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

Rambling about how anger is bad and hope is good

[–] frauddogg@hexbear.net 30 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (3 children)

Here, lemme try; I always had a good Drone King impression.

"I feel that we uh, have forgotten from where we came, when we give into the kind of anger and hatreds that uh, that blinds us to the collective humanity that we all share. There is, no way toward a constructive peace when uh, when we try to build something without hope; and my hope is that uh, that those who have that kind of anger, will see the light before November 5th."

Only thing you're missing is his weird emphasis on random words and the way he speeds up towards the end of his sentences, and I'm not even sure you're missing it because the end feels like he's speaking faster

If I was more of a ghoul I could probably land an SNL job off that alone; because the speed-up was intentional; as was the build to a shillish point

You're incredible. Go on snl and get fired like a lleftist Shane Gillis
