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

It will never stop being funny when Hindu fascists find out the hard way that other fascists are way too racist to ever ally with them us-foreign-policy

Indians, at least the ones on the anglophone internet, simp so hard for Israel and yet the vocal Israelis you find online absolutely detest Indians in the most racist, chauvinistic way.

Watching this relationship play out online over and over is equal parts tragedy and comedy.

They imbibe India and Israel bilateral international relations and project it onto their simplistic worldview where countries are like persons that are friends or enemies with each other. The BJP government is cozy with Israel because they buy weapons and spyware from them. India has historically recognised Palestine but pivoted onto supporting Israel's genocide inequivocally under BJP. Their bots and supporters rim Israel at every opportunity for this reason. The rampant genocidal Islamophobia that BJP has festered is used to retroactively justify the support for Israel.

Of course the ethnonationalist state and its people and bots don't requit this love. I don't even know if Israel itself directly values India as an ally or not.

fascists have been doing that for almost a century and it's been hilarious every time.

Not only this but the same account posted "India should have remained a respected British colony" and "the UK should declare war and recolonize India" in the past

Israelis not siding with brown people who fought against a colonialist regime surprised-pika
