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 human cry-laughing emoji. Hard to think of anyone in history who has fallen so far in reputation. At least Hitler had enough dignity to kill himself.

every night he puts the Deus Ex prop pistol on the nightstand in his mouth and pulls the trigger but nothing happens

he probably has that Destiny 1 collectible rocket launcher

it's funnier to imagine him trying to jam the Gjallarhorn into his giant maw

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 42 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

If he was going to make this a thing, you'd think he'd start tucking in his shirt or whatever

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 35 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

That fucking belt buckle too. agony-yehaw

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 4 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Yeah, incorporating bits of Western wear into your clothing can be cool, but starting with a big ass belt buckle is cringe. Especially if all this starts from moving to Texas for lolbertarian reasons.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 5 points 4 weeks ago

And wearing cowboy hats fucking backwards.

That's a keeper.

Critical support. If he does it enough, he's gonna fall off a stage.

Each jump is a new opportunity to land wrong and broke an ankle.

Cringe incarnate

I am once again asking if we have the counterpart of this emoji kombucha-disgust because I find myself wanting to use it quite often

I have this essay I want to write about how while the ultra-rich command economies, the local small business owner is what defines "cultural norms" and what nationalism means.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 16 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

Thesis: bazinga billionaires.

Antithesis: small business tyrants.

Synthesis: bazinga small business tyrants that put their small business tyranny logo on the side of their ZYBERTRUKKKs.

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 12 points 4 weeks ago

There is also the small business tyrant who is like "the loony left and their cybertrucks, nothing compared to diesel trock laughcry emoji". Multitudes >.>

he even makes the soyface when he makes the x. it's perfect. this is so freaking epic.

[–] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 5 points 4 weeks ago

Now that you point that out, I'm starting to realize that a lot of these new-chud-types, like the Peter Thiel/Musk/Vance crowd, they use "bug soyman" not as an insult of ridicule, but an insult of envy. They want that whole aesthetic to belong to the right.

I want Trump to lose to watch melon eat shit.

[–] Flyberius@hexbear.net 11 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

You know he'll just spin it into some persecution bullshit. I'd rather see trump win and then Elon eat shit by Trump refusing him any positions.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 4 points 4 weeks ago

I'd rather see trump win and then Elon eat shit by Trump refusing him any positions.

I think trump-anguish has successfully been persuaded to give the bazinga vizier his vizier position entirely by being the last sycophant in the room enough times and kissing his ass enough.

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 4 points 4 weeks ago

That's the silver lining for me in the Red MAGA vs Blue MAGA thing.

Great emoji material

A neurodivergent migrant has a new hyperfixation and you're making fun of him? Do better, hexbear

That is the least flattering photograph I have personally seen of a human being
Why would he post this
