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

Bush doing a judicial coup and succeeding is far more disruptive of social norms than Jan 6th was. Bush's invasion of Iraq was more destructive than any of Trump's decisions.
The only hatred deeper than what I have for George W Bush is one that would lead me to throwing my life away to end his. I hate him even more for unlocking this degree of hate. There isn't a word in any human language for my contempt for that loathsome wretch and it's probably good that we as a species cannot conceptualize this level of hate in words. I have Ahab hatred for him and even though ill for sure outlive that despicable cur, with my last breath I will curse his name as he lays dead and that is an absolute promise.
And I. Canadian, imagine how someone from Iraq might feel.
Something I've learned from talking with people from oppressed groups, is that vengeance and hatred in their hearts is often overcome with a desire to salvage the remainder of their life and overcome their past.
Vengeance, malice, and retribution are poisons and echoes of victimizer that deforms and mutilates the oppressed and we must all live with purpose and humanity.
Yeah, do you want to measure how bad a president was in terms of his "decorum" or "violation of norms", or how "respectable" they were? Or number of human deaths caused by their policies?
I mean the point is that even according to the most stupid liberal points, the one they right now whitewash was much worse than the one that is their enemy #1
You want to get a lib to say the most deranged shit possible ask them who they thought was a worse president, Bush or Trump
But was he a CHEETO
And Bush starting two wars that tore the entire region to pieces, along with the added side effect of accelerating the existing nationalistic fervor this shithole has
And Bush bringing the "they're jumping the border and taking our jobs" talking point forward
And Bush signing the Patriot act
And so many other little things and big ones
Fuck Trump to hell and back, but he isn't even the worst president of my life lmao
Liberals have completely forgiven Bush for the 2000 election and in fact seem to like the guy now. That's such a whiplash to me and it's proof that in 20 years liberals will have positive opinions about Trump
