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

  1. because the ideas themselves weren't defeated. only a single physical manifestation of them (the USSR).

  2. because the cruelty is the point

as a side note. I wanna say that real Leninheads know that Lenin didn't want to be embalmed anyway. so destroying his mausoleum would actually be a win for him.

I just don't get the reverse pyrrhic victory here where you've won everything, wholesale, no downsides for you and also can't ever admit it.

Like bomb Ho-Chi-Minhs grave or something at least Vietnams still communist

That reminds me. Fred Hampton's grave regularly gets shot up by cracker supremacists
