the_dunk_tank
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

Unfortunately you just stepped into the Hexbear trap. Below you will find a hundred correct comments about how conservatives are neoliberals and that neoliberalism is just another arm of fascism anyway.
I hope you stick around and read and learn in good faith though it'll be good for ya.
As proponents of (small r) republicanism, constitutionalism, rule of law (which they refer to as 'law and order'), free markets, and private property, American 'conservatives' are indeed Liberals. They just advocate for shittier public policy. There is nothing inherently progressive about Liberalism. The United States was simultaneously a slave plantation oligarchy and a Liberal Democracy.
The presence of universal suffrage and civil liberties are concessions which took centuries to extract from the Liberals, by social movements with many Communist organizers at their core. And yet under Liberal Democracy, we still have legal slavery, lack universal sufferage (felony disenfranchisment along with a vast legally constructed underclass of undocumented workers), and civil liberties which only exist if you can afford a well connected Harvard-educated lawyer.
It'll be awhile before we get to 100. Some of us are working our dog walking jobs and others are waiting for our xibux to clear. Give us a minute
With China being on the edge of collapse, you're damn right I'm waiting for my xibucks to clear.
theres are plenty of sane commenters, they just seem to be downvoted every time.
Hexbear doesn't have downvotes. The difference in votes is just from the massive weight of your shitty opinions.
