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

believes the IDF to only be targetting Hezbollah and not population centers

agony-limitless

my news source specifically states that it's fair and balanced. are you saying they're allowed to lie on tv??

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

Israel said that Israel is doing nothing wrong, why shouldn't I believe Israel?

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 month ago

they couldn't come up with a way to refer to it that wouldn't make the entity sound bad and resorted to this garbage

I'm stealing this idea.

it's a really good bit, tbh

Dude thinks she’s westernized because she doesn’t build bombs or rockets in her free time.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

which is correct, odrub odrub tel aviv

[–] [email protected] 81 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Gaza is small, but it's not that small.
Cannot stress how delusional you have to be to think the leveling of pretty much all standing structures and the displacement of millions of people is all just a big oopsies.

Meanwhile these Zionist cry crocodile tears because they had to go into a nice safe bunker while the Iron Dome safely neutralizes rockets.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 month ago

interesting claim, unfortunately for you, my tv says different smuglord

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

Zionist cry crocodile tears

I always refer to Norman Finkelstein on this topic.

Why are Northern Israelis so scared of Hezbollah? After all, Hezbollah says they only attack military targets.

parachute this person into South Lebanon and before you kick them out of the plane's back exit ramp tell them "you'll be fine, you're not a mlitant right? and you're sooooo educated."

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago

Parachute this person into ~~South Lebanon~~ a pit. But replace the parachute contents with silverware

pit

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This but switch out their parachute with a cinder block first

make sure there's a picket sign in the bag that just says "Oops!"

"Don't forget to take this lunch i packed you byeeeeeeeee

[–] [email protected] 61 points 1 month ago

even on reddit-logo they're getting roasted in the comments

[–] [email protected] 61 points 1 month ago (1 children)

This one is kinda sad because you can see that this Zionist has brought into the liberal side of the propaganda. He may be less i-am-adolf-hitler than the others but he is living in an entirely different world than the rest of us.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 month ago

He may be less "I am Adolf Hitler"

did you see the "they are very westernised, they speak good english and french"?

Very Adolf Hitler

"Reddit I keep telling her she's one of the good ones but for some reason she still thinks that her friends, family, and neighbors are in danger from the indiscriminate terror attacks! Am I the asshole?"

Man, how many amitheasshole clones does reddit need?

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Next they need /r/amialiberal

It's the username created for the specific purpose of creating this post that gets me here. You gotta respect this person that named themselves "roommateirrational" for seeking sincere opinions on whether their roommate is being hysterical.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It doesn't sound like he's asking if the roommate is hysterical, but instead is wondering if it's wrong to badger them about how hysterical they are, which he is already certain they are because Israel "precisely targets militants" only. To ask if her fears are well-founded would be questioning his reality which is usually too much for any redditer to comprehend.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago

Can't get any more precise than the checkout line at the store!

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 month ago

This guy is a terrible person. Can't even put aside his Zionist propaganda beliefs to empathise with his roommate.

I'm sure the bombs will see the masters degree on the wall and refuse to explode

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 month ago

They literally had a funeral for a fourth grade girl who was killed by a pager when she tried picking it up.

If your military can't handle elementary school kids and views them as existential threat, maybe your country doesn't deserve to exist.

This has to be bait

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 month ago

How tf do people say this shit? Zionism is pretty much a mental health epidemic at this point.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago
