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

What the entire fuck, Wynn? She wasn't always like this, was she? What the fuck is "legacy?"

I know it shouldn't matter, but damn this contrapoints stuff is so jokerfying for me. Comparing Biden to a slave owner in a positive light is beyond pathetic, and really goes to show where getting in bed with liberalism gets you.

Liberals always find ways to disappoint you even more than you thought capable. She's lost entirely the fucking plot.

Same. What the fuck happened to funny, weird, vulgar contra with her production values and a - e - s - t - h -e - t - i - c shtick? Now she's just another apologist for mass murdering people? What the fuck what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck?

I want to compare all these people to famous Nazis but they're not the Nazis. They're Democrats, mass killers and torturers and oppressors fully in their own right, in modernity, they don't need the ghosts of dead regimes, they're doing it themselves live in real time.

"I John Brown am now quite certain that the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away, but with blood."

Aesthetics > Substance. Theatre kids keep losing. Guess when you fundamentally don’t believe in a better future being possible you start down this road of navel gazing bs.

Surprised she didn’t go for Cincinnatus instead of Washington though.

She made a 4 hour video going "So you're saying I'm a bad person just because I like stuff??" over and over again.

Ages ago, Natalie Wynn was very good at de-radicalizing young men from the far right, and making weird artsy videos about a layman's foray into Marxism.

And then she got absorbed into the ruling class that she was basically already adjacent to. She's rich, and famous, and getting paid to answer questions in the Hillary + Chelsea reality show, questions like "what should we do about AIDS?" and "How much cancelling is the right amount of cancelling?"

Amazing that they can just say thing like "Every president in history has a legacy inertwined with the evils of this country" as a justification for both the country and its presidents and keep supporting this system.

Legacy is when liberals lecture everyone by saying, "it's not enough to support someone for a time, you have to devote your entire life to them. You have to make excuses for the shitty policies they've been responsible for throughout their entire life, and mentally rewrite your own memories in their honor. And when they die, you must be buried with them like they're some kind of brain-leaking mayonnaise-ass Beltway Pharaoh." white-pharaoh

She just got reminded that she's supposed to be "left wing" and instantly hurt herself in her confusion lmao looks like simply evocating Palestine has become a massive cognitohazard to libs

[–] Red_sun_in_the_sky@hexbear.net 13 points 3 months ago

She has been like this. She is a brazen liberal.

I mean... Ghandi, for all his accomplishments, had some weird pedo shit going on.

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 6 points 3 months ago

Right? Like buddy maybe test yourself by not testing yourself, ffs.

idk about that, but he said Jews shouldn't use violent resistance even to save themselves, their families, and their communities from the Nazis in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising.
