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

lol go canvass for Biden if you love Genocide Joe so much, libs. Put your feet to the street and show us how the importance you ascribe to this election translates into mobilization. See how well you can motivate people lol.
Oh, you're just gonna whine in advance about your likely loss? Cool. Most important election ever?
PS commies don't vote for libs for president, we're not on your team and you can't shame us into supporting capitalism or genocide. Go shame your racist peepaw, you'll have better luck and you're waaay closer to him ideologically.
Truly honest question here so I can understand you: who are you voting for then? Are you ok with a man who has no problem calling for a genocide of his own right here in the US as well as hunting down and killing/hauling people for disagreeing with him? What real alternative is there right now in 2024? Any situation where people are killing others like what's happening to Palestine is unacceptable absolutely and unconditionally. But does that mean we should welcome a regime that is going to do the same here to people like you and me on principle?
Basically, what are you planning to do? All I saw in this reply was "I'm not like you and you can't make me be like you." What are you planning to do to enact the change YOU want to see?
The Democrats have proven time and time again that they won't lift a fucking finger to protect anyone, even those they claim to support, from violence. They'll tut and wag their finger, but will never actually step in to protect trans rights, for instance. They won't when they're in power, and they won't when they're not. Roe v Wade was broken up under a Democratic president. Vicious anti-queer laws were passed country wide under a Democratic president. The Democrats didn't do shit
"Oh but the President's power is limited", "oh but those are state level affairs", "oh but-" shut the fuck up. Either the office of the president is powerful enough for the threats you talk about to be credible, or it's weak enough that a president can't stop those threats. You get to choose one, not both. And frankly, any fucking country where the President doesn't have an ability or will to bring the provinces/states of that country to heel is a failed country
If the Democrats gave half a shit, they'd be fighting tooth and nail for trans rights across the country. They would use every legal method, every grey area, they would drag the Republican state senators into the oval office and threaten to CIA coup their ass if they don't knock it off. If trans rights or a genocide of some group in the US is such an important matter, then I don't give a fuck what methods are used to protect from that, whether George Washington would have nodded his approval, or if its written in an ancient document
