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 just don't think all this blood is worth it like you think it is. I think the broader geopolitical implications of this war ending one way or another are not more or less likely to result in communist revolution anywhere. In that sense I do not support either side, but take a stance similar to the Zapatistas which I shared last night, which is that first and foremost the war should end and as many lives as possible should be saved.
Do you feel as though, after a war this nasty, that the treatment of ethnic Ukrainians in an annexed eastern Ukraine will be better than what ethnic Russians were dealing with under the post-coup government? How can you be so certain you're not exchanging one ethnic cleansing with another? Especially when one of Russia's war goals is to "cleanse" Ukraine of Nazis, anyway. Do you trust a capitalist government to make that call? Would you trust the US government if it said it was going to kill all the American Nazis?
I do not share your certainty.
Genuinely go fuck yourself.
Genuinely explain to me how you or anyone can be certain about the future treatment of a conquered people by a regime not known for its delicacy?
