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

MODERATORS
I think there will be a huge meltdown amongst the white body politic when the DA (white liberal opposition party) loses their official opposition status in the next elections this year. There is a huge chance of this happening.
They're only strong in the Western Cape, no? The EFF going to surpass them, as it did with the IFP?
Yes that is very likely. But there's also Jacob Zuma's MK party and bunch of other parties.
Why do you think that? It's not evident from the polls
Brenthurst Foundation is basically DA's internal polling and not to be trusted. The foundation funds the DA. The latest IPSOS poll (not present on the Wikipedia page) had the DA and EFF extremely close, but that was before Zuma's MK party got popular.
Please do not use Wikipedia as a source.
I know wikipedia has it's problems, but where else can you follow South-African polls? I just think it always provides a nice overview of polls in any country. Very happy to hear other suggestions!
