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

shut the fuck up you depraved straight white fucks. i’m to blame for my own oppression? fuck you, you sniveling chucklefucks, you deserve to be drowned in a vat of boiling acid, i’m still not voting for your favorite war criminal

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 49 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They literally do this to muslims all the time. To them, muslims and their religion are the source of their own oppression.

It's not just for voting either, there was a ~~reddit~~ post about different styles of Muslim head coverings and people were calling it backwards and anti western. As if muslims right now aren't experiencing the enlightened progress of a genocide at their hands.

I'm tired boss

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 49 points 2 months ago (3 children)

Every Westerner is a mini Hitler. They will not stop preaching about how enlightened and progressive they are unlike those backwards savages. Western society is deeply, irredeemably racist and genocidal (not that anyone here doesn’t know this). Especially Western Europe, despite their constant “uwu I’m a widdle clueless European and I don’t know what racism is” comments on American news right before they demand that China be carved up for its own good and call for the extermination of Muslims.

99% of Westerners believe in their absolute superiority. A large majority believes that everyone else is less than human. They freely admit this in each other’s presence. The only problem the average Westerner has with the Holocaust is that it killed white people.(Slavs don’t count as white for this purpose) This is evident in the absolute contempt they have for nonwhite victims of the Nazis.

As for the man himself, Hitler to them is a Nazi Jesus that absorbed all the sins of Europe and absolved them of all their crimes.

After liberating a concentration camp in Nazi Germany, a frustrated soldier went into a nearby German town. He wanted to ask questions, how could this have happened, why didn't the locals do anything? Did they truly not know what was happening?
He asked a local baker and the response was written in his diary. It made the soldier completely forgive the German people, I have here written it in it's entirety: "Yeah I knew what was going on and while I didn't agree with it, they brought it on themselves, so why should I care? They should've voted harder for Hindenburg."

Actually, Republicans that sign it into law and cops that enforce said laws are the ones who make Project 2025 happen. Hope that helps!

[–] robinnn@hexbear.net 54 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Don't forget the Democrats that enable those Republicans!

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 30 points 2 months ago (2 children)

What i find weird is how there are two ostensibly opposed parties with dozen of millions voters yet there aren't any loud protests organised by them. Reps implement bad law? Organize million people, something pretty easy for huge party as dems and flood the streets!

Or alternatively, both are in cahoots and what they both really fear is million organised people.

[–] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 24 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

It’s why I genuinely cannot imagine anything remotely close to Latin American mobilizations happening with democrats. If Trump launched an actual coup against Biden, and Biden calls for his supporters to mobilize, they will just do nothing but stand around and chant and get massacred and think it’s good because their enemies will reflect and feel shame, and Biden gets overthrown anyway because his popular support is full of losers

Republicans do protest. Albeit for stupid reasons. But they’re dangerous because they genuinely see you as an enemy and intend to hurt, harass, or even kill you. They don’t always succeed and often embarrass themselves, but the energy and desire are there and it can be cultivated by their politicians and pundits. Democrats will turn you over to the very same cops trying to kill them.

On a similar note, there are tens of millions of democrats, but biden is the only person they could find who could compete against Trump lol. They couldn’t find someone in their 40s-50s who understand the youth and the olds and have cognitive awareness.

It's a fact. If Dems with their platforms and money really cared or believed in anything it would be easy to get people to show up, but when massive numbers come together actual cool stuff can happen, most people know that the elite doesn't give any fuck about them. People are just unsure and don't want to make the first moves. I've heard it said numerous times by people that are outwardly typical libs, something like "I would join a revolution, I just don't know where to start."

The thing that always makes me confused is the "blaming leftists" part, it's like libs have accepted the fascist framing of leftists being this big group that controls things.

[–] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 33 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

They always have. Before 2016, I remember seeing people complain about “radicals” ruining reform during Occupy Wallstreet. Then in 2016, “progressives” caused the election. Then after that, “tankies” keep censoring everything on social media and bullying Biden over Gaza

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago

You are allowed to criticize democrats for 1 minute every 47 years or else you are helping republicans get elected and you personally elected Trump.

