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

Is this it? Is Ro Khanna going to be the one to publicly say "tankie"?

[–] [email protected] 111 points 1 year ago

You can hear the big clock that says "Sitting President says the word 'Tankie' on live tv" at the top just ticked

"Hi, we're anarchists, and we're here today with the government to tell you why you should support the government."

Also Ro Khanna is one of the worst people in government. Crazy that all he had to do was call himself a 'Bernie progressive' and everyone accepted it with no receipts. Fuck Bernie too, of course.

They're really trying to recapture the popularity of that AOC stream. Only problem is that nobody gives a shit about these three and it will struggle to get halfway to 100k

The AOC stream had Hasan, Pokimane, Corpse Husband, and a few others that were at their peak during that time. I know people in my country who have heard of and are fans of Pokimane, Corpse Husband, and Hasan. I've never met anyone who's heard of Destiny, Vaush, or Keffals outside of this site and other leftist spaces on the internet.

Democrats doing events with people who have screenshot histories about the age of consent and sex with horses will not do the dems any favours with the crowd of people accusing them of being sexual deviants and pedophiles.

Va*sh, Keffals, and Destiny: 3 reactionary neoliberals on a single stream

[–] [email protected] 75 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Also aren't all three huge assholes outside of politics and the internet as well? I know very little about any of them, and anything I hear just makes them sound like straight up bad people.

[–] [email protected] 49 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Yes, they're all objectively horrible people, and I'm pretty sure that even the vast majority of libs who hold the exact same political positions as them would agree if they were actually exposed to the antics these three shitheads get up to.

The only way to make sense of this is that this Khanna guy has some massively online zoomer radlib dweeb on his team who went "Hey you should do a thing with these people, my fellow kids would love that" and he just rolled with it lmao.

You have to imagine this will get cancelled. People will tweet at Ro Khanna about Voosh being a proponent of beastiality and pedophilia and he'll have to cancel, right?

Ro Khanna entered the "find the three biggest morons on the internet" competition and won.

Congrats.

Has vosch stopped pretending being an anarchist?

[–] [email protected] 80 points 1 year ago (3 children)

His way of pretending to be an anarchist has always included being fully on board with the right wing of Amerika's slightly less right wing party, i don't see how this changes anything about his philistine charade.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 1 year ago (1 children)

And yes, i think V*ush doesn't get called philistine nearly often enough.

Remember when he had nothing negative to say to the proud and unrepentant Iraq war demon he was interviewing on stream

[–] [email protected] 56 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well he also told Hakim that the US should have bombed Iraq more, so i'm not really surprised that the chauvinist ghoul doesn't push back against an Amerikan war criminal and mass murderer.

[–] [email protected] 48 points 1 year ago

Fucking what?

Every day I am more and more vindicated for not knowing anything about v*ush besides his "enthusiasm" for horses

[–] [email protected] 47 points 1 year ago

He was "this is less shitty option guy", now he is "pal around with military industrial complex ghoul" guy. Interesting progression in 3 years, in 30 he'll probably will be head of space outreach at homeland security

[–] [email protected] 47 points 1 year ago

He has a pop culture version of anarchism going on, which is "DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" and in his case that includes sex offender things.

I am continually baffled by those kiddie diddling cryptofascist fucks being generally accepted as "the left" for purposes of public perception. I know it's working as intended, but I'm still baffled that it works. They're the Andy Warhols of our time. fedposting

Russell Brand, Zizek, Vaush, Orwell, Nathan J Robinson, the list goes eternally of almost-left cringelord creeps

the US Rep from Silicon Valley and this crew seems quite probable psyop territory

[–] [email protected] 52 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (16 children)

anecdotal, but if you search on youtube for 'naomi wu', the first 3 results are Vaush, Rebecca Watson and Keffals with some anti-Chinese gov videos from a month ago, so I'm assuming there's some shared judgement/agenda by those streamers to highlight negative stories about China

This isn't real. There is nothing to you can say to me or show me that would make this real. I refuse to even acknowledge that this could even potentially happen.

They've been teaching Ro about the tactical N word. They're going to use it to take down Trump.

Destiny is a right-winger. The man sided with Kyle Rittenhouse.

The rioting needs to fucking stop. If that means white redneck militia dudes mowing down dipshit protesters that think they can torch buildings at 10 PM, at this point they have my fucking blessing. Holy shit, this shit needs to stop. It needed to stop a long time ago.

Vaush and keffals are at least left-of-center. Destiny is probably closest to Joe Manchin or whatever in terms of politics.
