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

I love how they decided this is a "single issue voooting" thing. Even if there weren't other reasons to hate Biden, that would still be ok because genocide is an obvious red line that most people don't have a problem crossing.

But somehow we're the tankies?

After the Ukraine war started I was getting into quite a few arguments with people about tankies apologizing for Stalin's "Holodomor" and Katyn Forest and Molotov-Ribbentrop which would be pretty ironic coming from American liberals for anybody here familiar with any of these events before Oct 7th. But after Oct 7th these arguments become actual doublespeak. We're arguing with liberals that will take contradictory positions on anything as long as they have a BBC article to point to but they will accuse YOU of taking contradictory positions while they do it.
