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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

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

Guys, I think if we win in 2024 we can PUSH THIS GUY LEFT. His name is Timmy Blackstone Google, and he owns ten butlers, and a private helicopter. But at least he's a Democrat, right? We can't let those fascist right-wingers win next November, right?

Also, I love that Sachs Goldman led the impeachment trial against Trump. He is fine with inheriting a fortune based on extracting labor from children in sweatshops. But breaking the sacred traditions of democracy? Sir, that cheeto has gone too far!

he's in those caucuses to prevent meaningful change, surely.

which would mean that he is doing a great job.

Pure LIB, no dilution just 100% LIB

Seriously though, this dork looks, sounds, and acts like he is pure liberal

Now all I need is to find out he is actually an ivy grad who failed upwards, supports a two state solution (like all liberals because the issue is 'complex' and 'nuanced'), pretends to like the gay community but does nothing for them, and thinks M4A and a reasonable minimum wage is pie in the sky nonsense
