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

When you put up such a facade as a person that you cannot imagine anyone else having principles of any sort save those of convenience

Every accusation is projection.

The accusations that post-cold war communists only care about brown people because it's "fashionable" is a deafening insight in to the liberal's mind.

Am I supposed to know who this person is?

It's so bizarre, as I look through Lipman's Wikipedia page, I see a whole bunch of shit about acting and some notes about how she writes is an editorial adviser for Jewish Resistance magazine. However, I don't see anything that makes her knowledgeable about fascism.

In April 2018, Lipman criticised then-current Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn for his poor handling of antisemitism in the Labour Party and the party's reputed failure to address the issue. Lipman attended a protest outside the Labour Party head office and said she attended the protest "as a disenfranchised socialist". She identified with a placard reading "Corbyn made me a Tory".[53][54][55]

In a January 2015 interview on LBC Radio, Lipman said she was considering emigrating to the United States or Israel in response to perceived increased antisemitism in the UK.[51][52]

Israel benefiting from antisemitism

[–] zed_proclaimer@hexbear.net 15 points 7 months ago

That 'anti-semitism' was Corbyn being pro-Palestine

[–] Omgboom@lemmy.zip 31 points 7 months ago

I would love to hear what she thinks the word fascism means

[–] yuli@hexbear.net 24 points 7 months ago

when the protests are in front of israeli embassies or there are a handful of counter protesters, then yes, they are close to fascism.

[–] FourteenEyes@hexbear.net 17 points 7 months ago

What she means is that it's not actual fascism, which she prefers

is not fashionable in the world of wokeism and diversity to admire [Israel]

Wokeism stays winning

She said she wished that Israel was “granted a level playing field”, adding: “I want them judged in the same way as other countries."

Deeply unserious

[–] Hestia@hexbear.net 15 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Nazis were fascists. Nazis hated the Jews.

Israel is a Jewish state. Criticizing it means you hate the jews.

thus, if you criticize Isreal, you are a fascist.

[–] ElChapoDeChapo@hexbear.net 19 points 7 months ago

German logic

[–] 420stalin69@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

The problem with the Nazi’s is that they only supported a single ethnostate. A critical lack of consistency.

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 15 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Accuse your opponent that which you are guilty of. #JustNaziThings

[–] volcel_olive_oil@hexbear.net 13 points 7 months ago

fashionable has the word "fash" embedded into it; ergo, fashionable actions are fascist - checkmate lefties

Well we gotta know what the host of Celebrity Gogglebox thinks about fascism.
