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

Been thinking about Mao’s “No investigation, no right to speak” a lot lately. Here’s the latest from Objective Unbiased Science™️ (hexbear.net)

You can’t “debunk” Marxism by skimming the Wikipedia page. You can’t expound on your infantile “critique” from a position of total ignorance.

Every time a liberal “debunks” Marxism it is, without fail, not a single exception, the exact same shit that was discredited 150 years ago. A lot of “Marx didn’t consider”s that he’s written entire essays on. They can’t come up with literally anything new, spewing the same shit over and over again like a broken record.

Are liberals allergic to academic honesty?

And no I am not German I stole the screenshot.

Could you explain what the premise of the theory is?

I can try. PBS did a pretty good 20 min video. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JnKzt6Xq-w4.

My summary, we have proven that local reality isn't real. What that means is particles don't have a fixed location/spin etc. Recent nobel prize winners proved this at a galactic scale. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-universe-is-not-locally-real-and-the-physics-nobel-prize-winners-proved-it/

Most physicists believe this applies to the entire universe. However there is a loop hole, which is a theory that past events happened which set those particles characteristics. Or in otherwords position isn't determined by probability, it's determined by hidden variables and if we looked far enough into the past we'd be able to determine what those variables are. That theory is super determinism.
