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

Harris Campaign Doesn't Want DNC Going Too Hollywood, Limiting Celeb Involvement (www.tmz.com)

Meanwhile the last moneybeg.....Hey it's really me Mark Hamill!

Harris-Walz campaign wants to be smart about celebrity involvement, and is working hard to avoid the Chicago-based DNC being painted as a "Hollywood liberal elite" event.

....

the campaign feels Hillary Clinton gave celebrities too big a platform back in 2016 and it backfired on her ... and they don't want to overdo the Hollywood aspect to the point where it turns off everyday folks.

Ohhhh I was there it was sooooo condensending. First they played Bridge Over Troubled Waters (cause ya know how much they knew WE knew they fucked Bernie over) then they sent out Sarah Silverman who got booed and she chastised the Bernie wing. "TO THE BERNIE OR BUST PEOPLE YOU'RE BEING RIDICULOUS".

Could you imagine Mark Hamill getting booed on stage? God I love how made a permanent trama burn in the DNC. If anything It was worth that.

Install a massive Native American/Communist flag and assert dominance.

Is there any law in the US that the US flag must fly above other flags?

Because that would be awesome.

Giant 100 foot flagpole with a Soviet flag the size of a house, topped with one of those teeny tiny little American flags on toothpicks that weirdoes get for fourth of July parties. "I am following the law to the letter, any further attempt on your part to get me to modify my flagpole and what I'm flying on it is a violation of both the first amendment and the US flag code. Enjoy!"

Is Violating the Flag Code Illegal?

No. While the U.S. Flag Code is a federal law, guidelines are only stated within the voluntary and non-binding language such as, "should" and "custom," meaning there is no penalty for violating any of its provisions. This is because of the Supreme Court's act in declaring the law unconstitutional in United States v. Eichman.
