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

The tatoo is basically a slavic swastika.
But also:
is there more nazi stuff in this picture too?
The iron cross, the skulls, and im pretty sure the eagle on his hat is holding a swastika
There's probably more but admittedly I don't know all of them
also the whole uniform is obviously modelled on the SS and he has given himself an iron cross which is technically just a German medal for bravery but in the context of a homemade SS uniform is reasonably interpretable as a nazi symbol
the trees behind him are the only non nazi parts of the image and someone probably carved a swastica in the bark
"Totenkopf" which is written and also the skull symbol he has all over, are Nazi SS symbols. Also iron cross is sus especially when combined with all that. This guy is a (dead) nazi.
what is a nazi doing in ukraine?
There are many Nazis in Ukraine. Multiple Nazi battalions like Azov. And before the Russian invasion happened "Ukraine has a Nazi problem" was actually a common (correct) narrative in the media. It stopped once the invasion started, but it was there.
Unfortunately, it is quiet common for photos of Ukrainian soldiers to feature fascists symbols like the black sun.
the mass media at least tried the effort to censor these, now libs just larp up the propaganda even if there's some removed with 59 nazi tattoos sprinkled around their body. Unlimited genocide on nazi sympathizing liberals.
Dying for his Nazi country, apparently.
