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 [email protected]

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

This won't be a national incident like it should be.

There's a reason it's being linked off Imgur rather than getting front page coverage on the WaPo.

I mean, to be fair

And every other major publication covered it too.

I mean yeah not front page but its not being buried.

If the media really was biased in our favor as mainstream popular opinion likes to claim it is, the cops would be named and shamed on national TV and then tossed in jail for pretty much admitting they're going to let an adult felon walk free....because reasons.

Everyone is "tough on crime" until we're talking about the crimes normies like.
