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

"Navalny was actually just a really cool, xenophobic, ultra-nationalist guy. Nothing like that despicable, xenophobic, ultra-nationalist Trump πŸ˜‡"

showing him in a casket is really telling

And they say humans can't compete with AI-generated content

[–] dannoffs@hexbear.net 78 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Praise for Navalny is a good way to tell someone knows literally nothing about Russia other than "Putin bad"

[–] GladimirLenin@hexbear.net 58 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Lets be honest, liberals would absolutely be onboard with his "exterminate muslims" policy.

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 38 points 8 months ago

They are onboard and doing it right now. Why do people here still talk in hypotheticals? American empire has been murdering millions of Muslims and is actively genociding them

If only Hitler had stuck to killing communists and the Slavs, he would have been crowned as the greatest anti-communist hero in the Western world.

β€œYes, Hitler was brutal, and perhaps excessive, but in the end he succeeded in stopping the invasion of the Mongol horde and their pernicious ideas from the East”

Yup I'd love to ask this person what nevalneys political beliefs were.

But of course this is liberals were dealing with he's a hero for being not putin the same way Biden is abhero for being not Trump.

Surely this is a bit right? He's in a coffin because they're making fun of him, right?

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 44 points 8 months ago

The coffin is because the artist didn't even bother to look up what he looked like

label your axis god fucking dammit meow-tableflip

[–] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 39 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They're following the r/dataisbeautiful house style.

[–] Magician@hexbear.net 28 points 8 months ago

The freeform jazz of statistical brainworms

it's the Hitler-Jesus axis

[–] robinn_IV@hexbear.net 43 points 8 months ago (1 children)

At least the dude who invented frisbee didn't put Japanese Americans in concentration camps.

[–] axont@hexbear.net 41 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Liberals finally have their own Rosa Luxemburg I guess

What do liberals think Navalny even did except die

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 39 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Watched Rick and Morty as he flew to his doom

[–] Mardoniush@hexbear.net 21 points 8 months ago

Rosa at least actually did shit, even if she never got a chance to lead and fuck up.

[–] LaBellaLotta@hexbear.net 37 points 8 months ago

No mention of Lincoln because liberals can’t even pretend not to sympathize with slave owners anymore

[–] SoyViking@hexbear.net 29 points 8 months ago

These political compasses keeps getting weirder and weirder

[–] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 28 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

These dipshits love nothing better than mindlessly lionizing rivals of their most hated opponents, regardless of who they are

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 23 points 8 months ago

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend" but it's their actual foundational belief.

[–] oscardejarjayes@hexbear.net 26 points 8 months ago

This is satire.

Source: my sanity requires this to be satire or else I'll take a fatal amount of psychic damage.

[–] oscardejarjayes@hexbear.net 20 points 8 months ago

No one person invented the frisbee, the main inventor guy invented it with is at the time girlfriend, eventually wife. It was a partnership at Wham-O that decided on the name "frisbee". co-invented I feel would be a more proper term. But this is just pedantry.

[–] chungusamonugs@hexbear.net 18 points 8 months ago

I'm a nobody and I've met other nobodies that have talked about brutality and violence that would make Hitler blush. What the actual fuck fairy land dies this person live in?

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 18 points 8 months ago (1 children)

at first I thought this was satire on libs, but then I check yts (movie torrents) and the movies listed is Navalny 2022, wtf they actually made a movie on him?!

source: the Internet

Jesus Christ I can't

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 19 points 8 months ago

Honestly saying "source: reddit" makes the whole thing accurate.

But it would be like citing "the big book of ideas that are dumb as fuck" unironically

[–] neroiscariot@hexbear.net 18 points 8 months ago

Did they draw Putin with devil horns or orc ears I can't tell?

[–] Cromalin@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago

ok admittedly this is funny as fuck. what is this guy talking about?

[–] QueerCommie@hexbear.net 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Too dumb to be real, too unfunny to be satire.

Jesus belongs either off the chart, or on the other end. He's either an entirely fictional character, or was just another delusional human that formed a cult.

[–] robinn_IV@hexbear.net 32 points 8 months ago

I wouldn't talk about "belonging" on the chart considering how nonsensical everything else is. As far as Jesus goes, he's no more fictional than the creator's idea of Putin and FDR.

[–] blakeus12@hexbear.net 11 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (7 children)

he isn't a fictional character, he was a real person. whether or not he was the son of god is dependent on what you believe, but jesus existed

edit: just read your comment again im a fuckin idiot my bad
