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

Isn’t “attacking the media” one of those things Trump does that libs consider a threat to our “democracy “?

So was giving a mentally unwell man the nuclear codes, once upon a time

[–] StalinStan@hexbear.net 9 points 5 months ago

To be fair, I have the nuclear codes. It was just 0000-0000

we need the blue guy with brain damage not the red guy, screw everyone who says we shouldn't put in another dude with brain damage

[–] MayoPete@hexbear.net 1 points 5 months ago

TBF giving a man who forgets basic facts the nuclear codes is safer than most alternatives. Can't use codes you don't remember!

What coalition is he talking about?? Biden’s coalition? Don’t you need various factions to form a coalition? According to liberals, third parties are undemocratic and only help Trump and Putin, so we don’t get to form coalitions with anyone.

The media coalition? I don’t think they’re gonna appreciate their companies being trashed by an already unpopular president, especially when all of them have been supporting Biden up until now.

I'm already seeing libs turn on the NYT. They've drunk so much of the kool-aid of "Any criticism of Biden for any reason is secretly an attempt to get Trump elected" and they've already developed their own BlueAnon lore and they're increasingly disconnected from reality, actively hostile to truth or evidence. With the situation in Ukraine being increasingly hard to deny, it's only going to get worse.

Biden pulls out the anti immigrant legislation, unwavering support of Israel, and a bad spray tan.

Libs: "Hey have you tried being Trump?"

He wants a man that was barely able to put together a sentence at the debate to go against the media? Aside from the fact they're already trying to write him off, in what world does he think that Biden has the wit to have a adversarial relationship with the media?

The coalition will respond

I'm like 90% that's a quote from The Downfall

That's the rub. I don't think biden is actually any better on any issue than trump.

Biden has helped create almost every bad thing in this country.
