  • In a similar vein I’m kind of curious to hear black opinions about the name dunk tank.

    sure here’s mine. while “dunking” does make me think of basketball the “dunk tank” is very much the thing you try to dump clowns into at state fairs in my mind. i used to love to watch clowns get dunked as a kid I was low key devastated when I learned the history. just saw one this weekend and thought “uhg”.

    I feel like dunking is one of the safest ways to conjure empowering black imagery, even directly over white people

    uhhhh… no. and yeah that is a bit weird vibes wise I gotta say. like if we tried to use an image of Black basketball player dunking on a cracker that would be off considering the vibes of the former dunk tank. its mostly white people dunking on other white people. it would be giving

    this vibe, is something we were all complaining about in the empoc weekly thread this week. so no I would not find that to be “empowering energy”
