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

I'd hardly call thumb-twiddling for four years straight "great and successful". In some cases, worse.

Not only did Biden completely enable fascists to pull sneaky moves left and right to pretty much operate as if they're in Trump's second term, but no doubt the very fact that Biden wears a blue tie is still too scary for most oil and gas companies, so I wouldn't be surprised if half of their increased gas prices are some form of capital strike to get people to vote republican.

Biden is as powerful as watered-down Miller lite, and to most of the country he's still seen as a dangerous, far-left radical just because "gay people and women bad" isn't his number one priority.
