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
Tell me you don’t know what words mean without telling me you don’t know what words mean lol “small Government communist” read a book you Reddit ass dork
radlibs see a bunch of "authoritarian" socialist states and wonder why communism is so totalitarian
when really it's just
(the bullet holes being Western sanctions, attempted coups, etc)
“That Allende guy had some great ideas about land reform! What ever happened to him?…”
Seeing my reply in a screenshot on hexbear:
It gave me a good chuckle.
I must say as an inveterate lurker that these threads have been very fun to read but beyond that I do really think everyone is doing a good job.
We always say when you get into an exchange with someone you aren’t trying to change their mind, you’re trying to convince the 10 lurkers reading the exchange.
Well I think anyone reading will be able to clearly see which side is working with consistent definitions and that is certainly impactful when you read these exchanges.
This is not one of those exchanges I just couldn’t stop laughing at the idea of someone identifying as a “small government communist”
Solid dunking comrade o7
The kind words and encouragement are appreciated very much comrade o7
I came here after reading some blahaj drama threads where they were throwing absolutely wild accusations meanwhile the hexbears were the only ones trying to have actual civil discussion
The true best feeling is when you show up in a screenshot on one of the anti-tankie comms, Ive had like at least 4 or 5 show up on the meanwhileongrad comm, helped assuage my impostor syndrome, really helped me feel like a real socialist lol
You're so famous. I'm gonna become your public owned groupie. :3
Ahhhh you followed me to another thread get back evil hornyposting tankie!!! Vanguard I need backup again!!!

Idk how I'm following you, I don't even know who you are. Must be the forward planning Marx has been referring to. The commie overlords had us made to be together. 
yeah yeah save it for the People's Revolutionary Volcel Court
they will decide your fate.
I got one in a defederation post and got a good laugh. It wasn't even a political post! I was explaining how emojis work!
"Small government communist" What in the world? Is this some kind of voluntaralist nonsense? Im scrambling to wonder what this even refers to?
It’s when Paul Ryan runs a workers co-op that manufactures guns to shoot Medicare recipients
anarchism is when the state is smol bean
There are posts and comments that are so ridiculous that I choose to believe they are doing it on purpose. I know that a lot aren't, but I cope better thinking that they are.
Maybe he's just going off the stateless, classless, moneyless society thing. Seems hard to have a government without a state.
Yes that's all great, I don't even think that person is a total piece of shit or anything, but there's like 2-500 years of history we need to get through between now and then.
No absolutely not and that’s why I blacked out their name but I just found this exchange hilarious. I do honestly hope this person takes the time to educate themselves further because I think they’re hearts in the right place and they’re probably just a kid. Truly just think the term “small government communist” is hilarious and I hope they can laugh about it someday too.
Yeah, he's very confused. He needs to read something instead of arguing and telling us what he thinks we believe
Ultras like every revolution except for the ones that succeed.
I think it's just a kid, but goddamn are they stupid/idealistic/naive
Thats my read too. Their political vocabulary is pretty telling here. They jist don't know what they're talking about and sre very confident about it
They jist don't know what they're talking about
Completely fair, we all learn everyday
are very confident about it
Wish our society would instill more humility. Every lesson is like a debate these days, people have to be convinced of everything, no one is capable of just going "you know what, I don't actually know anything about this subject, it seems like you're knowledgeable, can I ask you about..."
Yeah, i think we'd all be happy to help them learn but they are too assured that they know everything and are the "actual" communist unlike us
That's what dunking is for as well. I used to be like that, until I got made so much fun of I went "ILL SHOW THEM, I'M GONNA READ ALL THE STUFF THEY TOLD ME TO READ AND THEN IM GONNA READ THE CRITIQUE OF THE STUFF AND THEN I'LL OWN THOSE FUCKING COMMIES" and then I read the text and started to realise I'd been a total idiot
Perfect response. I was reading this thread as it was going down and that comment is legendary, "small government communist" is an evergreen bit. These people are trolls, whether they know it or not
Im a smol bean communist.
Communism is when the state is small, and the smaller the state, the more communist it is
Ah, must be a fellow AnCom! Nice to see one of my people. 
I don't think this is an ancom lmao. they sound like a confused 
Oh bummer. I was already dreaming of dismantling hierarchies, establishing communism and maybe kiss on the rubble of Wall Street together with them. 
Yah know it didn’t even occur to me that the closest political tendency to what this person is describing is anarcho communism. If that was the term they used there would be no dunk but “small government” is such telling verbiage lol
There might be a small chance that they mean well but are just too America brained but otherwise if you get rid of the government before dismantling capitalism, it will just fill up the power vacuum and it’s gonna be Mad Max time.
I was trying to get this kid to explain his tendency of "democratic communism" to me
when someone says they're a "small government communist": read a book you Reddit ass dork
when someone says they're an "anarchist": . . . .
😂
