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

noooooo you can't do grassroots working class journalism, how will landlords' lawyers get their platform????
[rips off scooby doo mask] It was the landlords being racist?!
Awww Cenky does a xenophobia. Wonder why they went specifically after 
for this hawt story Cenk? Couldn't be because are are actively trying to overthrow the country and dehumanize the people to make it more acceptable to do further dastardly shit to them. Couldn't have been they came here in part because od our sanctions on the country. Let's not think of root causes and Empire motives. Gotta keep that froth going Cenk 
I was looking at the red horn thing in your post waiting for it to move before realizing I should go to sleep.
Famously unbiased legal teams
I love how libs were all smug about "just follow the money" when trying to assemble a narrative about Trump fraud and his rat fink helpers like Roger Stone but then when it comes to this shit they're like "yeah the people who are paid by Landgrab Estates say the apartment company did nothing wrong" and take it at face value. Follow the goddamned money, motherfuckers!
I will excuse my friends/family/class/status/hopes/dreams/fantasies, but I draw the line at my enemies! 
My dad was a lawyer… it’s literally their job to spin up scathing spiels based on complete fantasy if need be when preparing these “reports”.
TYT: We're not like mainstream media!
Also TYT:
Honestly I'm not even sure they claim that anymore I haven't watched them in forever and don't plan on watching anytime soon.
I know they're mainstream because my normie over 50 stepdad has been watching them a lot for the past year or so.
Cenk is arming up and going in to deal with these dastardly swarthy south americans by himself.
Convincing them to change their ways with :facts-and-logic:
Damnit we need an emoji for that
This is pretty close 
Police in the US can't STOP shooting nonwhite people, but I'm supposed to believe they just 'ceded a bunch of apartment blocks to Venezuelans'?
they had to because colorado is a DEI state. now the venezuelan gangs are DEI landlords, while real landlords worked hard to get where they are. but hey i guess that's just life now on comrade kamarxla's america
Denver has like the second or thrid worst housing prices in the us. My calculations prove that this is 1488% likely to be an eviction scheme to clear poor people out of rentals so they can jack the prices, or even bulldoze and build condos. We need an emoji of fred taking the mask off a real estate crook.
likely to be an eviction scheme to clear poor people out of rentals so they can jack the prices, or even bulldoze and build condos.
Shit, olde timey movie plots are back in vogue.
No, it doesn't, not even close.
Such a god damned idiot. Stayed with Ana after her going batshit transphobe so the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Scratch a liberal, a fascist bleeds
Holy shit, I'd only seen a couple clips of him arguing with Hasan, I didn't know he was this deranged!
We need to study the phenomenon of generational chuddery. It has to be more than rebelling against your elders, why do chud parents raise so many socialists and why do socialist parents raise so many mayo petes?
dialectics
Just finding out about the origin of their channels name and how he felt on the topic put me on game
Chunk Yogurt
Oh this is what people in the denver socials have been about.
Jfc. Just, fucking fascists.
So this is probably a scooby doo real estate scam to evict everyone and bulldoze the proprty to build condos or something, right?
Oh i didn't realize this was cenk.
The aurora pd are the one's who murdered Elijah McClain in cold blood a few years ago. They poisoned him with ketamine and he died begging for his life. Sure, send in the cops, Cenk. " the young turks" really was a clue all along.
This guy went from vaguely leftist to unironic fox news our cities are war zones. Hell of a transformation.
If there were even the slightest hint of a whisper of an echo of this story being true, APD would run wild with it. But they showed up and even they had to admit it was bullshit.
Like APD has always been notorious out there. So, idk, if they're not using this for scare tactics, then the most nothingest burger.
From the chuds I've heard talk about it, the APD is in on the DEI conspiracy. Deeply unserious people.
gd, is the strat for them just to be too exhausting to argue with?
Never believe that chuds are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The chuds have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
Mr. Xi, you missed one
Man it's really vindicating to have figured out this guy was full of shit when I was like 16.
"Ceding us territory"
Lmao fuck off you reactionary dumbass.
I made an account just so I could complain about this BS story and find other information about it. Anyone who believes this is completely baby brained.
What a goddamned tool
The only gang in Aurora is the Aurora PD
Right? This shit would be hilarious if it wasn't so grim. How many non-white people are there even in denver, like 7?
I've only seen like three people arrested since i moved here and, shockingly, 33% of those people were black despite black people being some ridiculously tiny fraction of the population in this metro.
I just recently visited Denver, and oddly Aurora, a couple weeks ago and got the exact opposite impression. It looked like there were a ton of minorities in the area. Especially the amount of shops selling ethnic food and the like. As you drove down Broadway, you could see it change from like Hispanic to Korean to Greek I think it was.
Yeah, like Denver metro isn't as diverse as a lot of cities, but Aurora has housed some of the more diverse areas for like a generation. A lot of immigrant communities have landed there in the last 15 years too.
Aurora's also huge geographically though, so impressions might be different depending on what part of town you stay in.
Unrelated: Hey, anyone want to talk about Armenian stuff for a quick sec? Specifically stuff that, apparently, didn't happen.
Shame that Adam Johnson is not on fedi/Lemmy
