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

I know a Pole who solemnly marks the day Molotov-Ribbentrop was signed as the darkest day in Polish history because that was the day the Soviets invaded. They also legitimately believe the Soviets were so bad that they only consider the end of WW2 to be the day the Soviets left in the 80s or whenever it was.

There are few people as absolutely unhinged in their hatred of Russians than Poles.

It's so bizarre. The Soviets are very literally the primary reason a Polish ethnicity still exists. The Nazis would have exterminated them. And preventing that is the greatest crime in human history according to fascists in Poland.
