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 don't really care about the stupid "classified documents stuff", I just think that it is funny that POTUS will not be charged because he is too cognitively impaired.

"He did not remember when he was vice president" is also funny. My son died and I was the Democratic VP was Biden's main pitch to the Dem primary electorate lmao.

man if these material conditions are not yet sufficient, we aint never getting no glorious people's revolution

the magic part is the unremitting system of extreme violence keeping the labor price of the global south as low as possible. material conditions are "good enough" pretty much for that reason alone. the other reason is the number and quality of guns and cameras pointed inwards.

I cant shake the feeling that revolution might come too late and wont be able to prevent a catastrophic collapse of human civilization caused by climate change.

I’d bet money on it… if money mattered after the collapse of human civilization.

We've still got 99 flavors of bread and all the circuses you could want. It's definitely going to have to get worse.

Too much propaganda has rotted the mind of the average Westerner, especially those from ex-Soviet and ex-Warsaw pact countries.
