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 [email protected]

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

I don't mean to be the contrairentarian, but it's even funnier (funny in the same way it's used in the beginning of the song Mad World) because the Parliamentarian did something else to undermine his argument. They were the scapegoat for making the economic bill in COVID (another hehexd moment) shittier. Abortion slipping through during Biden's watch just happened anyway. Trump probably would have passed the same neutered efforts to sure up necessary infrastructure against increasing climate related effects. Either way the US is going hard AF trying to dominate energy.

The economics are devestatingly bad, the domestic policy is barbaric, and the foreign policy is so bad WW3 probably doesn't happen because the US crumbles before something mobilizes, but it doesn't stop the US from putting its whole soul into reenacting all the shit that made people want to stop Hitler.
