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

Hold on, reading through it It looked like it was anti China and then they say some shit about the founding father of the country being born in China and some Chinese national hero being born in the Philippines? Are they pro-or anti-china ?

Probably one of those crypto-history things where they’ve invented a narrative that China was really a Filipino creation

"Marxism-Leninism-Mao Zedong thought"

Ehh, they're supposed to be ostensibly "Maoist," at least in the Gonzaloite sense.

But, I mean, more power to them; if they're fighting for a better world, so be it.

Bangsamoro is Muslium autonomous region of the Philippines.

Mi Ultimo Audios was made by a Filipino propagandist (?) Before he was executed in 1896. He refers to colonized (by the Spanish) Philipenes as the Lost Eden. The selective lines (why?) Are basicaly nationalist fever. What the hell China has to do with it shrug-outta-hecks.

Maybe just to side with thier quasi colonizer amerikkka that using Philippines as a military base is a stepping stone to bulkanizing mainland China's resources.

After it was annexed by the United States as a result of the Spanish–American War, the Philippines was perceived as a community of "barbarians" incapable of self-government. U.S. Representative Henry A. Cooper, lobbying for management of Philippine affairs, recited the poem before the United States Congress. Realising the nobility of the piece's author, his fellow congressmen enacted the Philippine Bill of 1902 enabling self-government (later known as the Philippine Organic Act of 1902), despite the fact that the 1882 Chinese Exclusion Act was still in effect and African Americans had yet to be granted equal rights as US citizens. It created the Philippine Assembly, appointed two Filipino delegates to the American Congress, extended the US Bill of Rights to Filipinos, and laid the foundation for an autonomous government. The colony was on its way to independence. Full autonomy would not be granted until 4 July 1946 by the Treaty of Manila.

Indonesian nationalism

The poem was translated into Indonesian by Rosihan Anwar and was recited by Indonesian soldiers before going into battle during their struggle for independence
