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

This is about the word habibi lol. Basically like malding over a "who's invited to the cookout" tier list.

free-palestine

Sabara funds the IOF directly.

As a bonus, this is an example of the type of things this islamphobic loser has tweeted before.

Just letting everybody know that if you bully ethan (mainly on the h3h3 reddit or on the h3snark reddit) he WILL see it and it WILL contribute to his mental breakdown

The post about his video calling for the deplatforming of streamers like her and Hasan mentioned some of this, but I thought his efforts to paint a Jewish's man actions on to the nearest arab women so he had a more acceptable target was vile enough to warrent its own post.

lol, the weaponising of all these terms “micro-aggression”, “inclusion”, all in service of settler colonial ethnic cleansing. I hate it here.

isn't the Sabra joke just that it's notoriously bad hummus? making it an anti-semitism thing is so obviously bad faith lol

[–] [email protected] 30 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago)

Pretty much this. As someone else said Its like a "puts rasins in the potato salad" bottom tier of a "whos invited to the cookout tier list." Ethan is spinning a knot of nonsense to pretend its antisemetic.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (2 children)

I know it’s super covenient to just buy it, but man, good hummus is stupid easy to make. Just grind chickpeas without anything else and you’ve pretty much made something 99% as good as sabra

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 weeks ago

Also, any other hummus is going to be better than sabra. It's really amazing how bad it is.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 4 weeks ago (2 children)

I made homemade once and I think it just opened my eyes to how processed and full of salt/sugar/whatever the store-bought stuff is. The homemade stuff tasted soooo different (and not as good to the lizard brain), but I would try it again.

Did you add some olive oil?

I think it's more that those in that tier break BDS or are oblivious to it, they love the IDF, that kind of thing. This is a meme/joke tier list so it's not completely serious, just saying the bottom tier are zionist or islamophobic.

I got called habibi by a guy coming out of the deli I was going into while I was wearing my keffiyah. Made my day tbh

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 weeks ago* (last edited 4 weeks ago) (3 children)

habibi

I still have no idea what that means, but I get called that when I pick up my order at the Palestinian kebab shop. I just assumed it meant "bro" or "buddy" or something. I always just respond with, "thanks, brother (or other pronoun, depending on who's got my heart attack wrap in a bag)".

[–] [email protected] 25 points 4 weeks ago

it means "my beloved", like "I love you bro"

[–] [email protected] 19 points 4 weeks ago

Yeah in my country it was coopted by the youth and its used to mean bro, brother (affectionate), my love, honey/darling, dude, etc.. something along those lines. Habibti is used for girls, but most use habibi for both gender.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 weeks ago

yes it means bro or buddy. In a different context it can means the liberals' sweetie or darling.

Basically like malding over a "who's invited to the cookout" tier list.

Pretty much, also imagine supporting a genocide (non-Zionist Jews are infinitely welcome) and then crying the ongoing victims aren't inviting you to hang out.... truly fragile colonizer mentality

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

::: spoiler This isnt really directed at you but just in general about the usage of the term non-zionist here

Nonzionism is not antizionism, just like nonracist doesnt mean antiracist. Nonzionist jews may not be actively pushing for genocide, but the nonzionists in my family are deeply apathetic to what is happening, and refuse to engage beyond condemnations of blatantly genocidal acts (when they havent been poisoned by propaganda). They will run defence for israel without realizing it, in the same way a nonracist may hold up systemic racism without actively commiting racist acts/speech. Those in my family who are nonzionists have no issue with israel existing as is, rather, they take issue with seeing genocide before them; They sit at a table with zionists just as comfortably as with antizionists.

Imo, antizionists should be welcome. Nonzionists make me nervous and frustrated and sad and deeply angry, as they help enable genocide.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 weeks ago

Good point, and I fully agree with you. I hadn't quite considered the difference when typing it, admittedly- but I'll try to specify "anti-Zionist" from now on.

I have no idea who Ethan Klein is, I thought he was a made up character for payday 2 or something.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh god, thanks for reminding me of that cringe

He's a Youtuber who got big reacting to other Youtube videos. Used to look a lot less washed up than he does these days.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago

Is it too late for me to enter the 2024 election on a platform of “throw every single reaction streamer into a bottomless pit”?

Ethan has always been obsessive and petty with people he considers his adversaries. I used to watch him when he made his callout videos on pranksters and yeah he would not let it go if they poked him enough.

He also tried to go after the Wall Street Journal to defend Pewdiepie’s good name and the WSJ politely told him he’s a dumbass and should fuck off.

This is about the word habibi lol. Basically like malding over a "who's invited to the cookout" tier list.

I would add that this tier list isn't about whether these people are good, or whether they are zionist. This is not a list of good to bad. I think the list is guessing whether people have experienced arab culture, but the people who make the list don't even try to be accurate. It's a silly and pointless list which isn't supposed to mean anything.

In the Arab category, you have Hasan Piker who is from Turkey, then you have his friend Austin Show. Then the 3rd guy in the Arab category is Nickmercs, who is one of the top call of duty streamers and massive transphobe and friend of Dr Disrespect. The 4th guy is Myth, one of the best ever Fortnite streamers and friend of Hasan. The sixth guy in the Arab category is Ishowspeed, who is a streamer who acts like a clown but also yells Free Palestine a lot.

xQc was put in the "arab coded" category, who is a massive chud and promoter of crypto gambling. Next to xQc is Kai Cenat, who was the #1 streamer on twitch for most of the year and attributed with creating the word "rizz", and doesn't ever talk about politics.

The first person in the "ask perms" category is Ludwig, who presents himself as like financially affluent guy but also converted his business into a workers cooperative. The 4th person in this category is Pokemane, known as the most famous woman video game streamer, who is an arab woman with citizenship in Morocco, but grew up in Canada.

The "thinks it's a slur" has Mizkif who is a edgelord gamer and Moist Critical who is one of those vocal fry drama youtube video essayists.

There's Ethan in the "Loves Sabra" category, but the second person in the "loves sabra" category is Mike From PA, who is the second largest self-proclaimed socialist news channel on twitch. I pulled up the video at this point and the people on stage are saying "let's put mike in the sabra category" and laughing. Mike shouts "I've never ate sabra in my life" from the audience and whole audience laughs. I watch Mike From PA talk about the news sometimes and Mike is definitely antizionist and he is someone who is hated by Ethan.

TLDR is that the list doesn't mean anything at all. It's not a list of zionists vs anti-zionists either. The list is completely incoherent. It was made as a joke, but it's sort of an inside joke that is only understood by one podcast community. Ethan is stupid for bringing up this list at all.

"because it stands as a beacon for human freedom"

"now go through this 2 hour armed checkpoint manned by your colonial occupiers in order to go to the grocery store, and submit to being groped and having your belongings rifled through and being verbally abused if not having your physical safety and life threatened. Then repeat this in a couple days for the same thing."

I don't understand them, living in their racist fantasies

Good catch, truly fabulous 💃

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 weeks ago

Such an obvious reaction

So he didn't know what does the tier list mean nor who made it. Accused an Arab woman of being anti-Semitic all just to prove that self-hating Jews are a thing??
