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

This reminds me of another post from there that was like "What if the US didn't manifest destiny?" and it was just a US that was two-thirds as big. Wow I wonder how they got that territory...
Without the racism
I'd sooner believe in dragons
I fail to see how this doesn't involve racism
You're implicitly describing an Afro-Futurist Soviet Union but if you follow this to its ultimate conclusion your weirabo friends won't let you in the club anymore.
Also very bizarre that you've decided to unify South Africa but leave off Angola, Madagascar, Zambia, and the Congo.
*no racism fr this time guys
If I were doing settler colonialism, I'd just simply do it without the racism. I am sure we could just rule the non-whites peacefully and respectfully if we ask them to submit nicely.
The whole point of Boers was the racism
Boers don't have a culture outside of racism
"without the racism"
countries called "FRENCH Madagascar"
this reminded me I'm annoyed at Victoria 3 because I was playing as Rwanda and united the area around lake victoria and was all set to start colonizing and beat the british to east africa BUTTTTT
I can colonize Tanganyika just fine, but north and east of me? Sorry sweaty, that's not your HOMELAND so the MALARIA THERE gives you 90% reduced colonization
it's so fucking goddamn stupid like the malaria on the other side of the lake is gonna be TOO MUCH unlike the malaria at home
idk if you guys noticed this but this guy is also a gamer, hes using a bunch of graphics from victoria 2
What if we all voted for Joe Biden and he was not Joe Biden, but more like LBJ and FDR?
The way his administration is being consumed by foreign entanglements that the base of his party hates is a LOT like LBJ actually
Shoot the Boer!
non-racist non-colonial white south africans would literally be like a town or neighborhood of a town on the cape, why would they feel the need to spread out and subjugate beyond organizing a provisioning station for passing ships?
