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.

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

Western Leftists, it's 100% your fault that Joe Biden isn't a tankie.

Sorry, but after 5 minutes, I had to stop and skim the transcript. Although in fairness, he ends it with don't put too much emphasis on electoralism which is correct.

I don't understand how or why he keeps hating on MLs so much. There was a point where he was saying how the argument liberals make for why they can never do any better is blah blah blah all the fallacious tactics libs use and we know is wrong (this point he's correct on). Then he said "doesn't that sound a bit like Marxist Leninists..." and I almost got whiplash, why would you use a very large historical/international tendency as the benchmark to describe how bad liberals are??

Meh, he's just a trend-chaser or an opportunist, depending on how charitable you are. I can't take anyone who changes political ideology as much as him seriously. He went from an ancap to an ancom to an ML to an MLM to some vague ultraleftist. He's probably going to be a Trot in a couple years.
