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

Tackled inflation & lowered costs

Lemme just shell out 200 bucks for the store-brand variants of a week's load of groceries that USED to cost 50 if I was getting the ritzy settler brands. And the lie detector test determined... That was a lie.

Tackled the climate crisis

Lemme just look outside and see how it was in the 60s where I'm at for Christmas. We used to be able to count on a foot of snow being on the ground by now. The lie detector test determined... That was a lie.

Invested in Amerika and created good jobs

Lemme just check Indeed, Monster, and my local temp agency real quick... And the lie detector test determined... That was a lie.

Made Amerika safer from gun violence

Cops done shot up MORE PEOPLE THAN THEY HAVE FOR THE LAST TEN YEARS THIS YEAR ALONE. And the lie detector test determined... That was a lie.

Made higher education more affordable

Where's the debt forgiveness Joseph? And the lie detector test determined... That was a lie.

Strengthened democracy at home and abroad

You had hundreds of activists locked up between Palestinians and Black folk; more than half of them have been given RICO charges that will put them away for decades if not for the rest of their lives, and you claim you 'strengthened DEMOCRACY'? CRACKER PLEASE.

Confirmed highly qualified judges

Uh... Where? Who?
