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

but also ngl they're kind of making some decent points unironically
Yeah, as most struggle sessions do make some good points.
But then you have some guy proudly talking about his dad beating a dog with a stick and saying it was based cuz he's a POC. Like yes white people "luv my heckin doggo more than people" culture is cringe, counter jerking to it to the point you celebrate animal abuse is even more cringe.
yeah thats fucked up, ngl id only read like the first three comments or so when i commented
Wasn't that cause the dog was attacking him lol
Like in a fight a dog would probably kill a human so much easier than the other way around
Yeah, dogs, even relatively small dogs, can cause very severe damage very quickly. There's a reason that for a long, long time a dog that bit someone was immediately put down (rabies was also a factor). Even relatively small dogs can cause severe injury resulting in permanent disability. I really wonder if people realize how bad a dog attack can be and how quickly it can happen. Aggressive, reactive dogs aren't an embarrassment, they're a loaded gun and the owner has the safety off and the finger on the trigger. Muzzles should be the norm for any dog that's even remotely reactive when they're in public.
A big factor is; Most people can't meaningfully fight a dog. Many, probably most, dogs are big wimps who have no interest in a real fight. A dog that does decide it wants to fight, though, it's a small target, their heads are narrow, their organs are all under their body protected by ribs, they're very nimble. If you land a punch on a dog it probably won't do much, but if a dog bites, latches, and tears it's going to cause you immediate severe injury.
Again, most dogs aren't going to fight anyone in any circumstances. Even if they bite someone when they're cornered and scared they're just going to nip and retreat. But a dog that does commit to an attack is extremely dangerous, and the danger increased the smaller, younger, or older the victim is.
Nah this person is just fucked up.
