Don't you realize that someone will win the election no matter what you do?!

Anti-electoralism gets boiled down to in-group aesthetics just like everything else on social media, but the genuine article is a historically based argument about the ability to do revolution at the ballot box. It’s about not repeating the mistakes of the past and accidentally directing energy where it’s going to burn you out. And it’s difficult to even make this argument in the imperial core in a way that lands because the base for revolutionary community and activity has been so thoroughly purged from here.

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
