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

YOU KNOW WHAT ELSE PUTS LIVES AT RISK? 
yes, a tiny slowdown in treat delivery for example.
They get so fucking precious about the roads. Ford-brained little globs of puke
carbrain right off the bat 
They're just concern trolling for imaginary ambulances that might need to make their way through again. I remember seeing a Hong Kong color revolution video back when leddit was fawning over them and they blocked highways then. An ambulance drove by and stopped, and the color revolution agents simply scooted over to let it through.
The only reasons this doesn't happen in the US are because nobody can afford an ambulance and because someone always tries to Truck the protesters to death within minutes anyway.
well that and if you've ever been on an SF Bay bridge you'd know a single car stalled could snarl traffic up across the whole goddamned bay area for hours and no one is going fucking anywhere
Every protest I've ever been a part of just lets ambulances by, it's fairly simple.
Ah yes, because it's impossible for someone to care about genocide without it being about the ulterior motive of their self image. Famously, anti genocide is just a cutsie little insignificant cause.
We assume of others what we know of ourselves. These people don't give a shit about genocide, so they can't imagine anyone else genuinely doing so.
Well put. I need to remember that line for the future.
These people would’ve been useless during the holocaust. Constantly complaining about how the emotional campus Jews should protest at the Nuremberg rallies if they cared so much about genocide
I've been saying to everyone who will listen, however you're reacting now to Al Aqsa Flood is exactly how you would have reacted then to the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising
The type of people who'd refuse to wear a mask during a plague because it'd mostly benefit others at the cost of some mild inconvenience to themselves
Can you imagine the hubris of needing to be convinced to care about genocide? At least a Republican is like "I get that it's awful, but they're brown." Then they agree with you about Israel being illegitimate and you probably shouldn't associate with them.
But really, to think it's a complicated issue whether the 10s of thousands of deaths could even begin to be justified because some people took hostages. To never even take a moment to ask why people in an open air prison who have tried unsuccessfully to leverage peaceful means to end an illegal occupation have the vengefully upset among them. It's a bad joke 
So many PMC shitheads have this attitude and I hate it. It's so patronizing and privileged
Incredibly high sense of self importance they basically want you to beg for their support. And if you ever get their support it will amount to nothing anyway cos they exist only to boost their own ego.
These people are worms who lead insignificant lives. Activists don't even need to outnumber them. They just need to keep pressing.
or suggested the forced relocation of Israelis to Germany.
This is the real and only reason why they’re upset
Valid reasons as to why America should be a smoldering crater: People like this
Funny, because if I said I don't like the right because they're rude to me, that's being sensitive.
