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

Yeah when Trump wins, anyone left of MTG will be treated like the Palestinians are treated now. You guys don’t understand this year is the endgame for the US. You guys will too be busy fleeing from Trump’s Schutzstaffel to even think for a second about Gaza. It’s easy: If Trump wins, the world will fall into total chaos and Gaza will be everywhere, nobody will care about them anymore. If Biden wins, we’ll still have at least an opportunity to improve their situation.

There is absolutely no way they believe this, is there? Liberals have become 2008 era conservatives who thought Obama would put them in FEMA camps. The federal government is far too lazy and inept to do anything like that domestically. Also have these liberals not seen the police brutality on college campuses over the past few weeks? The American SS is already here, it's the NYPD.

Not to mention how dismissive this is of Palestinians. They're being carpet bombed right now. Imagine an American saying we're worried of the same thing happening to us. It's ludicrous.

And if liberals truly worry about this, that Trump will create apartheid and begin slaughtering people domestically en masse (more than people already are killed through poverty and police brutality). The response shouldn't be to vote for Biden, it should be a call to dismantle the entire American state apparatus because it shouldn't exist

If they believed it was true, then they should be organizing insurgents and guerillas to fight the feds like resistance fighters in countries occupied by germany in WW2. The fact that they clearly have no actual resistance plan means they either don't believe that Trump is as bad as they claim or they plan on doing nothing as he sets up death camps, much like how they're not doing anything about the camps on the Mexican border right now

Above all else, we must trust the process and be civil to the people we deeply believe will immediately create roving murder squads to kill us all.

If we just protest peacefully and with the correct permits we shall prevail!

plus even if Biden wins they must believe the next republican will do this too, right? forever and ever.

do they just expect democrats to win every single time? no such thing has ever happened in history and if it does then they get a one-party state.

and their precious "democracy" (their conception of it) is destroyed anyways.

You guys don’t understand this year is the endgame for the US.

"You guys don't understand that joe biden is basically tony stark in this infinity war"

Looking forward to being told how 2028 is the endgame and then how 2032 is the endgame
