the_dunk_tank
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

Wouldn’t it be fair to actually get the quote right.
I’ve read the work of your theorists here and not one has mentioned a civilization that never made the kinds of disgusting, vile, and despicable mistakes that the US made/makes.
If they have, sorry I missed that, so please enlighten me.
Also — get the quote right?
What tf are you talking about? The only thing I quoted you on I did so with a screenshot. What did I quote wrong according to you? Do you think I went and edited the image file or something? lol If you're talking about the person I replied to, who did make use of quotation marks in their comment, it was clear to everyone that they were not directly quoting you. They were demonstrating a sentiment, one that most here can recognize as common among fascists, a sentiment that you also leaned heavily on, even if you didn't outright say it. You're just picking some little thing to be mad about like "you mis-quoted me!!" because the content of CyborgMarx's comment was spot on and you just aren't capable of countering it.
You've read the "theorists" "here"? Do you think I'm talking about other commenters when I refer to theory? lol. No, I doubt you've read any theory. Marx and Engels? Lenin? Or maybe more directly relevant to this, Gramsci? Debord? Fanon?
I'll defer to the other people who commented and answered this, making clear to everyone that you don't know wtf you're even talking about.
Well, they did, so I hope you consider yourself enlightened now.
What, you want I should get a higher resolution screenshot next time? lol
Loved that exhaustive list of just societies. Nice. You win.
What, you didn't like the fact that others already schooled you on that topic, and you wanted me to hold your hand through that too? No, I think it's actually that you're embarrassed that you have exactly zilch to say of any consequence in response to everything else in my comment. Whatever the case, I'm happy to leave it as-is, since anyone who can read beyond a grade-2 level will recognize your cringe for what it is. You can't even fall back on that bullshit you made up about being misquoted, since even that was an obvious lie. 🙄
Seriously — this thread went sideways. It started when someone decided to redefine the word murderer as America. As ridiculous a claim as possible, unless of course you have zero understanding of what America is.
I have conceded from the emergence of the thread that America has committed genocide.
Sadly, I’ll also bring up that your use of contemporary technology and media owes so much to American ingenuity and innovation that you might reconsider your attachment to it. Just sayin’.
I also remember you clutching after your pearls when I mentioned that other states have engaged in brutal, despicable acts of genicidal oppression. Oh — but you seem to want to make the US exceptional here when sadly it isn’t.
