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

... does this person live in the same universe as I do? I had a comment deleted from .world for calling out someone for being racist, but the racist comment is still up.

When people call US party politics "polarized", they are obfuscation things because there is a way in which it is very false and one in which it is very true. The parties are not radicalized in opposite directions [i.e. having contrary radical views], the Dems are just Diet Republicans. They are, however, highly dogmatic [i.e. intolerant of contradiction].

.world is not radical compared to any Republican space, but it is certainly dogmatic in its "moderate" views being enforced.
