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

“All this antisemitism is very frightening,” she continued. “I know the baristas here and it’s just very upsetting that all these young people are – I don’t know what they are, ignorant? Hateful? Brainwashed? It’s very scary this is what’s happening in this country, but I hope somebody knows how to fix it because it’s really scary.”

Quitting your job is now antisemitism.

fucking christ this shit is old, it's just like all the republican manufactured persecution.

  1. create nation for a religion
  2. ????
  3. now anyone who opposes that country is an anti-whatever

are Israelis islamophobes for hating muslims? oh of course not, calling them islamophobes is probaby anti-semitism in their smoothbrains. religion is stupid as fuck.

The median level of Islamophobia in Israel has gotta be pretty high though

To be fair though, I think Zionists project the idea of being in conflict with muslims because they realize muslims scare many Westerners, otherwise I think they just hate Arabs in general. They're not any kinder to Christian Palestinians either, and both Syria and Lebanon have high Christian populations.

when i visited around 2004 (birthright trip), i was quite shocked to hear them talk about arabs the way hungarians talk about the romani.

that 10 day tour of israel was the beginning of my disillusionment with the entire fucking mess.

and then towards the end they tried to convince us to move there and join the IDF... yea right.

Israel was founded as a secular colonial project, most religious Jews at the time thought that taking back their ancestral land by force was basically sacrilege, and many who didn't move there still think this way. Herzl basically imagined Israel as this secular "beacon" of enlightened European values among the "savage" and superstitious Arabs. Zionists sometimes will use the Hebrew Bible to justify their genocide, but they don't actually give a shit about religion, you don't have to follow Judaism to move there, only be ethnically Jewish (and European, they don't like non white Jews either), they mostly say shit like that because evangelicals keep falling for it.
