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

Link for the morbidly curious. Burgerites really haven't learned anything since 2000.

EDIT: Egg on my dang face for not noticing the bluetooth bar blocking out half of the evil things this dupe is saying.

Let's just kill them, anyone that's not a bad guy would realize that the US wants to murder them so they should just hide

matt-jokerfied WHAT HAS THE PAST 50 YEARS OF US FOREIGN POLICY TAUGHT YOU??

Sure, we have continuously tried to pummel smaller nations into submission and it hasn't worked out so far, but what if it worked this time? This time there won't be the bodies of American pilots paraded through the streets, or plane loads of coffins to unload. Not to mention countless innocents killed.

except we can defeat China
we couldn't defeat their proxies 70 years ago but this time is different just trust me bro

Mogadishu in 1993, the Black Hawk Down Incident. May have just been soldiers not pilots, I can't recall.

word for word a post you'd seen about iraq in 2003

You can take the liberal out of Reddit, but you can't take the Reddit out of the liberal.

No he's right. It'd be easy for the better part of 34 million people to just pick up and get out of harns way. I'm sure that wouldn't be a massive humanitarian crisis at all. Why didn't anyone else think of this totally humane and not batshit bloodthirsty idea of how to conduct warfare before?

Hate the leaders not the people doesn't apply if the people are brown btw obama-socialism

The Hexbear curtain is what makes the internet usable. Rumour is that federation is going to be reduced so hurray for that.

I also hate taking screenshots on Android, the default bindings are so clunky.

[–] Doubledee@hexbear.net 14 points 9 months ago

Hopefully we have fortified the lines for the renewed posting wars then.

It's nice that they're thinking of the civilians, what a swell guy

If you were ever within 500 feet of a munition dropped in the middle of a place of commerce, felt the force of the explosion in your chest, and walked up to see the destruction of a building even without any casualties, you'd shut the fuck up about it. Even if you believe the Houthis are the bad guys, the idea that the way you engage before ever even trying to talk them down from the hostage situation that you drop tons of munitions is psychopathic. This shit is having learned nothing from 9/11 because it neither feels good nor is it effective for anything productive or harmonious. Frankly it's ineffective at being genocidal. This post is straight up "Father, forgive them; for they know not what they do." If this is the leadership's position then Americans deserves pity. If this is the median American's position then they deserve Minecraft machinima parodies made by Tubbo, Tommyinnit, and Badboyhalo for the sake of creating income via sponsorship on YouTube

Libs are just bloodthirsty and evil

Btw since you're on Samsung, enable palm swipe to screenshot if it's not yet enabled. Very useful

[–] Doubledee@hexbear.net 4 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Lol oh shit, I'm only just now seeing what you guys are all commenting on about my danged screenshot. Woops.

[–] Tachanka@hexbear.net 8 points 9 months ago

Me feeling smug for using a desktop: chomsky-yes-honey (you can't see my smug expression because I'm old)

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 7 points 9 months ago

It's fine. Once I learned about palm swipe it's a game changer
