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

libs are nothing if not inconsistent and solipsistic, so this checks out liberalism

Also the fact one of the largest pro dem subreddits is literally called whitepeopletwitter is just pure chefs-kiss

Fascism is when I don't like it.

pretty sure both are fascism

Fascism is when you fight fascism. We should definitely trust the CIA-controlled corporate press (Operation Mockingbird) when it describes Russia as fascist, even though the CIA (and its predecessor, the OSS) has been rescuing and funding Nazis around the world since at least 1945. I mean, it’s not as though the corporate press lied relentlessly about Iraq’s WMDs, with zero consequences for any of those involved? Trusting people who have repeatedly lied to my face is totally normal!

EDIT: did I just get whooshed, maybe you meant "there are so many Ukros wearing Dirlewanger Brigade patches that it's too hard to choose"

I have said this many times: if Hitler had only stuck to killing communists and Russians (the reason the imperialist powers gave him Czechoslovakia in the first place), he would have been remembered as the greatest Anti-Communist Hero of the century.

Who remembers the time Zelenskyy tweeted a photo of him speaking at a rally, and the soldier guarding him in front had an SS skull patch without any attempt of hiding it

stalin shouldn't have stopped at berlin

For some context, this is the video referenced in the meme. The video plays the song "Running up that hill" over a montage of Ron Desantis persecuting LGBT people in Florida and then displays a rotating black sun emblem on Ron's face for 10 seconds.

cw/ ron desantis video, anti-lgbt, anti-immigration
