The very first thing I learned about Kamala was that she's a prosecutor, and I immediately told my wife I'm not voting for a ticket with a prosecutor on it. I guess I'm a little different than these nerds.

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

Prosecutors are always wholesome chungus 100 and only go after bad guys, right? 
As a convicted drug felon whose local DA went on to become a corrupt governor, I reel at the "felon" pejorative that libs now seem to relish in. You can have a discussion with them about the PIC, the doubling of the prison population over a 2 decade period, and all sort of other stuff and they will nod along and even agree and then turn around and still assume all felons are bad and we need to support our cops. It's the same shit with "terrorist" for those who lived through the Bush era and saw the term cynically deployed as cover for wars which saw a million people murdered and an entire region sent into disarray reflexively respond credulously whenever the term is used to justify a new genocidal campaign.
*Ha! I used the word "corrupt", another loaded term that is often weaponized in the same manner. Really said governor was just doing standard governor stuff that most all politicians do in bourgeois democracy.
the so-called war on drugs is a conscription program to collect prison labor that are conveniently stripped of human rights and also made into social pariahs to maintain that status quo.
Facts. I get so much pushback from libs about this though. I just hit em with
The purpose of a system is what it does
Someone dug up an old tweet from around the 2020 primaries where she was bragging about prosecuting sex criminals like Donald Trump.
No way she can use that now considering it could be directed at Democrats too, including one former and one current president.
If you say stuff like "did a Democracy" you probably aren't mature enough to vote.
two of Yakub's most egregious crimes
Do people smugly post every time a couple votes for Trump? It’s so getting so old
tbh yeah trump people do this too. if you look at trump spaces instead of lib spaces its the same shit except instead of “did a democracy” trump morons probably say some shit like “did a MAGA”
3 years ago: wow. Crime is a social construct, and maybe it's not OK to make fun of someone for having the entire machine come down on them Now: I'd rather choose a hammer than a nail
i also did early voting and i did not cast a ballot for a pro-genocide candidate.
Why do millennials use that type of language? Adulting, did a thing, well that happened, etc.
It's grinding my gears into quarks

"So... that just happened!" 
Just wait until the 40 year old zoomers are still using the same phrases. That will also be cringe.
Future rest home resident telling the CNA taking vitals that they got that Ohio rizz 
"Grown-ass adult (usually man)" also pisses me off, especially when used as a peacocking attempt against supposedly not "grown-ass" adults. It instantly sounds tryhard to me.
Trickle down linguistics. That phrase was a staple of AAVE and white people stole it and made it cringe. A tale as old as time
choosing to blame joss whedon for this one
im a millennial and i hate it too. i think some mfs just watched too much parks and rec and the office and now this is just how they are

This festive season, I'm voting for the police #Law&Order
Executive Producer Dick Wolf
20 minutes?!?
Early voting, majority white Republican county in Georgia (most gerrymandered, most corrupt election committee in the country). Try that in inner city Atlanta though 
Crazy, early voting in My country takes like 5 minutes.
Gotta calculate the commute in.
gooning
yeah wtf??? It takes me like a couple of minutes
he missed an opportunity to say "the wife" to make this the most reddit post possible
Adding in a "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" would have been admissible too, or "_____ much?"
i also choose this guy's wife
So brave!
How can you spend 20 minutes on early voting? Do you have to wait for them to layout and print your ballot first?
