Not me casually stealing your comments and replying with them on the posts you're quoting while disabling replies on reddit so they can scream at a brick wall about jerking off to line graphs or whatever it is they do there <3

The question at the heart of Atlas Posted, "Who is John Tankie?".

I remember someone from that sub telling a Jamaican that the US fucking over their country was bad but the US as a whole was still a net positive to their country. One of those moments where I wished I could reach my fist through the screen and squeeze his pencil neck like a tube of toothpaste.

I wish we had as much power as these people think we do

Social media completely changed the way opinions disseminate. It would take a miracle to see any President above 50% again. Trump social media machine was very, very effective, a lot better than Biden's, and he was only 0.7% above.

It would take a far greater miracle to have a president that activates the government for anyone except the top 1% of the 1%.

Trump social media machine was very, very effective,

I have no fucking idea how you can be a fullblown believer of the status quo and neoliberalism. Unless you are doing really fucking good for yourself. I find Qanon Trumpers distasteful but at least they seem to be aware that something "aint" right...they just come to completely wrong conclusions.

We should do what Israel is doing to Palestine to the PMC in Chicago

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
