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

Original tweeter made this stonetoss edit to "criticize" Shaun for this tweet.

yeah, let's sacrifice America to the Republicans on a single issue, that will work

That single issue is genocide, it's not like, a small child tax credit expiration or something. What the fuck is wrong with liberals? If the single issue was something small, fine, but this is LITERALLY GENOCIDE we're talking about. That single issue is monumental and they're happy to just ignore it. Libs are peppino-scream

I love how this is a personal individual choice and not the consequence of national forces beyond any lay schmoe's individual control.

I feel like I'm being reprimanded for praying to the wrong God.

You only matter in US politics one day every four years (two if you're spicy) in November.

And that's largely just to assign blame.

Other days it's sit down, shut up, and let the adults in the room do their jobs. You can't possibly understand politics and criticizing our politicians will only make them lose.

it's really funny that making memes out of a nazi comic is just, like, a normal thing for redditors to do. as if it's just a normal instagram 4 panel gag strip. and i know the excuse is that by changing the comics they're somehow owning stonetoss with his own logic but that's clearly not the case, it's just a guy who hates jews and queers and blacks getting free attention because these people are incapable of expressing an idea without ragefaces. like he doesn't care that you wrote that he's a nazi. if he didn't want to be called that he probably wouldn't act like a nazi all the time.
