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

Are they really going so high-brow as to call Palestinians "Voldemort"? I've seen far more comparisons to wild animals and 90s urban youth.

Comparing Palestinians to zombies feels very par for the course in the liberal zionist community.

liberal zionist community

I'm not strictly sure about liberal zionists, but I've certainly seen lots of zionists refer to or portray Palestinians as hicks or bumpkins (one person specifically called them terrorist bumpkins). I'm reminded of something I read on a wikipedia page once about European Zionists back in the forties and fifties thinking of Arab Jews as mentally challenged (the specific term wasn't so friendly). I'm also reminded of one of Hasan's guests saying there's even a genre of film about Arab Jews joining modern society and learning how to be civilized.

There was this gem from shortly after the October 7th attack.
