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

John Fetterman ran on being pro-israel and denies being a socialist.

I can't wait for 6 months from now when progressives / democratic socialists talk about how important it is to vote in the next election

You know what? I took a lot of shit from lib friends for not voting for Biden. But not long after Biden got into office, whenever I talk about not voting for democrats those same friends seem a lot more empathetic. Biden really does objectively suck, even the liberals kinda know it. I think we’ll be a little surprised this next time around. The liberals will all still vote of course, but I think there’s gonna be less push back from them when we sit out again. Just a hunch.

I'm not sure, libs will fall for the same shit 100% of the time. 'Bro I know Biden literally collaborated and funded a genocide but we can't let Cheeto win!'

However, I do notice more and more people realizing it's all a sham.

Anytime "bideneconomics" is mention in r/politics there is a ton of comments going "pfft suuure" or there is very little comments in the thread. Which kinda shows that even the ultra libs have given up defending him on that front. So I dont think you're wrong there.
