An Andy Ngô tweet is currently at the top of #blm.(hexbear.net)

I mean I think since white people tend to be more privileged, they have big Karen energy they can use against the cops. Like especially privileged people who have to face injustice for the first time from a situation like this will have a better chance of having the resources and energy to do something about it. And my guess would be cops might actually think a little harder about causing a fight.

I think there’s some merit to the strategy but it’s context dependent, and going overboard means you could end up with like, a crowd of winemoms trying to give the cops a Pepsi or something.

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
