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

Aaahhhhhhhhggggyhgderggdukjgffddswrtf

This is going to be a completely pointless comment, but I have to exorcize this demon:

  • "oppressed" is already a value judgement, so none of this can be "foundational" in the way he is claiming
  • oppression is a bad thing by definition, otherwise we'd call it something else
  • so the oppressed are always right in not wanting to be oppressed, by definition

dtgdrthgedseewqwefvvujnhfyjgfesaaaaaaaaaaghhhhh

He's literally saying "have you considered that bad things might actually be good"

berdly-actually To apartheid failsons, the oppressed can deserve to be oppressed, actually.

Exactly. When the weak group is in the right, we call them oppressed. Otherwise we call them terrorists, insurgents, criminals or something like that.

"Should be that right is right" is such an idiotic sentence as well.
