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

So....how's those Trans rights and DEI doing under Biden?
Nearly 100,000 transgender youth live in states that banned access to health care, sports, or school bathrooms in 2023
Over 20 states banned medical care for transgender people.
Over 400 anti LGBTQ laws proposed 2023
Over 300 in 2024 just in January
Hate Crimes Against Queer and Trans Students Quadrupled in States With Anti-LGBTQ+ Laws
Healthcare reform? What healthcare reform? A single drug? OMG M4A AT LONG LAST!
Majority of debtors to US hospitals now people with health insurance how's that
Obamacare doing? Still want to keep kicking the can pn actual reforms?
Meanwhile in super commie land
Chinese scientists cure diabetes using stem cells in world first
Infrastructure?
we just had another damn fail. Every month are stories of major structural and systemic failures. It's been a joke. Meanwhile 
is actually doing great works, high speed rail, and modern architectural achievements. We aren't building shit anymore.
Biden's Green Mold Deal isn't even enough to keep up with the damage done by climate enhanced storms. It is 1/10th of a limited period of even begining to address what we need to do.
Loan forgiveness? Oh you mean all the people who you say qualify but when they apply you deny them or say "oh..it's only a small part. We didn't mean everything if you qualify....oh and then you had to have had the money paying on that debt...so if you couldn't pay or if your debt is recent, then
welcome to pragmatism honey"
Denied Student Loan Forgiveness? Biden Administration Unveils Appeal Process
WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF?
And even their shitty save loan forgiveness is getting blocked by courts. He's really doing a lot there
Oh, you expect Biden to do anything about the red states banning trans existence? Those are STATE ISSUES!
Also, yes, Biden does indeed have the ability to completely bypass Congress on matters of sending colossal amounts of weaponry to states actively wiping out millions of people. That's just how things landed! The system just happens to be this way! Total inability to do good things and not even vague oversight when doing bad things! If you think this is bad, then vote! ...nobody is running against changing those systematic issues except third parties, and the two parties have no reason to change this and many, MANY reasons to keep the current system intact, and we have no real way to exert power over them due to our refusal to even withdraw our votes let alone take major co-ordinated national action, but...
Reminder that Biden has been sending weapon packages to Israel in shipments just under the mandatory congressional review limit, something better known as the crime of structuring for us plebs
Excellent post, thank you!
