At first sight there’s a point to be made here about trust in institutions that you’d think “Well surely if this was dangerous it wouldn’t be allowed” or something, like if this was a tourist dive bell that went wrong I’d argue I wouldn’t get in it because I have 0 trust in institutions but your average person, yeah sure.

Hell I’d extend that even to the “in case of death we ain’t owe you shit” waiver as those seem way too common. But at the point where it says “the submarine is not tested or certified by any regulatory body” in plain text and you don’t have some sort of mental disability that’s on you, that’s entirely of on you, if the words “untested, unregulated submarine” don’t register to you as “stay clear” there’s nobody left to blame and also it’s hilarious

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
