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

Must be so scary living in America you might get shot by the cops because someone else wasn't doing anything wrong.

Imagine commuting back from your job, when suddenly you hear shoots around you. You look and see two police officers using your car as cover while they shoot a suspect in a UPS car just two cars in front on you.

I was trying to figure out a way to weave this story into my post but couldn't. Being forced to drive in traffic is bad enough without the threat of being filled with lead

I fucking hate new york state. I really don't know how we have a reputation of being a progressive state when the politicians make it a priority that if poor people want to actually have public transportation they better know they're at constant threat of being gunned down by the gestapo.

They have that reputation because they vote liberal, that's it

Yea but everybody in new yprk knows that only dems win in the state so everybody just calls themselves a dem (trump) and as a result we get "liberals" like Eric Adam's who's top priority is siding with cops against people trying to smoke legal pot.

Adams himself was a registered Republican for most of his life.

And Dem voters are either conservatives or too dumb to see they're being bamboozled over and over again.
