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

It takes a lot of {gall|girl balls} to collect semen from a woman

I simply wouldn't be working on aerial death machines, but maybe that's just me.

officer-down

In case anyone is worried about whether it's shitty to celebrate this person's death, you can look at their linkedin profile and see that she's spent the last 8 years working on weapons, and bragging about how she has secret clearance. These are the little eichmans who tirelessly work to improve the efficiency of our imperial death machine, and there's a real possibly that her work improved the productivity of the military industrial complex enough to kill one or two extra people. pete

“She was known for her passion for... ... aviation and all things strange and unusual,”

the coroner probalbly thought so

she approached everything she did with dedication and enthusiasm, leaving a lasting impact on those she encountered.”

probably took some time to wash out

She died like a that one GTA V character who got juiced in a plane turbine.

Life imitates art.
