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

They put the UN as bad guys? Is it because seppos think they're bad since they sometimes oppose for good measure some invasions?

they committed the unforgivable sin of asking Israel to stop murdering their workers

What happens when you watch too many marvel movies.

Morality!

They are the GOOD guys, the others the BAD guys. You are not allowed to question what the goals are, why a conflict exists or what exactly makes the "good guys" good, beyond a simple identification with the status quo.

These will be the 2 sides of WW3 and I will be joining the bad boys

[–] [email protected] 11 points 10 months ago (2 children)

These won't be the sides of ww3 because the bottom line won't start a war if it's against that lineup, they know they'd lose it.

You would think that, but America has been ramping up aggression and hybrid warfare against Iran, China and Russia simultaneously and trying to pick multiple fights at once so who knows. America is flailing and desperate, it cannot be counted on to act rationally

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Hmm.

It all depends on India then.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Wild cards are India and Saudi Arabia

It's also unclear whether South Korea, Japan and Turkey would sit it out on the sidelines or join with the crackkker forces

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

Japan and South Korea will have no choice, they are american bases. They will be targeted and dragged in if any large scale conflict occurs purely because those bases can't be left unchecked.

Winning is not the point of imperialist war, it merely makes money and misery.

97.5% of Americans believe that Guyana is a type of Mexican fruit

I don't understand, sounds too complex to me, could she explain in other terms, like Voldemorts and Luke Skywalkers so I can understand more easily?

This person looks 13

In a world where you put yourself against the entire world as represented by the U.N and say you're the good guys. Surprise motherfucker, you're not the good guys if the entire world considers you their enemy.

PUT SOME RESPECT ON YEMEN

My favorite type of NATOid is the one who simps for western hegemony and NATO, but then puts Turkey and Hungary (and sometimes India) in the Bad Guy List. Like bro these are literally your people. You don’t get to be mad at them because they literally work for you. It’s not my fault they’re reactionary and corrupt and do business with Russia.

Because of the disagreement with Venezuela over Essequibo- Enemy of my enemy, etc

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 months ago

Exactly the opposite of truth

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

You say the UN is the bad guys, yet the US is part of the UN as well. Curious, very curious.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

well at least they know they side with the imperialist order
