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

Musk is a war criminal for not wanting to help escalate a conflict that could go nuclear.
Don't get me wrong I wish Musk would trip into a volcano but this is actually a good thing
Edit: Another banger holy shit lol
Plus the whole "he committed treason" stuff makes my blood boil. All treason is the state not liking you.
Their worldview becomes consistent once you remember that they only care about denigrating state enemies, and the truthfulness of what they say doesn’t matter as long as it achieves that goal
Hmm, I wonder how Russians felt in the mid 90s.
CW: Self Harm
Oh. Oh no.
The world was optimistic about Russia?
Look at Russian inflation rate.

Yeah, everyone had so much confidence in the guy who was frequently drunk in public while president.
Frequently drunk in public and had tanks fire upon parliament when they tried to impeach him. Western libs never had an issue with authoritarianism in liberalized Russia until it stopped being subservient to the West.
I hate Yeltsin whitewashing

Also Rigged the elections with Americans and the yanks boasted about it.
The well was fundamentally poisoned when it came to implementing “democracy” in post-Soviet states; if the idea was, no more communist totalitarianism, no more state party, you can pick from multiple parties, that runs into a self-defeating issue for liberalism if the people just end up voting for the communist party. So they implemented de facto, or just outright explicit, bans on the communist party from gaining power. Being rigged was baked in.
The only reason he cut service was so he wouldn't have to deal with arms regulations. I doubt he cares about preventing nuclear war, at least more than ITAR.
