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 [email protected]

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

I don't believe the Argentinian results, unless shit changed A LOT since 10 years ago that I moved away.

i mean they did very recently consider switching to the US dollar, which means at least at a government standpoint, they trust the US economy over their own at that moment. They used to hate the US in the early 2000's but its more 50/50 i think nowadays.

They're have been addicted to the dollars for years, but every argentinean I knew hated Americans and the US government.

id imagine a certain generation hates the US mainly because of the US stance during the Falkland Wars, as its one of the major times where the US didn't enforce the monroe doctrine(when it typically would have). Of course as time gets farther from that time period that view kinda starts to mull off, sorta like younger generations in mainland asia's opinion of japan.
