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

Oh, I'd vote for Biden if he was putting conservatives in camps.

Follow along with me here:

  1. We have a Republican candidate who will (and will have the power to) supposedly genocide a mass of undesirables if he takes office (something we were promised the first time he ran for office too by the way)

  2. We have a gigantic group of undesirables (Republicans) who want to put such a person in office (a person who, as I've already stated, will gulag a ton of people on the usually Democrat side of the aisle)

  3. Democrats would also have that power equally themselves, cause otherwise the other guy couldn't have it

  4. Knowing point 1 and 2, why doesn't the current president do what the other guy would do, but to that guy's voter base? If they (republicans) gain power, they're allegedly going to literally do this themselves; why aren't they being shoved in those very camps? Is the whole point to just play keep away with Republicans eternally? If so, not only is this system a joke, but Democrats are a joke too for treating this as a game.

the only victory the care about is the moral one. and even then, moral only means preserving the rules of the system, even as it collapses down upon them.
