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

why are the lower classes...

If any statement starts off like this, it's time to get the guillotines out.

Why are the lower classes not simply guillotining the upper classes?

Brianna Wuld you kindly throw yourself into a volcano.

[–] Deadend@hexbear.net 33 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The volcano does not someone so loathsome.

I love (read: hate) every time some hypothetical example of pedophilia gets discussed and it's like "okay but hear me out, the victim gets a gorillion dollars, an island, a robot monkey friend, the cure for cancer, and technically all of the emotional trauma gets offloaded to their clone that gets created from a sample of ethically sourced DNA. Would it then be okay?"

Just... fuck off.

[–] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 42 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Seriously it's like "oh here's a fucking Rube-Goldberg procession of contrived scenarios designed to reach a point where you finally agree there's a point I'm trying to make and not just making you participate in me cranking my brain hog."

It's philosophy 101 meets edgelord meets bazinga meets pedophile apologia. It's a quadrilogy of shit. I fucking hate these people so much. Helluva way to start my day.

throwing these guys into the mining shaft and constructing long term nuclear waste warning message over it

[–] anonochronomus@hexbear.net 37 points 4 months ago (1 children)

The mine shaft is hungry. It demands flesh.

No highly esteemed deed is comemorated here

Nothing valued is here

What was here was dangerous and repulsive to us

Bit idea: Nazi complaining about how many friendships they lost over supporting a country perpetuating genocide

Oh wait

She sucks so much, for the uninformed, Brianna Wu is on the board for Progressive Victory, a PAC that funds shitty centrist streamers getting their stream kids to do extremely questionably effective voter outreach. She uses it as vehicle to insert her charisma void and terrible opinons in front of new audiences of unwary viewers.

All star cast:

( I think to her credit Emma Viglend seems to have disengaged from them after October 7)

Lmao why do all the biggest losers have to host little seminars. Do they really think they're great political minds?

[–] TheDoctor@hexbear.net 19 points 4 months ago

There’s a lot of money in filling up conference centers with bodies. The amounts of money our clients spend on an event boggles my mind. So yes, everyone does have to host their little seminars so line can go up.

Hey Brianna has it struck you that maybe you have lost a ton of friends because they have principals and you support a genocide?

[–] milk_thief@hexbear.net 15 points 4 months ago

dont worry the Porsches are her real friends anyway

[–] RedWizard@hexbear.net 31 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Entirely unrelated, but your pfp is just soo good.

Bermuda? Yes, back from Bermuda and the 20th century, heh-heh. And, believe me, you can have it. One big modern mess!

[–] Edie@hexbear.net 15 points 4 months ago (5 children)

I have no idea what you are talking about

But it's still funny che-smile

[–] Findom_DeLuise@hexbear.net 19 points 4 months ago

It's a reference to Disney's The Sword in the Stone (1963) -- it's an animated riff on Arthurian legend, with some wacky hijinks thrown in for good measure.

Brianna Wu? That zionist scumwoman who rolled her eyes every time someone brought up Israel's genocidal nature? That crackeress? That absolute Babylonian wretch? Doesn't surprise me that this neo-klansman is the kind of company she keeps.

I just got word that the babylonian copper scam artists also reject associating with her

Bro, just say you're a certified paedophile and go - no need for the thought experiments
