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

How tragic that nations are not people and cannot learn lessons or feel guilt. Shit hasn't changed enough since WW2 for them to act differently. You can't finger-wag at the country that did the bad thing and then keep all the same incentives while neglecting all the same contradictions that drove the adoption of fascism in the first place if you want something different

No fundamental change was made from that which precipitated the rise of the nazis, nothing will stop it from precipitating more, the underlying systems must be destroyed

We love to sow don't we folks, we love the sowing (not so much the reaping)
