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 would be real disappointed if that was true

Also, why are pronouns bad when we do it?

Actual communists would be trying to get Democrats on their side; they need them if they're going to stand chance at holding office or gaining seats. What you guys are doing is driving away the people you need the most. Your behavior makes no sense for a communist

I thought this was a joke at first, I'm serious. Not everybody on this site is from the US, but the democrats are a garbage party and do nothing for communists in the US either. Even if we had a one-party dictatorship of the democrats, they would simply re-create the two-party gridlock within their own party, as they have done numerous times in the past (Obama administration, Biden administration, various democratic strongholds such as California). They're increasingly not much of a party anyway, since they have no apparent means of forcing their own members to follow the party line.

I mean for one, you literally never hate on right wingers. That alone tells me everything I need to know about this place.

We literally do that all the time. You probably only found out about us after all this federation drama, during which we've been mostly making fun of all the goddamn liberals it's brought in, so that's why your perspective is skewed.

The point I'm trying to make is that you're not fooling anyone, MAGAts.

Motherfucker you are a fool.

Yeah, I read that comment as a joke too. I thought it was a bit because it was so perfect. Then I noticed where it came from and realized that that guy is actually serious.
