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

As a tangent, is there anything more pathetic in American politics than having a politician’s legacy described as Camelot? America fought a war precisely to not be burdened with that bullshit and now turds like this are like “oooh I wish democracy was a cheap facade for the same family to rule over us for generations.”

They mainly want him because they think he has any resemblance or JFK aside from the name. Americans are brainwashed by great men who got got by the deep state lol. Imagine if China just elected one of Mao’s great great great great grand half nephew into office 50 years later because they got the same family lol

I'm not being ironic here when I say the US, at large, yearns for having or having had a monarchy. They already got all the weird vestigial monarchy things going on in politics, too
