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 [email protected]
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

I agree, optics wise having a conjunctival bleed when you're trying to pretend you are not too old is bad timing (great comedic timing though). Just like saying only god could make you drop out and then getting covid19.
I'm just saying human bodies are funny things and that your eye spontaneously filling with blood is humorously both benign and the kind of meaningless thing that can just happen.
Had it happened to someone like Jeremy Corbyn for example, you'd get endless articles about how medically unfit he is, which would be false. (For reference this happened in September 2019 when Biden was still demented but not the shambling husk he is today).
