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

That article from Jewish Currents is really interesting. It's the first time I've heard of double genocide theory. This explains that whole thing with Canadian Parliament applauding that old SS soldier a few years ago.

The next time someone tells me the Soviets killed 20grajillion people I'm just going to tell them they're a Holocaust denier and watch their head spin.

Didn’t that happen like a few months ago? Or does Canada just have multiple incidents of applauding Nazis?

This reminds me of the bit from the Qanon Anonymous episode about the Obama produced movie Leave the World Behind. Julian says something like "you get out of the theater and you're somehow 10 years older and not just you but the whole world has lost a decade of its time"

It's been a thing thats been roiling in the dark corners of the Warsaw pact states only to emerge and rear its fascist head after the great disaster of '91

Simple response: "without linking wikipedia, please define fascism"

Hard Mode: no dictionary.com either.

These are the same people who think "dictatorship of the proletariat" is automatically bad because it has the word 'dictator' in it.

And then they say shit like "by definition."
