I had a turbolib make that argument about their sacred holy pallets. Yeah, pallets. “How is your socialist mass transit going to move my pallet?”

Xi Jinping wants to rely less on coal because it’s profitable. Elon Mungus wants to transition to electric vehicles because he cares deeply about my well being, and he wants to reward my love for him. That’s the difference between the demonic communists and capitalists.

You build a high speed rail endpoint somewhere, and development will happen there. That’s what I always point out.

That’s why dense populations are always on rivers, because you can transport things along them easily. Trains are the same more or less.

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
