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

ayup. Buttigieg was too much of a stretch and burned by the scandal in iowa so they gave it to Joe, simple as. To the real power brokers and ghouls even "roll over and do whatever the DNC wants" warren was too radical.
Buttigieg hadn't proven himself yet.. even as a former McKinley drone, it wasn't enough to prove he could be entrusted to be the puppet.
that's what I mean by too much of a stretch
But it could've also just been "lets see if we can give iowa to bootyjudge" to make it look like a crowded field but also nerf bernard's momentum
