I would amend that to say that libs feel a desperate need to feel right. And to have that conviction backed up in public.

That’s why Trump hurt them so bad. Here was proof, in public, in broad daylight, that America had heard everything they had to say (how could anyone not, with the corporate media bleating pro-Hillary 24/7) and rejected them. This hurt them deep, deep in their core, and there is no going back from that. That’s why they went for the Russiagate conspiracy theory so hard, because it provided an explanation of why they were actually right and everyone else in America was actually wrong.

People will forgive you for being wrong, but they will never forgive you for being right—especially if events prove you right while proving them wrong.

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
