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

In 2014 when the genocidal Israeli occupation regime was doing another one of its massacres in Gaza, Bernie had a town hall event where he furiously raged at pro-Palestine activists about "Hamas tunnels".

deeply ashamed to have ever supported someone who said that, especially considering my support was for the 2016 & 2020 campaigns

I'm an alternate universe, Good Bernie savagely critiqued Hamas for not building this:

We openly longed for the day the revolution would put Bernie Sanders in the gulag for being too reactionary, and it hasn't even been a full election cycle.

SAD trump-drenched. I really expected him to be slightly less bloodthirsty, SAD!

Good on Tlaib and Omar though

To think the "Bernie is hiding his power level" joke was correct in the worst way possible. kiryu-pain

turns out it's a lot harder to sacrifice your conscience when you were directly victimized by the death machine you're being asked to sign off on.

Norm is such a blessing to have. Whatever his flaws, I treasure having him here with us and actively responding to these events as they happen.

Holy shit I did not expect him to rip Bernie a new asshole without reservation.
