a country can be both an oppressive autocracy and have socially progressive policies

"Please help, my country is oppressing me into treating inferior people as equals!"

We don't even have to go there, just looking at the name, it seems to rank how "free" the market is, because that's all that matters to them libs. Democracy is when invisible hands or something.

Democracy is when you can buy and sell things but especially fun little treats and goodies and yum yums so tasty I LOVE FREEDOM

Measuring how free the market is while imposing massive sanctions on the country very cool

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
