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

It really is. Every time I see it I get pissed off that I didn't think of it first.
"Better for who?":honk:
"BETTER FOR WHO?" MOTHERFUCKER?
:funny-clown-hammer: :big-honk:
why do you even consider yourself a socialist at that point? like, you look around at the immense suffering capitalism necessitates and you think "hm, we should stop that," but then you look at the empire built by and for the class that the whole system is designed to keep in power and you think that somehow they accidentally created a good, progressive global hegemon?
fuck i'm actually reading it and their reasoning is "yes, the US might not be perfect, but at least it crushed any possibility for international communism with brutal efficiency!" you're just a liberal man. you're just a normal liberal. your politics are not significantly different from those of your lib parents. you would knock on doors for kirsten gillibrand's campaign if she said please.
A single mom working at a bar contributes to drunk driving accidents, alcoholism, and domestic violence, but you'd never call out the workers as being the problem there, right?
Die
They're just Keynesian chauvinists in DSA clothing.
Keynes and his consequences have been a disaster for the human race
Keynes was the OG "I can fix her" dude but it was for capitalism instead of a problematic partner
"But a line worker installing high voltage lines, is also responsible for bankrolling the rich factory owners that mistreat their workers."
"bankrolling"
Umm guys the proletariat kinda bankrolls the bourgeoisie so it's really their fault.
