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

"Every Floyd cop....."

Gonna be real here, if the guy defending you only knows you as "murdered-person cop", i have a feeling your conviction was solid.

critical-support for a cop kneeling on trump-anguish neck until he dies

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

Trump dies AND they hate cops

100% for this

[–] axont@hexbear.net 53 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

My coworker just told me the courts changed specifically for Trump and now juries no longer have to be unanimous. lmao ok sure yeah, now you hate courts and cops

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Every single count was unanimous.

Like not to defend to us court system but don't be such a dumbass that I look like a moron if I don't correct you.

[–] axont@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I realize they were unanimous. Some kind of odd rumor going around maga/qanon social media that the juries only needed to declare 12 guilty verdicts in total across the 34 convictions, rather than unanimous verdicts on all 34.

My mom said “theyre trying to set a precedent to do this to us!” Idk what new enforcement of laws that will emerge from this that will effect/target broke white trash idiots in east tx like my family and everyone they know but I’m assured it’s very serious

[–] axont@hexbear.net 40 points 1 year ago

From this moment onward it's no longer legal to commit low level white collar crime in the state of New York by falsifying documents about how $30,000 was spent. This is a deeply grave matter that will result in outlawing white christianity

"I'm gonna give you $100 to fuck off"

"PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK!"

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

More like

"I'm going to give you $100 dollars to fuck off"

"OK that's fine"

"And I'm going to have my lawyer pay you so there's no direct line to me"

"Yea makes sense"

"Then I'll pay him back later"

"OK yea sounds good"

"And I'm going to do it with money I collected as explicit political donations for campaign expenses"

"Believe it or not there's actually nothing wrong with that"

"But I'm going to lie what those campaigns funds were actually used for"

"OK that actually is technically illegal now"

[–] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I ask as someone who has spared themselves any coverage besides brief mentions on tiktok: he has 34 felony convictions now, right? It sounded like much more than being mistaken about campaign funds.

Deeply unserious country

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

IIRC it's 34 times he did the same thing.

second-plane "Sir, a 34th woman has come out with a credible claim of sexual harassment"

It's funny, but not funny haha

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 18 points 1 year ago

There are few things that reveal your privellage more than saying "this might set the precedent of people getting charged with crimes even if they're innocent"

Setting aside the fact that he could not possibly be more very obviously guilty.

His entire business strategy has been "fuck people over and take advantage of the fact rich white people don't get charged with crimes" for 40 years, he's gonna end up getting "house arrest" that extends to any of hit properties or rallies or campaign events and these dumb shits still complain about not being treated well enough.

Isn't 0.5 % (1 in 200) of america in prison already?

[–] CarbonScored@hexbear.net 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Pre-COVID it was about 1%, now it's about .6%. Good improvement, but still one of the world's highest, and notably 4-5 times more than China.

Lmao I got one similar to that but mentioned Biden. I love being dumb when replying, which is fun when they reply, although pretty rare. Hopefully I get a response after pretending to have no idea who Biden or Trump are bait

My favorite one was when I pretended to have no idea what Woke was and eventually I just got a "You have successfully been unsubscribed" midconversation, like the person just gave up.

The best use of AI to date, this is amazing.

Stereotype of Black hair style.because George Floyd is Black. Trump is George Floyd. If you don't vote for Trump then you ain't Black.

They want people to riot over this to get pumped to vote for nothing but fumes. No policy...just revenge fumes and implanted victimhood for Hier Drumpfaustein.

My name is Donald J. Trump. I'm 77 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Palm beach, where all the villas are, and I am married. I work as the rightful ruler of the United States, and I get home every day by 8 PM at the latest. I don't smoke, but I occasionally drink diet Coke. I'm in bed by 11 PM, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm milk and doing about twenty minutes of stretches before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there's noone healthier than me at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very quiet life. I take care not to trouble myself with any haters, like winning and losing, that would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I deal with society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to fight I wouldn't lose to anyone.

as much as I wish donald trump or any other billionaire died in a chokehold by a cop in the USA, that did not happen today.

if the pig who murdered george floyd promised to do that, I would support his release from prison on the condition that he must go find a billionaire and murder them in a chokehold on the ground while they cry out for their mama and plead "I can't breathe."
