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

Dude was the most benign Republican of the last 100 years. Maybe Ford could be argued, but compared to the 2 Bushes, Regan and Nixon, he was alright. People freaking the fuck out over him made history change for the stupider and arguably worse but yknow, his actions as president pale in comparison to Reagan mics, the Iraq wars, invading Afghanistan, Iran Contra and it's surrounding crimes against humanity, bombing Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia into smithereens etc. He's just a loud and silly dumb guy, really not a big deal.

That's why he's a big deal to civility brained libs. He's bringing the office of the president into disrepute by acting like he acts. Compared to that, not killing millions of people doesn't even matter.

We can condone bombing civilians

But we draw the line at civility
