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

Once again, every JD Vance story I hear involves him somehow putting down his children or generally being a bad dad. And that's the stuff I hear out of his own mouth.

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

I wouldn't want any kids near him.

[–] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 21 points 8 months ago

I feel sorry for those kids for real

[–] Riffraffintheroom@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Am I missing something? This doesn’t sound like he’s shitting on his kid for playing pretend, it sounds like he’s shitting on young trans people by equating a child with gender dysphoria with a child playing pretend.

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 23 points 8 months ago

I assume he thought it was a clever joke to call his own children "batshit insane" but it kind of sounds like a Freudian slip. After all - he's describing the normal fantasy life little kids have. Plus there's what UlyssesT said.

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 16 points 8 months ago

He's using his kids to provide a negative example of behavior that he thinks shouldn't be taken seriously.

god i wanna hit him with a 2x4 so badly

[–] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 24 points 8 months ago (2 children)

From watching carpentry YouTube videos, I learned that most 2x4s in north America are lower quality because they're made from younger trees and because they're pine, they're very soft wood. What the people on the videos recommend is taking a 2x10 that's made from stronger wood, cutting two 2x4s from each edge, and then using that to smack JD Vance in the face.

thank you for your service rat-salute-2

[–] CantaloupeAss@hexbear.net 2 points 8 months ago

God, you go to the hardware store and 90% of the lumber is all warped to shit. You have to sort through a forest to find enough good pieces to use

[–] BashfulBob@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

What a waste. You could be using it to build a guillotine instead.

[–] jolliver_bromwell@hexbear.net 8 points 8 months ago

I’m gonna use the 2x10 method described by @TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net so there will be plenty left over to finish the job

Bit idea: dad who's totally supportive of his daughter transition but disowns her for rooting for the DAMN YANKEES!

[–] CantaloupeAss@hexbear.net 19 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Unironically a more respectable guy

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago

Trans daughter comes to thanksgiving in a Yankees cap.

Dad: "I don't have a daughter anyone!"

The pure existance of people like me or lgbt folks turns these ghouls like into a hell of their own making

Baby Vance: Daddy, I want to be a dinosaur for Halloween

JD: Those disgusting transgenders have gotten their hooks in my poor son. He thinks he’s a dinosaur!

[–] D61@hexbear.net 35 points 8 months ago (2 children)

No JD, you get your kid a kick ass dino suit like a real fuckin' father would. shocked-dino

[–] Diuretic_Materialism@hexbear.net 14 points 8 months ago

Or just tar and feather your child, same end result

[–] Flyberius@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

Did he really say this? Incredible...

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 27 points 8 months ago (2 children)

How long is it going to take to undo all the lies and ignorance these assholes spout? Transgender / NB people are not playing pretend it is not a fetish. This is who they are it is innate. Hard coded. You can't pray the trans / NB away. You can't conversion therapy the trans / NB away.

Those who preach the loudest are the worst offenders so I want to know what skeletons JD has hiding in his closet. Every single time you get a loud ass hate spewer like this there's some rent boy or caught a club or something projection

Religion Gone Bad by Mel White - he was a ghost writer for Christian evangelicals. He witnessed these hate spewers go on radio stations and do their hour long lying and hate spewing only to catch them making out on the couch later. Wasn't just isolated incidents either. When confronted they said "don't believe everything you hear on the radio".

Given that these same people still believe being gay is a choice, they won't, and they will never learn.

2-3 generations after they get released from re-education camps.

[–] Poogona@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

You'd get FEATHERS on dinosaur HRT anyway

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 23 points 8 months ago

Oh look. Their one joke.

Reactionaries are always opposed to imagination in all forms.

Anti-trans brainworms strikes again.

Death to America.

[–] LaughingLion@hexbear.net 13 points 8 months ago

violently resisting the urge to be a fedora atheist and make fun of him praying

I’m in favor of the pro-dinosaur agenda so I would
