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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
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
Dude just loves riling himself up into a frenzy, doesn’t he? I guess he was mad that Hasan was going to interview Obama, which never even happened, and now he thinks Hasan is a “genocide supporter” because a random YouTube clip he came across that said “Hasan supports Kamala’s policies”, which he never even watched and was most likely just clipped. Hasan isn’t perfect, but fuck, you think at least him going to the DNC as a journalist would be considered fair from BE. Wild.
It's not great, especially materially, but narrative-wise things look better than when I was a kid in the 90's: the USSR had fallen, and everyone agreed communism had failed. You couldn't even say the word "socialist" let alone "communist" when I was younger, let alone anyone admit they were one. I think there's just been a liberal backlash to these changes as they try to reconstitute control and power of the narrative, but there's been progress.
The main problem as I see it is just we're not organizing fast enough for the problems capitalism are causing, like climate change, and also foreign policy is still dog shit among most progressives. Also, I worry that this revolutionary atmosphere happened in the 60's too and was dismantled by the police state, so I'm hoping we learned some lessons from that time somehow.
Wonder if that has anything to do with kids sitting inside watching a guy be "radical" on their behalf and feeling like they've done something?
Oh you mean like BE? Who I am fairly certain hasnver done any on the ground praxis in his life.
nobody said he had, you're tilting at windmills here