If you say ACAB a magic spell turns you into a nightstick and the cops use you to beat minorities. Feel bad yet?

[–] Egon@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

But also we shouldn't be listened or catered to at all because then they will lose votes

[–] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 63 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

Another 196 spinoff cringe

The grand irony is the comment section of people complaining about terminally online leftists when these are the most terminally online people I've encountered.

As a voting American, i can only play by percentages of what I think might happen, and I know 10000% that Trump will quadruple down on Israeli support, as contrasted with someone like Biden (or ideally not Biden at all), who might only increase support to Israel by 50%

I’m not saying any of it is perfect, but would you rather give Israel MUCH MORE funding, or slightly more funding?

Liberals are incapable of thinking things might get better. They cannot grasp the concept of "asking for something for your vote"

[–] Tomboymoder@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 27 points 2 months ago

They just keep adding zeroes for shock value or something, as if them saying it makes it reality.

Have you considered Biden might be 99% Hitler but Trump is 10000000% Hitler because he's going to do it to white people in America smuglord

[–] Swoosegoose@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago

Ignoring how these numbers are complete arbitrary nonsense the commenter put exactly zero thought into, Biden has been maximally supportive of Israel for his entire career. If there was room for quadruple support of Israel Biden would already be supporting Israel that much more. People say Trump would be even worse for Palestinians but at this point they need to back up that claim with some evidence. When biden was a senator he literally told the prime minister of Israel that they have a right to kill women and children to defend Israel. He will stoop to any level to support Israel and their genocide of Palestine.

[–] Dirt_Owl@hexbear.net 62 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Holy shit I lost half of my brain cell reading that Reddit thread.

Why did I even click the link, I don't have a Reddit account to reply to them with.

But good lord these nerds need to be bullied.

A trans person who said they suffered just as much under Biden as under Trump got down voted for just saying her experience lmao

Jesus Christ what a shithole.

If that trans person is a Hexbear and sees this, I am so sorry that Redditors are fucking brainless ghouls. But know to outsiders you made a damn better point than the blueMAGAs telling you to vote for Genocide Joe.

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 37 points 2 months ago (3 children)

fr. there are still homeless trans people all over the place, this is simple proof that this country is built to fuck us, no matter the party

We all remember this profound poem, when millions lay dead due to the actions of an imperialist, fascist dictatorship and most particularly a group of people at the top of the political command who maintained their support for apocalyptic war in eastern Europe and the genocide of minorities until the very end:

First they came for the Communists
And, tbh, they deserved it
Because they did not vote for Biden

Then they came for the trans people
And, tbh, they deserved it
Because they did not vote for Biden

Then they came for the immigrants
And, tbh, they deserved it
Because they did not vote for Biden

Then they came for the gay people
And, tbh, they deserved it
Because they did not vote for Biden

Then they came for the white Democrats
And now we have to endure fewer treats
Because these stupid minorities did not vote for Biden

Big Muslim, Big Trans, BLM, and the CCP control the world, didnt you hear?

[–] Gorb@hexbear.net 46 points 2 months ago

This framing I feel is just libs trying to shift the blame onto the victims of their uselessness so when Trump does get in they'll just say "you didn't vote for Joe therefore you deserve it" like they do to women in red states who lost the right to abortion.

The liberal ideology is just about feeling morally superior and being insufferably smug about it.

The amount of people not voting because they saw a meme on Twitter isnt enough to change anything.

The amount of people not voting because they don't care and because Biden hasn't done anything for them is enough. So, Biden should do something, pay people to go out and vote.

[–] citrussy_capybara@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

last time he promised people $2000 to vote for him and didn’t deliver, so make sure to get the payment up front amerikkkan voters (and still vote for PSL or something and not genocide joe)

Kinda infantilizing to think that a meme is why people wont vote for Biden

If biden atleast gave me a stimulus id vote for him bc voting doesnt matter but a bribe would sure smooth that over

I added my two cents:

This queer leftist isn't a democrat and I'm not voting for a dogshit candidate that doesn't represent my values. The Dems aren't entitled to our votes simply because they're not the republicans. When Biden loses, that's the fault of the party that nominated him, not the electorate.
