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

You're gonna have to explain to millions of women across the country why there is a national abortion ban and they no longer have a constitional, fundamental right to an abortion.

The democrats had the house, senate, and presidency when Dobbs went into effect. They didn't even try to enact a legislative solution. Fuck off.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 11 months ago

I don’t think it’s my job to explain why other people didn’t do anything about it for the 50 years that they could have. I can, but I’m tired

[–] [email protected] 32 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Don't worry. Next time they'll promise even harder than the last time.

Sorry they just couldn't because apparently the House Parlimentarian or something said they couldn't. Maybe in a real democracy we vote for that guy he sounds more important than all the other folks we have the option to vote for

Not recognising American places that share their name with old world areas is praxis.

he really said all the progress we've made in the last three years on abortion will be gone if you don't vote biden lol

[–] [email protected] 76 points 11 months ago

You heard him. If Biden isn't reelected, the Roe vs. Wade repeal will be undone.

[–] [email protected] 86 points 11 months ago (4 children)

you’re gonna have to explain why the DOJ and FBI are gone

That would be great. And why is Biden put in contrast to “the guy who s-xually abuses women”?

[–] [email protected] 57 points 11 months ago

Because they don't believe women if they're accusing their guys

[–] [email protected] 44 points 11 months ago

Republicans will just rename the FBI to something else to pretend they've abolished it

For me it depends, is this like a babyfaced 22 year old, or is this a lil 16 year old actual baby? If closer to the latter then let em be

[–] [email protected] 70 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Good impulse, but this fucker is running a DNC-aligned podcast trying to be another Pod Save America clone, rather than someone who isn't seeking a media career just making a personal expression like maybe-later-kiddo . We can say let em be when he stops polluting the airwaves with his shitty little podcast.

Also it inexplicably has "unplugged" in the title like he doesn't understand that MTV Unplugged was named for the use of acoustic instruments. Like, you're a fucking talking head, what are you unplugged from? tHe MaTrIx?

It's not some random guy. He's a fully committed liberal. Chris Mowrey is 21 years old and created a Gen-Z Democrat podcast called Chris & Harry Unplugged.

Why do yanks like to film videos in their cars so much? It's so fucking weird.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

No public spaces. Being in your car is basically the only place you can be other than your house.

[–] [email protected] 53 points 11 months ago

I think it's a very contrived attempt at appearing spontaneous

"You know, I wasn't planning on making this video, in fact, I was just going about my daily business. But I cannot remain silent, and it's so urgent that I post I've got to do it right here and now"

[–] [email protected] 42 points 11 months ago

It's easiest to film where you live this-is-fine

In an effort to win Gen Z voters, the Biden campaign is weaponizing pretty twinks and adorable kittens: perhaps the most innate desires of college students in 2023

okay, i'd like to see this smug asshole explain to palestinian people why they don't deserve to live so he can have a president that makes hollow statements about social justice issues and doesn't actually do anything about them. he lists off all these issues as if they're somehow on the line in this election, like we have a choice in protecting abortion, lgbtq rights, climate progress, etc in this election. dobbs happened under biden, 1/4th of the country passed anti-trans laws under biden, numerous mass shootings happened under biden, the climate is still worsening under biden, the border wall and racist detainment of immigrant children is still happening under biden. i'd love for him to make another stupid little video in his car explaining why genocide is completely permissible to him so he can have genocidal maniac from blue side instead of genocidal maniac from red side.

It's not that much of an explanation

He doesn't represent me or my views, so I will not vote for him
