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.

There's all kinds of rules about the US flag and american's know none of them and just make up new ones all th etime.
It's especially funny that flagfuckers are probably the most likely to break the special flag respecting rules.
I learned how to handle a flag in the Boy Scouts. I was like 7. Like more than half my class did. I guess learning it so young would explain why Americans tend to misremember shit.
My favorite is still them wanting to ban burning the flag when that's the method to retire them
I like asking people why burying soldiers with flags doesnβt count as the flags touching the ground. Is it technically only the top of the ground that they care about? Does it matter? Probably not.
you didn't fold it with enough tRIANGLESSSSSSSSSSS
Is it normal for students to want to hang their provost and chop the heads off of the Board of Trustees?
This is like the most normal relationship between university students and the bureaucrats that could exist at a university. This is the default state in which universities have operated since their conception; Kids who came to learn cool shit and bureaucrats whose job is to make sure that doesn't happen and they get assembled in to good little doctors and lawyers and theologians. Half the fucking political revolutions in history started in a dorm room.
Some of the first chants I heard on demonstrations were calling for the burning and drowning of specific politicians. It's extremely normal.
Pro tip: put gold fringe around the Palestinian flag so that only maritime law applies.
As you know, there was always an American flag πΊπΈ flying in that location till the protestors commandeered the companion flagpole and replaced the GW flag with a giant Palestinian flag which was illegal for several reasons inc. "When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of approximately equal size."
DOUBLE GULAG
The flags should be of approximately equal size.
Okay then, so what's up with the 50 foot one on the building?
also that is only applicable to two nations at a time of peace, the U.S. doesn't recognize Palestine as a nation and there sure as hell is no peace in Palestine right now
@mkultrawide@hexbear.net look at this
Lol yeah I saw it yesterday. I saw someone saying they were going make t-shirts of it to sell and a part of me wants to say "Excuse me, where are my royalties?!" lmao
