internet weirdo invents new irreconcilable political position, demands people yell at them
tale as old as time
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

Many Such Cases!
this is perfect. I was scrolling wondering what to even say about this. Glad you nailed it and saved me from whatever i was going to put together
The liberals reading this with a expression feel exactly the same way as I do whenever I see lgbt people supporting capitalism.
Okay, hear me out - rainbow imperialism
this reminds me of a few days ago where i saw a post where someone put their oc with a trans black sun and said "there's like no trans fash art so i made my own" like wow i wonder why
what do you mean people whose entire political ideology is based on being bigoted reactionary shitheads don't have trans art
It exists, but it's all hentai.
Trans Ernst Rohm.
🇷🇺 versus 🇺🇦 is the modern peak of
I could almost admire it if this guy was trying to piss off literally everyone, but i feel this isn't that deliberate
Do rainbow-washing Azov next
How long do you think before some lib unironically posts a rainbow black sun?
Plain and simple
You don't have to agree with Russia's domestic policies to be in favor of their victory on the geopolitical stage against NATO. Ain't nothing wrong with the image in the OP. Z
Then just post a Z instead of putting it on a trans flag when they just made trans care illegal. Just as cringe, or possibly marginally more cringe, as making a trans American flag
This makes as much sense as the pride/Ukraine flags I've seen some internet idiots bandy 'round (zero).
Both sides in this war are queerphobic states and you aren't gonna be able to reconcile that with queer identity.
and are both transphobic hellholes, along with
It's a real shame, I wonder what the Soviet Union would be like in relation to the LGBT community if it still existed today. AES countries like Vietnam and Cuba became friendly and supportive towards the lgbtq+ community after the 90s.
Idk seems like this is specifically in the context of the war because of the Z?
I mean so many trans people here also support Stalin, USSR, China, Laos, DPRK, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya etc. in their wars
Only difference between Russia and the other capitalist anti-queer countries is that Russia is the only one not yet flattened into the ground so it feels weird for people influenced by a culture that associates weakness with moral purity, strength with evil, and the underdog being a hero to support Russia in the same way
Charitably I'll assume the individual being dunked on has performed their own evaluation of "things" and determined that multi-polar imperialism is still better than US-dominated imperialism, because at least there's not an even more entrenched monopoly over the world.
It's not like a modern neoliberal market hellhole state like Russia is going to liberalize on marginalized communities any time soon. The economic gears only grind harder from here, with the hard stops created by climate change on the horizon, so it's unlikely at least.
We can't ignore history though. The context of modern Russia and other states is our world's history. The one where Western capitalists were unrelenting, reinvesting wealth stolen from revolutionary countries into their destruction. The one where "human rights concerns" were used only to justify sanctions against and invasions of countries already embattled for decades. It's one thing to pressure a nation on these issues, but it's a whole other thing to use people inside those societies to destabilize them and then weaponize capitalist owned press to browbeat those countries for "authoritarian" responses.
capitalist anti-queer countries
That's all of em, bud.
US legalized gay marriage tho*
*Don't look at what it's doing to trans people
US legalized gay marriage for now
It's still cringe on an aesthetic level. If you're going to combine the trans flag and the Z, at least do what they do with the ribbon of St. George like this only with the trans colors instead.
