The funny thing about the yankee empire is that we don't have a general concept of the empire. So, unlike say the brits' empire where people and the press might talk about what to do in this or that colonial holding, the core here largely only talks about local stuff. It's a weird kinda irony; the most extensive empire in global history is also the most parochial.

I mean, this is just stupid reactionary christian stuff. What's really interesting is that this stupid reactionary christian stuff isn't made different for coming from the core's core of empire. You find identical stuff coming from out of the way countries with little influence over anything. Poland, for example.

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
