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

Also, yeah, John Bachtell was ousted from leadership due to stuff like this.
We kinda hate him in the CPUSA, though I know a friend that likes him personally and knows him.
But yeah, I'm glad that Joe Sims replaced 'em.
Interesting. I've met him before. He is a nice guy. I haven't learned anything about Joe Sims yet. If you've got the time, could you post a link to any writing by him, or a video that you think is good?
I enjoyed the writing he did where he lays out his opinions on the dictatorship of the proletariat, Marxism-Leninism, and his opinion on Soviet legality.
I would like to check that out.
Remember the last time I've posted about CPUSA in one of the megas? if not then here's something from there
As I mentioned I enjoyed the part where he says soviet justice is more evil than sharia law
This is barely different than talking about communism with my boomer dad. If he doesn't already know what you're talking about he just assumes whatever you said is completely insane. In my dad's defense, he's never read anything about communism. I'm gonna hold Sims to a higher standard.
Edit: I thought you were serious when you said you liked his writing. Good god.
I'd rather be caught naked in times square than try and reconciliate my beliefs with those held by that bidencrat and his cronies
Side note, I just remembered we've actually had a similar conversation about these folks like two years back, where you mentioned meeting Mr. and Ms. Bachtell for lunch. You even cracked a joke about being a big cheese in the revisionist world because of it lmao
Lol. I remember that conversation. I'm reaching Kruschev levels of revisionism now.

Wait, are you talking about John Bachtell?
'Cause I like Joe Sims and Rosanna Cambron compared to him; in fact, I really like Joe Sims especially.
This is one of my favorite pieces my him.
But I've heard his other talks weekly, though never saved them, but this one set an impression with me during the meet with the CPC.
I did like that. I think it's cool that CPUSA is engaging with Chinese communists despite the political environment here. He might be a little optimistic about the existence of a broad antifascist alliance that includes both CPUSA and the democratic party. I still forsee a plea to vote for dems.
I, myself, do not on that last part.
And we do run our own candidates.
