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

Linky idk if anyone has posted this already but omfg what am I even reading

These SSettlers can't help themselves, read this shite i-cant, in a Western press that calls Xi the return of Mao this fucking SSettler says he's a Netanyahu. This is the most deeply unserious crap I've ever read, what a joke. Also, how does this person think China "rose" to well into global power (not a damn empire)? It isn't because of capitalism, that's for damn sure.

Oh my fucking god picard, depressed about life in Isn'trael? Maybe stop supporting it you fucking ghoul.

what-the-hell Holy fucking shit I hope this partner leaves them, he doesn't even respect her. Claiming Westerners have some kind of Ubermensch ability for self-actualization? Incredible. Every Israeli like this, aren't they?

With this second person, you assume this story is just about hair clips or whatever then they just can't help themselves. What a piece of shit (CW: Islamophobia) stalin-gun-1 stalin-gun-2

ive been showing my gf Little China Everywhere videos and shes like holy shit wow thats what china is like?

her coworker was shit talking china with a bunch of nonsense talking points and she came home telling me how dumb he sounded lol

I told her about the supposed genocide in Xinjiang and we watched the videos filmed in Xinjiang followed by footage in Gaza and she knows where the real genocide is happening

she laughed really hard when I said "since when does USA care about Muslims or Chinese people? why would USA care so much about Chinese Muslims?"

shes from a native reservation and I described Xinjiang and Tibet as the closest China has to reservations and it blew her mentalities on how much better it was there than how she grew up and how her dad still lives

the last screenshot is something else. usually they leave racism that blatant in Hebrew

[–] TraschcanOfIdeology@hexbear.net 30 points 1 month ago

This is word-by-word 19th century European imperial logic. Even the more ideologically committed current-day lmayo don't use this language anymore because they know it's bad optics.

Sounds like it's them who haven't matured at all in the last 100 years.

I think it's cool: a country that grew from nothing into a vast empire

Huh?????

It looked to me like America 200 years ago

Fucking what????!!

I wrote papers about China when I was still in primary school

Papers?? I assume he means something like 'essays', but from the rest of the interview I can easily imagine this person being arrogant enough to call a three-paragraph writing exercise he did when he was nine a "paper".

Either way, his understanding clearly has not advanced since then. I've never seen someone (who wasn't a paid propagandist) be so wrong, so succinctly about a country, especially one they supposedly lived in. This guy is a fucking idiot.

My present Chinese partner is my age, but her level of self-awareness is like that of a little girl. It's unbelievable. They desperately need our light. The woman who was privileged to marry me received it and it opened her head.

this is fucking gross

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

And he's cool with being in a relationship like that, what a fucking creep. The "Israeli" urge to keep a captive population around to do your petty labor while you tell yourself you're elevating them from savage foreignese squalor is really something. Someone kill this man.

[–] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Present Chinese partner

Also it sure sounds like he's treating women like phones. "Oh damn, this one's developed a glitch (self-esteem). Guess it's time for a replacement."

"already blessed this person with my civilized white presence (and peen), time to move on to the next fortunate improvement subject"

[–] HoiPolloi@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

I just can imagine being with someone that arrogant, how could you even stand talking to someone like that?

[–] SuperNovaCouchGuy2@hexbear.net 29 points 1 month ago

"MUH CHINISE R CHILDREN WITH NO SELF AWARENESS AND DONT QUESTION SOCIAL RULES DURRRR"

joins the IDF (israeli diaper force) when u can just relax on the state's dime in some AC room for 3 months instead

i-cant

"the added value which we have as Jews in the world"

"They desperately need our light."

"the woman who was privileged to marry me"

"There are no Muslims here either"

BadEmpanada is vindicated yet again. This is fascist jewish supremacism, he needs to be deported from china immediately because he is human trash, a danger to everyone around him.
