When I was in grad school, my advisor used to respond to any question that began "Imagine a possible world where.." by just stopping the questioner and saying *no, I'd rather not."

They're reducing the election of a free market extremist in Argentina into "haha libertarians are pedos" jokes.

Indeed, the people most likely to be welcoming to them are market radicals and if your worldview revolves around "everything must be allowed", then legalizing that is likely to happen.

I wonder if he chuckled when he realized he could just shove Ron Paul in front of anything he wanted if he kept the last letter the same. Amazing wordplay.

The most euphoric STEMbros I've ever known insisted they were superior artists, poets, and writers to anyone in the humanities because the humanities taught nothing of importance that STEM couldn't produce with STEMlogic alone smuglord

I've met people that actually fucking said that: that the Secular Calvinist Protestant Work Ethic, Animoo Edition shit pushed in some of those games was actually a basis for how to date and how to live life. You know, hustlegrinding their way to a harem that mysteriously doesn't seem to happen without hiring sex workers or going to magical rich people islands. epsteingelion

Get a capital-R "Rationalist" talking long enough and they will eventually talk about any conceivable scenario where they think it might be okay to harm children. libertarian-alert

Liberals justifying their ideology: Imagine this hypothetical situation that has not happened and, even if it does happen, will always remain a weird anecdotal outlying edgecase. In this situation, would you agree with me?

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
