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

Of course she's awful and has no integrity, but the "assault weapon" issue is kinda funny. Liberals have to pretend to support mandatory seizure, right-wingers have to froth at the mouth about it, and anyone capable of critical thinking knows it's completely unfeasible and wouldn't meaningfully impact gun crime.

Kamala Ocasio-Cortez (KOC) is just doing what the Wall Street banks want her to do, it's basic power dynamics. do you disagree?

[–] Owl@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

Yes, because this is a change for the wurst.

A link to a tweet of a screenshot of some text.

[–] TheVelvetGentleman@hexbear.net 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

It looks like a text box made in MS paint. It doesn't even have a period at the end. I know that the fracking one is verifiable because I read that recently, but this is pathetic.

In addition to changing her position [to opposing bans on fracking], campaign officials said she now backed the Biden administration’s budget requests for increased funding for border enforcement; no longer supported a single-payer health insurance program; and echoed Mr. Biden’s call for banning assault weapons but not a requirement to sell them to the federal government.

Sharing this source since the linked tweet was just a screenshot
