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

Because the government is a terrorist state that sponsors genocide and the branches of that terrorist state sponsor terrorism globally.

Ah, but you need 60 seats in the senate to bypass the filibuster. And even though there are procedural workarounds, you need the blessing of the parlimentarian, a sacred and infallible office where it would be braking the sacred norms to use our powers to ignore them or replace them. /s

why yes the GOP uses that method each time but if the dems do it gop will still use it when in power.

Amazing how it never used for good only bad in order to totally prevent it being used by GOP/bad
