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.

California. Democrats have had a super majority for as long as I can remember and nothing has changed but the date.

They are pushing the homeless into concentration camps though, so that's something.

no no sweaty, you don't understand. Public transport has expanded by...couple miles. A gay marriage was signed and immigrants with a pell grant and small business that has existed for 4 years get a tax break for a year as long as they work at a FAANG company and have eligible overtime!

What's that, rent too high? Our hands are tied! Homeless problem? Our hands are tied! Rising car-prices and gentrification pushing more people out of mobility and affordable neighborhoods with jobs? Our hands are tied!

Don't vote Jill Stein or La Cruz. But you better vote, don't you know your neighbors are watching?

Homeless problem? Our hands are tied!

They're hands are tied to do anything positive for the homeless. They're very willing and able to hurt them though

Btw California only ever voted to make gay marriage illegal, in 2008. The state legislature never did anything about it.

They're working hard at unshackling tech companies so they can find new and innovative ways to exploit people!
