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

no way is that going to happen after the war everyone is going to be scrambling to loot ukraine to get back the money they lent them

Oh absolutely, I'm certain of this. That's why it would shake my worldview if that didn't happen and instead the US massively invested in the Ukrainian people.

if it helps I think people might loose money trying to loot the country. If they try and treat it like the eastern european goldrush in the 90's they will likely find the rewards far more meagre than expected. In the 90's there was tons of soviet infrastructure that could be got for a litteral steal now everything worth having is gone or destroyed in the war

it's more India in 1940 than india when it had kings who couldn't fight a war to save their lives and palaces of easily portable gold

Going to be? It's already being carved up
