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 [email protected]

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

you are anti-Western

EDIT: Imagine claiming to support the West while opposing antisemitism lmao. The West fucking honed antisemitism into an art form.

Medieval kings used to fuck up and make the pope mad then expel all the Jews as a way to make amends. "See, I'm godly! I exiled the children of Abraham!" The first pitstop many crusaders made on their way to the Levant was to sack and burn Jewish settlements on their way east.

Over a thousand years of rampant systemic antisemitism. The holocaust forced a lot of people to finally go "oh fuck" and realize the logical endpoint of their casual antisemitism. And this stupid asshole belittles that too with her krystalnacht comparison. I refuse to take moral lessons from the historically illiterate. Take your vibes-based moralizing and shove it up your ass, Fartlow. You know how I know history is on our side? Because some of us actually study it.

If only they'd also realized it's the logical endpoint of capitalism as well.

Totally. Racial and ethnic hatred is mutually assured destruction when facing a global catastrophe, like climate change, or a totalizing global system of oppression like capitalism.

yeah, the holocaust made them temporarily embarrassed but never fear, in typical westoid fashion, they then offloaded the problem on palestine and got a neocrusader state in return!

She is literally currently acting as a defender of the West WHILE spouting antisemitic shit (comparing the fucking Kristallnacht to a bunch of college students, some of them Jews, sitting in their quad)

She is the entire circus
