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

Bernie and Parenti used to be friends. And then America invaded yugoslavia and Bernie showed where his loyalties lied.
Top ten anime betrayals. That must have hurt.

I believe he also personally wrote about it in Against Empire. I know I read that story from his POV in one of his books.
You are right that he wrote about it, but it was in his book To Kill A Nation, and not Against Empire. Here is the direct quote from the book:
Just searched through my copy of both Against Empire and To Kill A Nation to make sure ![party-parenti](https://www.hexbear.net/pictrs/image/bc03c0e5-b65b-4c7d-be95-23454c0e6c84.png "emoji party-parenti")
Maybe it was Inventing Reality then? Fuck, I dunno, I know he talked about his friendship with Bernie for maybe a paragraph or two, not just that blurb.
This is really bothering me now, I'll find it soon!
