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
Nope. Not at all; in fact, I'd say that means you have a working sense of indignance and contempt because cracker democrats will smile in your face as they try and cudgel a vote out of you. The real sickening part is the moment it processes that their approach doesn't and will not work on you? That's when they get more hateful, more racist, more -phobic than the far right.
If you're Black, they'll tell you that not voting for them is a vote for everyone you love getting put up a tree by 'Trumpers'. When more than half of the dead Black martyrs over the last fifteen years have been slabbed out by Northerner cops in supposedly-Democrat cities; when it's been Democrats funnelling PDs military surplus via 1033, when it's been Democrats drafting up the plans for Cop Cities in the first place.
If you're any kind of Middle-eastern, bc trust, these crackers can't tell the difference, they'll invoke the subway attacks and random shootings that settlers keep orchestrating on ANYONE they think is Palestinian.
If you're any kind of LGBTQ, they'll invoke Project 2025 and breathlessly pearlclutch about how you'll lose everything the movement has gained if you don't support their genocide, because no one in the middle east has your rights like you do right here. Despite western Pride both not being a necessity to the outer world, AND already having been pinkwashed by cops and corporates thanks to the weak-link white gays to the point that if you look just across the pond at blahaj.zone, they're already eagerly slobbing on Democrat low quarters and we're only halfway through August.
And then, after all that, if their cudgeling still doesn't work? That's when they wish everything they just said on you directly, like some kind of peckerwood malediction. At least a fascist won't try to present himself as a friend just to take the mask off when it's clear I'm not buying what he's selling.
Thank you for typing this up. This is essentially my belief system but I couldn't be bothered writing it all down. The liberals I have known have done nothing but throw me under the bus at every opportune moment while still pretending to be my friend or care about my people.
