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

Americans are incapable of understanding they’re bad people with or without the help of an external boogeyman

But conservatives are only bad because foreign interference

Without it they'd go back to being respectable republicans like Ronald Reagan

I think the line is their bad because their dumb and let themselves be controlled or are selfish and are letting themselves be controlled for personal enrichment.

Give it another year or two and you'll see Xi being compared to Fu Manchu

I bet somewhere he was already long ago. Multiple western publications including The Economist already portrayed him as the Qing emperor.

Crucially none of these armband wearers are the actual nazis the democrats are supporting

[–] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago

There's only one Nazi who's obsessed with the letter X and it isn't Xi Jinping.

MCU brained political analysis

[–] [email protected] 43 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Feels like a call of duty game plot, first it's the russians but then plot twist it was the dastardly chinese all along.

Battlefield 4 I think

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago

It's way stupider than MCU, inside that universe the reality is being more firmly grabbed by participants and their conspiracy plots are less convoluted and more proven.

Remain calm, giga Xi Patriots are in control.

Did Putin chop down a blood tree

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 months ago

He was just refreshing the tree of liberty.

bath salts, likely

[–] [email protected] 29 points 5 months ago

I can't help but to think that even when I was a liberal I'd be like jesse-wtf

[–] [email protected] 28 points 5 months ago

Breath of settler, its strong shit makes you lose all grasp on reality.

Libs sharing way to much about the fetishes they're into.

just some extremely large round boys, no need for alarm

That is the most Dr. Seuss ass Putin I’ve ever seen and I’m kinda here for it

[–] [email protected] 14 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Shows Putin with bloody axe

American bombs and military equipment - the thing Biden has been giving Israel for months now and desperately wants to give them much more of - have killed far more children in Gaza than have been killed in the SMO.
