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.
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

you're not supposed to think about how capitulating voting pressure leaves exactly zero avenues for pressuring politicians they approve of
See, there are other options on the table, they just don’t like the implication of those options. It’s about maintaining this illusion that the Democrats are a real political party built from member consensus and not a de facto official state party. Any realistic pressure path would require acknowledging the nature of the beast.
these libs probably clutched pearls at yelling at dems in public, nevermind sit-ins and more direct action
