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

Very funny they have gonzalo on one side and a shining path spliter on the other

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Whats the other guy's name?

Good to know that the polar vortex(?) is a comrade

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Pretty sure that's Infrahaz or whatever the hell the one dude is called. Would be much happier if it was a polar vortex.

Edit: Infrared... Haz is just one of the dudes that's a part of it I guess? Don't really know, don't really care.

What even... Also if memory serves top right is the guy who's known for baby soup right?

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

I'm probably wrong and can't remember his name anyways.

Edit: did a quick reverse image search and it is in fact the soup man.

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No you're right, it's Gonzalo

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol yay. Do I win anything?

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You get to press the big Do Communism button

[–] Anne_Teefa@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Hell yeah. Only if everybody gets to press it too though. Must be why it's so large.

[–] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unfortunately the Do Communism button was subject to Gonzalo's perspective on what communism means. Unfortunately it just makes all babies into soup because communism is when all the babies have been souped.

Another win for anti natalism I suppose

Fun suggestion, could we get an emoji with gonzalo on a can of Progresso? I suggest Progresso because Andy Warhol is the Campbell's boi soup

[–] Comp4@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I will now forever think of Gonzalo as "the soup man"

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

This seems confusing until you realise it's patsocs conforming to the lines already drawn by bourgeoise cultural identity politics.

They feel like reinforcers of the status quo (cultural identity politics) in an emerging new political consciousness.

Wtf is Malema and the EFF doing there with Putin, Xi, Mao and Deng lol, they have very little power currently. The ANC still runs the country. The EFF aren't even the official opposition.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago

Not heard of this guy before Malema. Can you tell me about him from a South African's perspective?

[–] WittyProfileName2@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It seems like an insult to Stalin to assume Dugin is anyway comparable to him.

Like, a reactionary grifter like Dugin would probably be the sort that big spoon man would've sent to break rocks in Siberia.

the... hawaiian flag?
