I love the Explainer Mode™ people go into for these mind numbingly stupid analogies. There’s nothing so stupid that you can’t go into Explainer Mode to put yourself in the headspace of feeling like you’re making a nuanced point that nobody other than you understand.

“Look sweaty, this election is like if you are at a [food] shop, and you really want [food item] but you are informed that they only have [less desirable food item] and a literal human poop. Do you want to eat the poop? If you don’t vote that’s like saying you’re OK with eating the poop. Yes, I did say this exact same thing 4 years ago, why?”

The smugness is what angers me the most.

Create post

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
