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

MODERATORS
That was such a disappointing piece. Last week he was on fire, it was good to have good ole Johnny boy back again making fun of politicians, and then he follows it up with some weak ass
shit.
i thought it was rich that he'd spend all that time shitting on tucker for being a bad interviewer (which he is, but) like stewart isn't himself also weakass interviewer as any viewers saw last week.
colbert's character was better with guests than stewart ever was
Even back in the day my lib ass was criticizing John for being way too nice to Republicans, John McCain especially. I get that a constraint of the job is that you can't be too mean to people or they won't come on your show but if those are the rules then maybe don't invite on anyone who's willingly signed up to murder children from 10,000 feet.
He was always a lib, you just kept going left
He's not even a social democrat. He would probably be considered right of center many places.
It's perhaps a privilege to look back with cringe-colored glasses on the time when I liked this guy, for the exact reason you say.
He was just applying a bit of lube before going whole hog on our collective asses.
