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

"Bernie's supporters have been very, very damaging to him, and it's really frustrating to see and experience. They don't realize how influential they are. It's frustrating to feel like they are hurting him," Ocasio-Cortez said in the midst of the 2020 primary, according to the book. "I feel like Warren is scooping up LGBT, progressives, women, and progressives of color because of how they isolate."

She also worried that the behavior of Sanders's supporters were "forcing an unnecessary choice between class analysis and race analysis" through their "behavior, not so much policy."

Ocasio-Cortez made those comments as she mulled whether to endorse Sanders's 2020 campaign, even though she had worked as an organizer on his 2016 campaign.

Just everything is so odd:

Jerseys hung up on wall via plastic hangers

Could they not afford a cheap poster frame?

Spiderman and Pan movie posters

Not my first choice, but sure

DVD cases hung on the wall

What the actual fuck. Let's see what's here: capeshit, sure; random action slop (Meg, Hobbs & Shaw, Equalizer 2), uhhh alright; PETER RABBIT, wot.

MLM poster on the wall (It Works)

Busted old couches

One guy who's getting a haircut just randomly near the exit

I was gonna say, every barbershop I've been in has had the barber chairs lined up, facing a wall with a mirror on it. Not in the middle of the room, on a rug, surrounded by sofas.

The guy getting his haircut has dreads and the barber is holding just a comb. What is going on.

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 17 points 11 months ago

Maybe beard cut? But that still doesn't explain why he doesn't have any clippers or scissors

[–] diego_maradona@hexbear.net 15 points 11 months ago

and he's sitting in an office chair.

A fake barbershop, put together for a pro-Warren photo-op, to attempt to convince people that POC liked Warren

I love when people do blackface on social media. It's so cool and not at all weird to roleplay as a minority to try and own other white people.

Mayo Pete’s campaign manager (Liz something) got caught literally pretending to be a black man on twitter who kept hyping up Pete.

Warren really was the high water mark for 'Twitter is not real life'

[–] Frogmanfromlake@hexbear.net 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I winced from the secondhand cringe reading this. It was probably him saying that and everybody telling him to shut the fuck up.

They got challenged on it, so the warren campaign seems to have staged a fake barber shop to prove it wasn't made up https://nitter.net/STEFisDOPE/status/1231425884063764480
