If they really wanna increase turnout, these posters should be focusing their local candidates, making arguments tailored to those places and people. Give your neighbors a reason that's upfront and personal to show up on Tuesday.

There's nothing new to be said about the presidential side of things, harping on about it with the same arguments week after week and month after month is more likely to exhaust people and burn them out before november.

Yeah but that's actual political work. It's infinitely easier just to spit in your face and scream "VOTE FOR BRANDON OR YOURE A FASCIST"

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
