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

Okay but this actually makes me wonder: seeing as Biden is already overseeing a genocide in Gaza, why not just ban the Republican party or outright have Trump's citizenship revoked? Fascist yes, but he's already overseeing a genocide that's killed around 30,000 people, and the libs are promising us that Trump becoming president is going to be the absolute worst thing ever, so just have his citizenship revoked, or better yet, ban the Republican party and force conservatives to do better.

Yeah this right here is what I've been saying to liberals. If Republicans are such a threat, why not make it illegal to be one? Liberals think a society has to give fascists a fair shot at taking power or else...that's also fascism? I don't get what they want.

They want to lose and then gracefully accept that defeat.

It's the ideal state for liberals because it allows them to maintain the moral high ground but without the drawback of being expected to actually do anything.

That is, i think, what most of them believe and more or less how they would seriously articulate it.

You see, the law doesn't protect brown people ~~on the other side of the planet.~~ So genociding gazans is just a difference in opinion and nothing more. (Except if you have the wrong opinion, then you're antisemitic)
