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

I love the fact that Putin appointed Sergey Kiriyenko, Yeltsin’s Prime Minister in the 1990s who had good relations with the Clintons, to the First Deputy Chief of Staff of the Russian President in October 2016, literally one month before the US election because nobody thought Trump would win and he wanted to improve ties with the new Hillary Clinton’s administration.

Yet somehow the libs still think it was Putin that caused Hillary to lose lol.

Trump didn't even think he would win. He had to cancel his TV channel plans once he won.

Source? (I want to be able to credibly share this info with libs)

New York Times: Cash Flowed to Clinton Foundation Amid Russian Uranium Deal

Kiriyenko was head of Rosatom from 2005-2016, during which the Clintons were involved in a scandal with the Russian uranium deal. Promoted to Putin’s First Deputy Chief of Staff just one month before Hillary’s supposed victorious election, coincidence? I think not.

Also NY TImes: Donations to the Clinton Foundation, and a Russian Uranium Takeover showing full timeline of how Uranium One came under full control of Rosatom, and how Hillary Clinton’s Secretary of State office was involved in the deal. All of this took place under Kiriyenko’s tenure as the head of Rosatom
