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

they are steering too hard into the "weird" skid, they are gonna completely ruin the one "good" attack they've found against trump

[–] GVAGUY3@hexbear.net 37 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They haven't got anything policy wise, so this is the best they got (admittedly worked way to well).

[–] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 29 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It's gonna be funny when they fully wear it out and they're back to square one with yet another unlikable candidate sicko-pig

Idk, Republicans are incapable of not talking about people's genitals

Ugh, this was bound to happen, they are like a kid who found something they could do to make their parents laugh and now keep repeating it hoping for the same reaction.

I've already seen the (inevitable) use of weird being thrown at a leftist for- get this- asking why their student loans weren't forgiven

Now with the liberal approval of kamala talking down to those protestors I think we'll also see a resurgence of Hillary era listen-to-your-betters smug condescension. It's gonna suck

It's gonna suck but if we're lucky it just might lose them the election again

[–] Tiocfaidhcaisarla@hexbear.net 11 points 10 months ago

It's certainly a contest of who fumbles it more.

Either outcome is funny I guess? So that's something. It's just election season is ugh and I'll be in a swing state for it

Did the Copmala campaign use a dril tweet?

[–] PorkrollPosadist@hexbear.net 51 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They're going to regret this. They have made a powerful enemy.

[–] Storm@hexbear.net 43 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Waiting for for the tactical tweet to drop.

CW: Mention of systematic torture

[–] Storm@hexbear.net 24 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I'm glad dril knows to strike when the iron is hot.

But I wish he'd say it not as a joke.

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 23 points 10 months ago

gun-hubris but it's an electric dril

[–] FishLake@lemmygrad.ml 14 points 10 months ago

I will definitely Pokémon Go to the polls now.

I’m cringing out of my skin. So glad he caught wind of it and dropped one on them.
