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

Imagine I posted the Albright 1996 clip saying the genocide of half a million children was a good thing.
Speaking of - remember how in 2004 people were saying the war in Iraq had killed a million Iraqi civilians? And in 2006? And in 2008? And 2011? And Afghanistan? And Palestine, 40k in less than month that has not been allowed to budge for nearly a year.
Before Blue MAGA there was the Third Way - and like all Secret Third Thing (TM) between Communism and Fascism it was, surprise to fuckin nobody, fascism, with Liberal characteristics.
They still downplay the iraq numbers too
"khezbollah controlled health ministry says.... "
"khamas controlled health ministry says... "
"iraqi controlled state health ministry says..."
goddamn i hate this shit. democracy bombs just dont actually ever kill anyone
Its hard to find documents on the net anymore, but when the sanctions regime between gulf war i and the second invasion killed god knows how many hundreds of thousands of iraqis they made some kind of claim that Saddam convinced all the demographers to change their results to exaggerate the death toll. They did not explain how saddam would do that or what the census people would comply.
I wish i'd somehow been able to retain all these documents. People who can just keep and organze and search vast amounts of data, citations, documents, have a very sharp sword at hand.
AFAIK Obama didn’t even use drones.
Exactly my point. They will maintain the lie until it becomes historical fact. Like the US "liberating" the concentration camps without mentioning how many people still died there because they refused to move the somewhere safe. How many queer people ended up back in prison because the USA agreed with their Nazi children, we should be criminalized. I stopped at 2011 for Iraq cause if the crime wasn't being counted by the end, it was never going to be.
Yeah. There's not much discussion of Jewish concentration camp prisoners being forced to remain in the camps, prevented from leaving to return home, sometimes under the same guards the nazis had employeed. There were a lot of places in the western zones where there were real fears the locals would re-start the killing, especially early after the end oft the war.
Yeah, they do this every time. They stop counting and just stick with the same number. It's the most memory hole 1985 double think ass shit. It plainly, obviously, cannot possibly be true. It can't be true. But they keep using the number from the start of whatever massacre month after month, year after year.
