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

He used to post here. Don't pay him any attention, he's just an online weirdo
Unfortunately I don't think this guy is just an online weirdo. He goes on RT. He goes on Chinese TV. He goes to Trump rallies and interviews people. His political tendencies are Larouchite and these quasi-communist reactionaries have existed in American politics for decades. He's a symptom of a larger problem, which is reactionary encirclement and distortion of revolutionary talking points.
We should especially heed this part. We should always remember that Fascist ideologues like Mussolini and Sorel used revolutionary sounding language to push for reinforcement of the capitalist power structure under the aegis of a militarized nation state.
and it's especially interesting that Mussolini was revealed to be on the payroll of British Intelligence during his rise to power. So Italian fascism seems to have been a deliberate British "psy op" to kill Italian Socialism in its cradle. Fascism at its core was bankrolled by Anglo-American capitalists and government officials until they needed to do an about face and "save the world" from the monster they had created by assisting the USSR.
Yup. The USA has been so right wing and propagandized in recent decades that people like him weren't even necessary, but I would expect more of this as neoliberalism breaks down.
:wack:
Særr?!
I corroborate that since I got to bully him personally
