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

What does he even mean by "get around" the Iron Sieve? You just launch a bunch of rockets and it only blocks some of them?

Look, it’s simple Occam’s razor, there’s way fewer assumptions in an international game of telephone that goes back to a man notorious for lies and exaggerations than Israel overstating how effective the Iron Dome is.

"Our enemies couldn't possibly defeat us, we must have been betrayed internally!"

Gee where have I heard that one before?

One could say it is a stab in the back.

The intel "provided to the Russians by Donald Trump in 2017" was about the Islamic State in Syria, right? The whole kerfluffle was that Russia supported Assad and we didn't.

What's with the date references lately? How am I supposed to remember all these dates?

9/11 I can understand but why tf would I memorize Jan 6 and Oct 7 etc

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Because January 6 was incredibly funny

im sad it doesnt have the same cultural impact 9/11 did, 1/6 is so funny.

maybe if they did get someone itd be more impactful
