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

Dude my back hurts so much you have no idea.

[–] sisatici@hexbear.net 38 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like somebody is not going to gym to work their back muscles. As Mao said, not working out is another type of liberalism

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago (2 children)

What helps with lower to mid back pain. Couldn't sleep last night because of a knot :(

[–] sisatici@hexbear.net 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I dunno much tbh. But I know you should have good back muscles to prevent backpain at older ages. My dad was very happy about how his back has no pain even at old ages because he worked it in construction

[–] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 10 months ago

That's 50:50. A lot of workers come out the other end of a construction career with fucked backs!

I hate that even a non-american dumbfuck like myself was able to predict all of this. Liberals are absolutely pathetic

[–] sisatici@hexbear.net 37 points 10 months ago

They were too high on their own propaganda.

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 32 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Even as a yank, I feel embarrassed that I never listened to my gut instinct in the first place. If I did, I could have told you that Trump would have won months ago but I was still uncertain calling it going into election night

[–] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hey, I'm a dumbass who switched my opinion within the final week and made a post on my prediction. Should have gone with my gut too.

[–] dumpster_dove@hexbear.net 3 points 10 months ago

He didn't have the same energy as in 2016, especially after the assassination attempt, so it's only fair to have been uncertain about his chances.

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 108 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Oh look we were right again.

Another election cycle of immediatly going from being told to fuck off because they didn't need us to blaming us for their failure.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 71 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

You probably didn't even need to hit show to know what this picture is

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 54 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I hate being correct all the time. It's a curse

[–] Sickos@hexbear.net 2 points 10 months ago

:cassandra:

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 101 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Ah yes the famous communist members of the democratic party. The ones who exist, and aren't just figments of the minds of red-scare addled genocidaires.

[–] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 10 months ago

The troubling thing is they're referring to the people they call communists. Like the dem members who advocate for introducing 1 day paid sick leave for all or raising minimum wage to $8.

[–] CthulhusIntern@hexbear.net 77 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Now his conclusion will be "we need to remove the far left because they make us lose".

[–] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 21 points 10 months ago

If only there was say a final solution or something

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 14 points 10 months ago

parenti-hands nonfalsifiable orthodoxy

[–] Cowbee@hexbear.net 74 points 10 months ago

Destiny posting L takes will never not be funny debatejak

[–] GenderIsOpSec@hexbear.net 71 points 10 months ago (1 children)

finkelstein-lambaste Mr. Divorcelli, please shut the fuck up.

[–] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 29 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Norman is the real OG and should be our mascot forever next to Yellow Parenti

[–] glimmer_twin@hexbear.net 7 points 10 months ago

He has some boomer opinions about gender and shit, but I guess everyone’s full of contradictions

[–] Tabitha@hexbear.net 70 points 10 months ago

very-smart ah yes, the candidate with zero tankie policies and zero tankie associates and zero positive relations with tankie countries and zero tankie projects and zero tankie outreach has too many tankies.

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 69 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It ain't gonna work the next time either

[–] graymess@hexbear.net 22 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That graphic is funny as fuck. I don't know what the Democrats expected. dead-dove-2

[–] ComradePupIvy@lemmygrad.ml 8 points 10 months ago

they expected atleast a 50 50 split

[–] vegeta1@hexbear.net 66 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Guy wished white supremacist ran over protestors. I hope his kid is kept as far away from this poisonous lump as possible

[–] SuperNovaCouchGuy2@hexbear.net 28 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Its so fucking grim to think that this piece of human trash is the father to another person. Poor kid. He is absolutely not prepared to be a parent at all.

[–] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 10 months ago

Think about Barron

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 65 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Mr. Bonerelli has sent a silly letter. We shall neither print it, nor reply.

[–] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 28 points 10 months ago (1 children)

This is Finkelstein level diss and I'm here for it

[–] Aru@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 10 months ago

Lenin said smth like that

[–] Comrade_Mushroom@hexbear.net 58 points 10 months ago

By far, the best part of this outcome is being fully aware that scum like this fool are absolutely seething right now, and will be for years.

[–] Alisu@hexbear.net 57 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Just make the democrats all go to the republican party already

[–] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 18 points 10 months ago

Too late by like 30 years when was bill Clinton elected again?

[–] roux@hexbear.net 54 points 10 months ago

The far left aren't part of The Party tho, dumbass.

[–] Fishroot@hexbear.net 51 points 10 months ago

Least abuser sounding statement

[–] dkr567@hexbear.net 50 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

This guy is a person version of a malignant tumor since his g*mer days and will always be a cancer.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 47 points 10 months ago

In a just society someone like this would’ve been taken out back and shot already

[–] kleeon@hexbear.net 44 points 10 months ago

bold for this guy to call anyone else cancer

"Turn out our own base"

what fucking turn out? They didn't even offer their own voters anything.

[–] ChaosMaterialist@hexbear.net 12 points 10 months ago

What's really funny is how they lost and yet libs call for the same thing. Why wait :LIB: until elections to do your purges?
