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

Look at this squad where 90% of people have died.

Don't worry though the war is going fine.

My honest reaction to this information is that the Al Qassam brigades have been very productive hamas-red-triangle

Their memories are absolutely not a blessing and it's awful seeing people twist such a beautiful sentiment trying to apply it to genocidal deaths squads. Rip bozos.

I wish fascist scholars would study modern day fascism that's laundered through feel good twee like this on facebook and twitter. I feel like it isn't looked into hard enough and plays a huge role in how suburban psychos go full blood and soil in our times.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 3 months ago

Nazi Germany is remembered for films like "Triumph of the Will" but most of its artistic output was actually twee and sentimental. I don't think this is a thing about modern fascism but about fascism in general.

I am deeply saddened by the fact that some of them are not yet grey.

Now as someone who lost her dad as a kid and knows the pain and trauma that this can inflict on a child, I must say... The children of these genocidal maniacs will grow up and one day realize they're glad that their parents died. By the time the children are done mourning, they will live in a free Palestine, or they'll have moved to another country, and there they will unlearn the propaganda that they were raised with. After this they will probably shame themselves at first for being glad that their parents died, and deny or struggle to admit that they feel this way; but with time they'll learn to accept this feeling. They will come to treat the suffering that their parents inflicted on myriad children, as if it was inflicted on themselves, and they will spit on their own parents' graves just as their peers whose parents they killed will. This is my prediction.

I keep my phone on black and white to lessen stimulation, thus they are all in black and white to me. I hope this is a portent of things to come

Maybe you shouldn't conscript people into your genocide force if you don't want them to die hamas-red-triangle

"the war"

You have to be a special level of incompetent to be killed in the middle of a one-sided genocide.

The memory of all these dead ass IDF crackers IS a blessing

[–] [email protected] 35 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Good. The only thing that would make me happier was if there was a hell for them to burn in

[–] [email protected] 22 points 3 months ago

Or if 100% of them died instead of 90

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago

Even if you don't believe in hell, an enemy that comes out of basically thin air at any moment and knows the battlefield like the back of his hand is something that made Gaza their hell.

This picture is way too colourful.

Punched me in the heart like a 5.56 through the heart of a Palestinian child running away from an IOF sniper who has a backpack full of lingerie he stole from women he murdered.

picture of a bunch of dead terroists and a few that are still alive for some reason

May they rest in piss. Considering how the occupier's rescue helicopter aren't targeted by the resistance and the trauma center are not that far off the front, that is an really high casualty rate for a single battalion, right ?

I do really wonder what is the real global casualty rates for the IOF.

More success to the brave resistance, the colonizer will fall.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (2 children)

I don't understand why they don't target the evac helicopters tbh. It seems advantageous if enemy infantry is scared to significantly advance forward for fear that they might not be rescued when they need it. I'm sure the resistance have a good reason not to shoot down the rescues, but guessing what it is is beyond my (admittedly steeped in and informed by american brutality) grasp of strategy.

Edit I just remembered that they are pursuing a strategy of guerrilla resistance where actually you want the enemy to advance

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago

Wounded soldiers are more of a detriment to a military (any equipment and personnel needed to get them out plus a hospital bed, doctors, and medical equipment, possibly for months, once they reach a hospital, all for someone who odds are won't ever be combat fit again) than dead ones are.

the hell does "May their memories forever be blessings" mean?

the dead don't have memories.

is this a language thing or like an idiot trying to sound poetic thing?

[–] [email protected] 33 points 3 months ago

By “memories” they mean “cum”

I'm surprised people didn't know this already, my impression was that this is a pretty well-known phrase.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

what I don't know could just about squeeze into the Grand Canyon.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 3 months ago

Probably supposed to mean 'may the memories their families have of them be cherished as blessings'

But nahhhhhhhhhhhh

[–] [email protected] 20 points 3 months ago

The memory of a bunch of fascists having been denazified is a blessing indeed.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 months ago

It’s a translation from a traditional Jewish (Hebrew) saying that is the most common thing to say when referring to someone who is deceased. You might also refer to a deceased person as “of blessed memory.”
