the_dunk_tank
It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

That entire first sentence is just projection. No, the majority of people do not agree that life is suffering. People still find enjoyment in life despite things not being good.
They don't realize that the Buddhist mantra means "Life always involves suffering" - it's not the same as "Life is inherently miserable". It's a reassurance, to prepare you for life and help you make sense of the chaos.
They're thinking of white western existentialism, which is largely self-pitying and useless.
Balderdash, existentialism does whippits
Can confirm. Troys' whippit problem exists.
