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

Imagine uprooting your entire life just to vote for Genocide Joe

yeah idk I get people with no attachments can just do this (I mean not for electoralism but just moving across the country willy nilly), but it feels like such a sad alienated way to live long term, rather than putting down roots, making friends, etc.

Even if you had no attachments, why would you do anything for the Democrats? They don't care about you

getting a job fundraising for democrats and moving to a swing state to vote republican because i make more money losing

Ever think about moving to a state where your vote might actually make a difference?

people with real problems are absolutely doing this all the time, yeah.

places you might even want to stay after the election

Really insane video. This guy is completely unhinged. Who's moving to a city and then moving out after the election. That is so fucking crazy

Its pretty bad, but that particular part is definitely sarcasm

Lol he delivers it so dry that it's hard to tell

This feels like the Team Blue equivalent of when Fox News hosts pontificate on the transcendental nature of flyover country, when they all live and work in the NY metro area. If it’s so important to have those swing state votes, maybe the Dems could expand their infrastructure and important HQs into swing and red states? Y’know, build real parties there and relocate themselves there instead of trying to guilt voters into moving.

Is there anything more pathetic than a lib?

"Hello, I'm Eddie Simp-Cuck and I'm here to show you how you can help the democrats! Because you wanna - right?!?"

I wonder if he ever uploads a video on something actually important to his wheelhouse like increasing affordable housing - CityNerd. I know, I know. I'm being a crazy person.
