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

For context, Trump tweeted out a video condemning the storming of capitol hill. Trump also said that he is now committed to a peaceful transition of power and that Biden will be the US president in the video.

They stormed the halls of power and... stood there. Walked around, took selfies, tried to get through a door and got booped, booped a cop on the head with a fire extinguisher. That was their chance to do anything with a more symbolic prize than anything the Soviets had in 1905, but reactionaries are too fucking stupid to do anything but tweet pictures of themselves committing sedition for no discernable reason. Of course he betrays them when that's the best they can muster even with police holding their hands and guiding them into the building.

“Here’s how Trump can still win.”

I've been over there harvesting salt for the last few minutes. I wish it was possible to include images in replies, but for now I'm making an imgur gallery.

"Get fucked. Seriously. I am now saying it. FUCK TRUIMP. He's disrespected everything we've risked our lives for. Edit: I have a right to dislike Trump for this video. You saw what I saw yesterday. That was not Heinous. That was not violent and those patriots were not threatening anyone. An unarmed woman, who served for this country lost her life. I have been a pede since 2015. I respected Trump for everything he did for us, but he has now abandoned us and disrespected everything we believe in. I have a right to be angry. He can go fuck himself in this video."

"it's a deepfake".

Lmaooo

:agony-consuming:

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

obviously it's not, but they're right that it feels off. trump's following a script to the letter and being civil, something that's out of character for him

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago (1 children)

My favorite take was that TRUMP made the deepfake, to prove how easy it is to fool the media, and then he was going to reveal his trickery to prove that China and Italy (?!?!?!) stole the election.

lmao

There's a post on there that goes "do not let the Italians get away with this" and I'm just wondering what sort of 8D chess led to that conclusion

the eye-talians have gone too far smh

I'm going to make a post that goes:

“Trump is too smart to believe the media narratives” is peak delusion

"this is pretty accurate".

Trump's entire life is a media narrative of some sort, what rock do chuds live under :agony-turbo:

To be fair we have the same sentiment with Bernie + the squad on a daily basis

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 years ago

fuck you man, the squad really believes in medicare for all, someday, at least for those who open and operate a business in an urban area of central delaware for five years
