Posting this thread a little earlier than normal because this night will be a little unusual. For this special Thursday Political Theatre Night, 9PM EST, Hexbear Comrade @dead asked the powers-that-be for a brand-new channel on Hextube, and got it, at https://live.hexbear.net/c/news , where he will host the real-life comedy movie known as the Presidential Debate. Behold as two doddering old men stumble over their words and lose their train of thought as they struggle to convince you why they should be the steward of a genocidal empire. Be prepared for psychic damage. Thank you to Comrade @dead for hosting this very special event. All credit and gratitude goes to him. Make sure to show up at 9PM sharp, as the event is live.

After the debate is over, come over to https://live.hexbear.net/c/movies for Civil War (2024), a dystopian thriller from Alex Garland, the director who brought you Ex Machina (2015) and Annihilation (2018). Oh god, America has fallen apart! Roving bands of marauders now terrorize the countryside as a group off war journalists try to reach Washington DC to understand what’s really going on. Somehow, California and Texas ended up on the same side. Will we find out how? I dunno. Let’s watch.

The debate begins at 9PM EST, and the movie will start shortly after it ends, at about 11PM EST.

Somehow that was worse than I expected

That is the best summation. I expected it to at least be funny.
