Note: you don't have to agree with him on EVERY issue. Especially when he's genocide-ing innocent civilians and children. And if you have a problem with that, go ahead and vote for Trump.

Honestly anytime it’s revealed how much senators take as bribes it’s always comically low like $10,000 or some shit money like that. Like you’re literally killing the world and everyone on it for less than a brand new vehicle? Why the actual fuck are you even being corrupt for you fat little cooch.

Yeah, but Biden specifically is either WAY better at hiding it, or a genuine moron / ideologue for neoliberalism. Pelosi is a cartoon plutocrat, but Biden seems to just enjoy passing legislation that benefits nobody and hurts people. Like, he has done so much for the financial sector of the economy that his great-great grandchildren should be in the 50+ million bracket, and instead of that you have a guy who had to remortgage his own house to pay for his son's cancer treatment.

At that price, if you had a solid programming job you could afford to bribe a senator every few years.

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
