Oh, I’ve heard plenty: “You can’t conflate national and state parties/governments”; “If we did that, then all the poors would want to move here”; “These things take time”; “Complex problems don’t have simple solutions”; “Democrats aren’t all progressives”; “If you believe that strongly you should vote/run for office”; “If you don’t like it just move” Oh wait hold on:

compelling

Oh yeah then no. If they were honest they’d say something about corporations so severely owning the party but it’s not like they have a solution for that beyond voting harder.

Complex problems don’t have simple solutions

Then propose a complex solution instead of proposing nonsensical solutions or no solution at all.

In some cases subsidizing failing companies to keep them afloat is better than letting them fail, some towns/areas only have one major employer and letting them go bust means everyone living in that area gets absolutely fucked due to no fault of their own. Sure the government should just nationalize them or strip ownership and turn em into a co-op but we are talking about capitalist hell holes so sometimes subsidies are better than doing nothing.

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
