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
Americans don't need to rip out their hair and rend their clothes. Americans need to give land back to tribal governments and pay reparations to Black people. Americans can then pay reparations to other marginalized minorities and other countries that the US has destroyed (Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Afghanistan, Iraq, and so on)
So where are the reparations then? "Oops I made a big boo-boo" doesn't fucking cut it. Vietnam still has victims dying from Agent Orange. Laos still has millions of UXO littering their country. But has the US foot the bill to clean up the mess they caused? Of course not.
The US has killed far more people than Putin. Hell, Dubya alone has killed far more people in eight years than Putin did in his entire life. Orders of magnitude more people.
Most of those coups are anti-French coups with popular support because no one there wants to be ruled by the French. It isn't a threat to democracy if some neocolonial puppet who's only there due to rigged elections got kicked to the curb by anti-French military officers.
Talk is cheap. When is the US going to actually do something about it? Where's the forty acres and a mule Black people were promised for turning on their plantation slavemasters?
