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

The better he does, the more voters hate him.

“Could it possibly be that our chosen candidate is failing to deliver adequately to voters? No, they must be dumb-dumb heads living in opposite land.”

[Biden] Cons: protectionism, but it’s not like we have much of a choice.

It’s okay when Team Blue does it!

I’m honestly at a loss for what people want out of Biden

The six hundred bucks he owes me? A strategy for getting control of the courts that doesn’t involve waiting thirty years for the ghouls currently on it to die? Considering Palestinians to be human beings? Forcing the rail owners to eat the union’s demands instead of the other way around?

China and Russia overextended and on their back foot

projection

Has defeated COVID

Yes, that’s right, no one is catching COVID anymore!

This one is especially unhinged. Like, okay, Russia I could buy. But CHINA?! They're just going from win to win.

They're on the "China real estate collapse" run again.

It's amazing they are focusing on that becuase China defused the Evergrande bankruptcy extremely easily with few knock on effects. Like you see that and how the US completely fucked up the 2008 response despite having more resources, but still think China's the one that's about to collapse.

Also, if it were true, leaving the people of Russia and China in a position to be pillaged by the richest Americans is far from a good thing.

That's fuckin hilarious, I was gonna say almost the exact same words, lmao. Like even if that were true, why should I be happy about that? I do not think it's a good thing to make enemies out of nearly a quarter of the world's population, and US neoliberals are addicted to making enemies.

Because they think they're untouchable. They have nukes on everyone's doorstep and a populace stupid enough to cheer on using them. Americans need to be humbled in a big way, it's the only way to force the savages to stop lusting after blood.

The better he does, the more voters hate him.

Biden could sit as his desk and fondle his balls for 4 years continuously, and he would easily be better and more likeable than he is now.

I’m honestly at a loss for what people want out of Biden

Must be sooo comfortable living in their heads...and their material posture.

[–] TheModerateTankie@hexbear.net 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

They literally just declared victory stopped tracking covid.

Mission Accomplished

Has defeated COVID

Joe Biden beat the crap out of John COVID and now no one ever catches COVID any more.
