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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
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

Least fascist nordic social democracy
From what I understand, the energy companies take the path of least resistance, which means that they also plow through indigenous lands "over there", when they feel there's a greater chance of getting away with it "over there" compared to local indigenous lands.
Seriously, I haven't met a single Norwegian who knew about Pilmaiken before I mentioned it to thon! I myself wasn't aware of Pilmaiken until I got a message about it from a friend from Occupied Palestine, who themself heard it from an indigenous Tumblr blog based in the United Occupation Zones of America!
At least Iceland is too small and insignificant to have any real sway. Id say they're better for that reason
Jeg vil lære mer...
Yeah I was just now looking for photos of Norwegian soldiers, and found a decent number of photos of Norwegian SS volunteers instead..
Dang, and here I had lived under the impression that the Nordic countries were relatively less awful places for Jews compared to the rest of Europe. One of the things I remember reading about the two synagogues in Finland was that they were able to be built in prominent locations whereas in other countries they were often hidden out of view.
Then again, neither of them is very old and Finland's small Jewish community mostly moved here during the time it was part of the Russian empire as traders and merchants which is similar to how Finland's small Tatar Muslim population also arrived.
