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

Wow I've never seen that graph map before and it's fucking TELLING.

The 2010 map is telling too. The Donbass and Crimea voted for Yanukovych by 70, 80, even 90 percent. This is the president who’s coup in 2014 sparked the separatists.

You'll also notice that the 90% zone corresponds almost exactly to the territory controlled by separatists pre-2022

I mean it's something that quite a few ukrainians that have fled already told me, they literally voted in Zelensky because he was supposed to be the guy calming everything down, the vote for peace and look how that turned out.
