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 [email protected]

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

I thought the top comments would be a Biden cheering section. Right now they certainly aren't. I think this is typical...

I don't know what they measure prosperity by but my groceries, healthcare, and bills keep going up, housing is still unaffordable, the economy is still "down" so our corporate overlords are denying raises and threatening our jobs and "downsizing", and government is still doing nothing about low wages and our serious issues with healthcare...

Who is prospering? Rich people maybe?

Rich people maybe?

That's generally what is called 'fixing the economy' by the media.

But r/politics is predictably bad. Once we get close enough to the elections - they'll change their tune to "Look, we all know Biden isn't perfect. But do you want fascism?"
