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 liberal brainwashing is complete, they're as rabid as neo-cons.

Isn't it funny how these peaceniks only come out against war when the tide turns in Ukraine's favor

What?

I know the U.S. is breaking international law to give them seized Iranian weapons and ammunition, but every single source basically agrees they're bleeding out for inches

I know propaganda is a hell of a drug, but still!

Completely botching a counter offensive because NATO tactics and weapons suck ass is the tide turning in Ukraine's favour apparently.

For decades, NATO tactics have involved the military equivalent of smuglord where it's a bunch of arrogant presumptions of superiority while never critically testing them against a peer military.

Beating up a toddler to demonstrate your superior strength

Well to be fair there is also Ukrainian corruption and the simple fact that Russia is just the bigger power

there is no tactic that could make Ukraine capable of winning this war they already lost at the strategic level before it even started

Yeah, also very true.

They needed NATO to get directly involved (NO FLY ZONES!!! ARTICLE 5!!) or they needed NATO economic pressure to heavily damage Russia. Neither happened, so they are shit out of luck and just drawing out an inevitable defeat

That is already a self own, it explicitly admits we were right all along, that Russia was winning for the past 18 months which is something they denied throughout.

And we were saying 18 months ago to stay the fuck out of it.
