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

say it with me:

abstaining from voting is not the same as voting for republican

voting a third party is not the same as voting for republican

the democrats never had my vote in the first place because they dont care about me and want me to die. well and also because im not american, but you know.

They're basically admitting that they consider themselves entitled to everyone's vote by default.

They don't care. Their whole world view is based on them being the "good people." That's why they never have to reevaluate their positions, and believe that they "can't fail, the can only be failed."

I used to like/tolerate some of my city-level Dems for some half-decent stuff they did with the schools and infrastructure, but then they started saying bombing hospitals was self defense and even they lost me.

I’m glad to see that people on hexbear talk less about supporting local democrats these days. I used to be involved in local politics, and the local democrats are just as shitty as the state and national ones.
