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 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.

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
just different i guess.Abruptly stand up and challenge the speaker to a debate. Your opening statement should be a 15-minute monologue that invokes your IQ, your depth of knowledge of Milton Friedman's literature, and your immunity to simple emotional appeals. Leave the ball in their court. But they'll simply be too stunned to respond with anything but silence and awe. They'll concede, and you will likely get a standing ovation and a few phone numbers.
this has to be satire right? the invoking iq part cant be serious
The entire post is tagged as a meme.
Doing the John Galt speech irl and getting spitballs fired at you the entire time

I just attended a Marxist lecture for extra credit and had to sit there while the guest condoned not voting, claimed Obama didn't end the war, and called the 2009 loans bailouts. Please make me feel better before I puke.
I'm not joking my more immediate coping mechanism was the catering provided so I had a lot of cookies.
One of the top comments is telling OP to lie about their politics to sleep with people 
They really do like Obama.
It often doesn’t work because they think idpol is all they need to be correct on and can’t be fucked to read enough theory so that they can bullshit through it
Two top comments is how deep I'll let myself go, and both of them mention reading Dune, one of them as theory. Liberal injokes are lame.
I'm still not sure if those top two comments are leftists making fun of them or not
a little bit of column A and a little bit of column BI just went to a lecture where the lecturer told me a bunch of true things I don't like and now I'm shaking and crying uncontrollably 
You did it! You broke down CHUDs to their bare essentials!
Honestly I'd argue being open to feedback is the primary requirement to succeeding at...well most anything long-term. So it's not exactly a small difference
i think people of almost every political position like to flatter themselves by saying they're uniquely receptive to feedback and new information and therefore a superior critical thinker. like, saying it does not make it so.
What war did Obama end/not end?
I imagine they're talking about Iraq? Which Obama eventually pulled out of past the timetable Bush set. And only after many successive parliamentary votes by the Iraqi people for the Americans to leave. And then during his second term it collapsed into another civil war and Obama went back to Iraq.
He waged 13 of them, so the choice is broad.
“The.” Oh you don’t know which war was “the”? Shame. Sounds like someone hasn’t been keeping up with their news.
Obviously, “the” war is the one most prominently covered by US media. The other ones are only sparkling wars.

That lecturer was actually me.
"They insulted Obama. OBAMA. please make me feel better and coddle my insecurities, reaffirm my biases plesae"
Actual adult children. neophyte brainage. how are these people real
How is Dune like scripture to these people? I don't get it.
I think it's an in joke satirizing leftists, but I really don't know
Oh ok. Seems pretty unserious because it makes no sense, but I suppose that fits too.
They had to see a homeless person?
Users of that subreddit would better serve the planet as fertiliser.
