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

America is genocidal, sure, but so is every single other society in the history of civilization. America is exceptional because of the technology and the art it contributed to genocide, which is the goal of every civiliztion, remember. Pointing out the difference in scale of US atrocities just prevents us working together for greater justice.

Who said anything about starting a war?

Look at the gears turning in Taiwan and the South China Sea

This is not the testimony of a single person.

Nevertheless it is only testimony, and there is a history of fake testimony to justify US foreign policy

In this article there are several accounts from direct witnesses.

The BBC article gives unfalsifiable testimony from three named witnesses, one anonymous guard, and a chime-in from notorious bullshitter Adrian Zenz

There is a lot of corroborating information

Overhead pictures of camps — no one is disputing there are camps — and a small number of unfalsifiable witness accounts

There is a mountain of evidence

Falun Gong site with a list of unfalsifiable witness accounts that are just text and a name, with no pictures



there's a whole Zenz rabbit hole but I'm going to sleep, here are two examples
