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

MODERATORS
I don't get how "we gotta bomb a dead guy whose political ideas we've beaten 30 years ago" is supposed to appeal to anyone
because the ideas themselves weren't defeated. only a single physical manifestation of them (the USSR).
because the cruelty is the point
as a side note. I wanna say that real Leninheads know that Lenin didn't want to be embalmed anyway. so destroying his mausoleum would actually be a win for him.
I just don't get the reverse pyrrhic victory here where you've won everything, wholesale, no downsides for you and also can't ever admit it.
Like bomb Ho-Chi-Minhs grave or something at least Vietnams still communist
That reminds me. Fred Hampton's grave regularly gets shot up by cracker supremacists
Still bitter about the defeat in 1945. Nazism was rebranded as NATO after that, but the goals and the appeals remain the same for their supporters.
