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

Bold of you to assume the US is my country, or that I'd want Orange Hitler to lead it if it was.

But, see, before anything else, I am a one person, with marginal zero power compared to even the Dems, yet they're the ones who have so far given zero reason to believe that they'd prevent it. Like, come on, we just came out of some spectacular election process! And second, what I'm going for is that she's showing more respect towards the process than he ever did. Moral high ground or whatever, it's just not her race anylonger. There's lots of people who can fight Trump for power, and, if you ask me, it's about time most of them stopped being lazy.

If the process brought you to this, what respect does it deserve?

Judging an entire historical process for only the worst output? You know it's the same process by which good presidents did and do get elected, right?
