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

I hate that even a non-american dumbfuck like myself was able to predict all of this. Liberals are absolutely pathetic

They were too high on their own propaganda.

Even as a yank, I feel embarrassed that I never listened to my gut instinct in the first place. If I did, I could have told you that Trump would have won months ago but I was still uncertain calling it going into election night

Hey, I'm a dumbass who switched my opinion within the final week and made a post on my prediction. Should have gone with my gut too.

He didn't have the same energy as in 2016, especially after the assassination attempt, so it's only fair to have been uncertain about his chances.
