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

Why is everything an investment? So brain poisoned that they can't even imagine using global power for actual good unless you get a solid ROI.

Well, it is an investment, just in a different way. China knows that the way towards a sustainable socialist future is to develop all global economies, without the mechanisms of imperialism artificially perpetuating poverty and holding back the imperial periphery. If African nations develop into stability and independence it's good for everyone, if they remain trapped with American and European imperialist institutions it's only good for the imperialists.
