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

When the Overton window goes from Hitler to Mussolini, you get MSNBC being a "left-leading" news channel.

"What radicalized you?"

No one: "Morning Joe."

There's cowardice and then there's whatever the fuck this is

Even knowing how quickly liberals would roll over historically, I'm still shocked by the enthusiasm they're doing it with

"left leaning"

Wasn't the whole point of Morning Joe that Joe Scarborough is a conservative?

[–] Darth_Reagan@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Left leaning means pro-democratic party

[–] DigitalNirvana@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

This investigation is taking unexpected turns! Conservative Crooks AND Morning Joe were both involved? Crazy!

Still cracks me up to think that Mika's dad literally, and not figuratively, literally responsible for 911

Watching her flirt with Scarborough is my own personal 9/11

Maybe now the tankies can learn a thing or two about how to actually do politics with respect. Remember Tiananmen square or kronstadt where you oppressed 100000 people for wanting democracy. Remember when the peace loving israeli were brutally terrorist crimed by hamas. Vote and stop larping tankiee.

I thought this was the US version of "Alo President", but I knew Biden is not as cool as Chavez to do that.
