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

What is the point they feel they are making with this post? Other than, "Look what decades of western freedoms have brought to the region!"?

I still don't think leftcoms are real. I figure we muist have made them up one night in the mega and people are occaisionally remembering the bit and posting "leftcom sightings" the way people in the pnw dig out their phones to show off their best bigfoot pictures.

It's just Western chauvinism. They're trying to make a point about how the "Houthis" are using child soldiers.

Me, not being a massive Islamophobe: Those kids look badass posing in a photo as soldiers with real guns.

Why do leftcoms cycle back to being western-chauvinists, for fuck's sake?

Remember when reddit was creaming their collective trousers over pictures of Ukrainian children with guns?

The Ukrainian girl sitting on the windowsill with a gun was the top post on reddit again literally this week lol

If liberals didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards

They really can't help themselves. I'm so happy Ukraine got invaded purely for the fact that it forced the mask of these people.
