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

"You can't spell CRAP without RAP."

Who said this, Ben Shapiro or me at 12 years old?

Let's look at the stats, I've got the facts

My money like Lizzo, my pockets are fat

Homie, I'm epic, don't be a WAP

Dawg, it's a yarmulke, homie, no cap

Look at the graphs, look at my charts

You're blowing money on strippers and cars

You're going to prison, I'm on television

Dawg, no one knows who you are

Keep hating on me on the internet

My comment section all woke Karens

I make racks off compound interest

Y'all live with your parents

Nicki take some notes

I just did this for fun

All my people download this

Let's get a Billboard number one

it sounds even worse than it reads.

We're making it out the suburbs with this one 🔥

Bold of Ben to bring up his humiliating BBC interview and his WAP ramblings. The former because he had a hissy fit after somehow losing an interview and storming off and the latter because he revealed to the world he is incapable of satisfying his wife and his tenuous grasp on metaphor and wordplay. Not surprised he's attacking female rappers and Lizzo.

He had god knows how much time to shoehorn in a wap line to capitalize on that shit and this absolute nonsensical line is the best he and his ghostwriter(s) could come up with?

The cringe is real.

It’s impossible to make Shapiro look intimidating

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

The thumbnail looks like a cover of Narcos lol. But then you open it and just see a confused man

This isn't real, this isn't real, this isn't real

It's so real and would you believe me if I said the first line was literally

Ben has a yellow booger.

[–] regul@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

In unrelated news I watched the Vanilla Ice movie Cool as Ice (1991) recently.

[–] Weedian@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

why is there a yellow booger coming out of his nose

[–] whatup@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

AI generated promotional art always makes the product it’s marketing look fake. Or maybe the poster isn’t AI and just looks like shit.

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I would have some levels of respect for Shapiro if he hopped on some drill beat or Playboi Carti beat. But for whatever reason conservative rappers are deathly afraid of any good beats and instead opt for generic boom bap Eminem type shit

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

ben knows he's making propaganda and not music

[–] Xx_Aru_xX@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

I think he's intentionally trying to make it shitpostable
