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

John Bolton is a fictional character made by the CIA for Amazon Prime Video.

Or at least that’s what I’m going to tell my kids anyway…

He's Ramsay Bolton evil twin.

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 16 points 6 months ago

He's the weird uncle of the Bolton family who creeps everyone out

[–] goferking0@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 6 months ago

Probably would make ramsay look sane

I think he's more like a fake policy creation like if you want to write a take so bad that it could hurt your career you just write it as "John Bolton", like how directors used the name "Alan Smithee" for movies they didn't want their names attached to.

"The West will soon pay." sicko-yes

"The West will soon pay for Biden's betrayal" by John Bolton. sicko-no

He's actually right... for the wrong reasons.

broken clock moment

No just society would let this man walk free

[–] Pastaguini@hexbear.net 22 points 6 months ago

Yeah but imagine if it did though

[–] Gorb@hexbear.net 18 points 6 months ago

Don't worry the CIA will cook something up

[–] Tankiedesantski@hexbear.net 18 points 6 months ago

I didn't have "Joe Biden Dolchstoßlegende" on my 2024 bingo card.

Hours before Biden gets coup'd ^stroke^

Shame these ghouls will die of old age before they see the inside of a courthouse.

Israeli delegates to the UN once joked that "There are five of our delegates at the UN, we four and John Bolton". Besides being the "war with Iran" guy he's also the most staunch Zionist amongst the lanyards.

[–] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 11 points 6 months ago

Yes it will ^please^

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 9 points 6 months ago

I hate to admit it, but John Bolton might be a better anti-imperialist than you or I. Guy is desperate to see the US military get it's teeth kicked out in Iran.
