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

has the same energy as a fan complaining about the new season of their favorite show

[–] carpoftruth@hexbear.net 38 points 2 years ago

Yes exactly, or rather that their favourite show isn't getting renewed

From Wiki:

She voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. presidential election.[27] In September 2022, Shriver released an open letter in which she endorsed Republican Ron DeSantis for the 2024 U.S. Presidential election. In the letter, she criticized both Biden and Donald Trump as poor leaders, and praised DeSantis for his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, banning critical race theory in schools, opposing transgender women from competing in women's sports, and passing the Florida Parental Rights in Education Act; while noting that she disagrees with him on abortion.[27]

Shriver has argued against migration into the UK, in 2021 she wrote an article which stated "For westerners to passively accept and even abet incursions by foreigners so massive that the native-born are effectively surrendering their territory without a shot fired is biologically perverse."

Phil Ochs had these fuckers nailed down

I don’t even have to guess where she stands on Palestine…

Suddenly and inexplicably in favor of foreign incursions, no doubt

This scumbag is just a neo-nazi

(disclaimer: I'm no policy wonk) dear diary, Ukraine was my slop

[–] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 34 points 2 years ago

Stuff like this is why, when liberals in my life get excited or upset about some "issue", I just tell them to wait a few weeks / months and they'll forget about it and move on to the next thing. Most liberals were bored with Ukraine within the first 6 months.

Treat-brained fucking rodents (rodents are more determined and pro-social).

On one hand it's kind of satisfying that these ghouls are standing around, thumbs up their asses, whining that the same goldfish brain they encourage people to have is actively working against them

On the other hand, it's also funny

allied with an underdog

...that was in it's eighth year of savaging an even smaller underdog

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 25 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Isn’t Russia a “gas station masquerading as a nation” with “an economy the size of Italy”? That’s what I was told by the libs, that Russia was pathetic and weak and would crumble to western sanctions.

So doesn’t that, by their logic, make Russia the underdog against the West?

the enemy is both weak and strong etc etc

We need to ban fiction for a few years till we figure out what the hell is up with Libs.

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Round up every liberal and NAFO dog and send them to fight in Ukraine.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

The absolute cheek of presenting Ukraine as being the only ones who came to the table to negotiate.
