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 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
your ethnicity was already lowercase in my other native language, as are all ethnicities. soon we will be freed from the shackles of capital(ist) letters for good, comrade! have we learned nothing from toki pona? from palawa kani? from some third language i'm unfamiliar with, whose orthography only makes use of lowercase latin letters? we don't want uppercase, we don't need uppercase. all that capital letters do is force children to learn a second set of letters that do all the same shit as the first set but are used less often. what type of garbage is that!
Damn they just lower cased the ketchup salad dressing
Damn they just lower cased one of the worst "salads" to ever exist.
we honor your sacrifice
things you do when you are winning the war
I'm starting to see why America hasn't won a war in like 100 years.
Because they've come to the conclusion they don't have to, and that plunging entire world regions into chaos is enough to secure their hegemony. When you've lost Korea and Vietnam and Iraq and Afghanistan and are still on top, you start to think "it doesn't matter, we just have to fuck shit up and it'll work in our favor". Amerika doesn't need all of Ukraine, they've already written off the losses. They've already gotten at least a decade worth of wartime production for the entire IMC of the Western world out of this, they've ended cheap Russian gas for their European allies-hostages-competitors and replaced some of the supply with their own gas shipments, they'll ultimately have a greater Eastern European sphere of influence than ever before, their stay behind nazi sleeper cells get free refills on military hardware and actual combat experience if they want to and Blackrock is buying finest Ukrainian farmland at bargain bin prices. A military victory where Russia doesn't get Crimea, Donbass and Luhansk means fucking nothing compared to all that, it'd be the cherry on top but it doesn't truly matter when all the other stuff is secure.
mr russia, your fired sir
hes fired
The royal academy of the Spanish language has always been run by the most reactionary, petty and self-important aristocratic geezers, as the name suggests, and considering Spain's history, they're VERY reactionary, petty and self-important.
Not even they do this kinda bs. This is clown shoes.
Also, if it's the Ukrainian spelling shouldn't it be in cyrillic?
They’re preparing for the romanization of Ukrainian language so they can get rid of all ruzzian influenza
Not when its geared to a Western English-speaking audience.
I have to imagine that academy gets its knickers in a bunch frequently with regards to regional variants of Spanish in the Americas.
is the implication supposed to be that Russia, the country, does not exist?
This radiates serious loser energy.
Reminds me of tRump. Which I always thought was caused by lead exposure but it's apparently some dumb joke genX likes (probably due to all the lead exposure).
Honestly "trump" is already Br*tish for "fart" so they literally could've left the name as it was and it still would've been a joke
More like sussia
I’d honestly have more respect for Ukraine if they officially made this the new name for Sussia
Now all we need is for Zelensky to accuse Putin of venting
wait i already do this with all words
a true anticapitalist
least childish Ukraine supporter
Propaganda used to be beautiful, dramatic, or horrifying paintings of war, military, and ideology. Now it’s just 240p edits of squished dogs in adidas outfits, getting mad when someone says “the Ukraine” or “Kiev,” and lowercasing countries’ names
It's only acceptable to get mad at someone for writing "the Ukraine" when it's in German and for a full-chest tattoo
The chapter where Sun Tzu stresses the importance of being insufferably and arbitrarily pedantic online is my favorite chapter in The Art of War.
They're doing the Drumpf bit again!
THEY'RE DOING THE DRUMPF BIT AGAIN!
what are nouns even
i remember when western media switched from Kiev to Kyiv, I think it was ~2019. even though Russian language is as much a part of Ukraine as Ukrainian is.

nationality is when you're racially and ethnically pure
How do I punch a comment?

The true solution to the Kyiv vs Kiev spelling debate is to spell the city's name as Qxuieghyiefvwue. It's the only way.
Grammar Nazis
OH MY GOD FINALLY WHAT TOOK THEM TOOK THEM SO LONG
Zelensky gets an eightball for every 5 old men that die on the front.
Ukraine: "i'm not being owned, you are!"
Reddit country
Damn it, they're stealing the bit I do where I never capitalize nazi.
mr putin, your fired sir
~~Russia~~ russia is finished
I was just in Pisa Italy and saw stenciled spray paints all over the sidewalks that said "RUSSIA IS A TERRORIST STATE" every other block or so.
Italy doing its part for NATO. 😆
Aren't you Gladio that Italy is doing their part?
