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

Orb lady appears to have lost the plot and eaten the fruit of fascism
Alternatively she was never good and we just memed our way into thinking she was.
Wait, were there people who actually thought Marianne was even slightly good? She just seemed to me like a person with bizarre views on energies and shit who almost accidentally found herself in a position one iota to the left of the Democrats and who would instantly concede to the party line without even the slightest hesitation if she somehow managed to achieve power of any kind. AOC but farce. I think the orb jokes are funny but she'd do the exact same shit Biden and other genocidal fascists are doing
There was about a 10-minute period back in 2019-2020 where she Reiki crystal'ed her way into something approaching Labor Theory of Value, followed by a bunch of semi-coherent mouth noises that implied a generally antiwar approach to foreign policy. That was really about it; I think she was already irrelevant before we got to hear any takes on whether or not granola and wheatgrass could cure COVID.
People are desperate for a lib that isn't just a bloodthirsty trust fund nerd but the majority of them suck so bad that birkenstock wine mom who thinks war crimes really harsh the vibe is like the top 10% of the party morally.
she doesn't think war crimes harsh the vibe, she wants more. She attacked Obama for being too soft on Syria/Assad, stating he needed to invade
Yes I think that is the conclusion most of the leftists in my life and on this site drew from her platform over the years. Definitely also met some new age kind of liberals that thought she was their kind of radical too.
she attacked Obama for being too soft on Assad, stating he should have invaded when "red lines" were crossed like chemical weapon attacks. Imagine being more imperialist than Obama.
This is the second time the realization that she's shit has happened, I feel like Im losing it a little this shit happened in 2020 too
(It's this one)
many such cases
That's what the orb was the entire time.
She's hoping Trump will notice her and if he wins put her in his cabinet. Secretary of Orbsec - maybe?
“Minister of Liminal Affairs”
She was always like this lol
