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

its kinda dumber than that. Most of the sterotype of nazism being this ultra-militarist spartan state is more pop culture depicting their war against the soviets. nazi germany was much less mobilized than most of he other participants in WW2 until gobbel's famous "total war" speech because the nazi government depended on the loyalty of mega corporations for it's support base and designed their doctrine of blizkrieg as a way of deploying the fewest military resources possible for the shortest period of time so all of those conscripts could go back to working in the factory making wiener sniztzel

look at any research on nazi war production and while its easy to use it as a way of demonstrating the superiority of the soviet system to nazism, the truth is that basically every industrialized country was able to top germany in war production because nazi germany was just five slave owning megacorps in a top hat.
