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

Idk who this guy is but he sounds like the new V****h but with less pedophilia
with less pedophilia
give it time, it always happens
He could be the head priest of the Vatican and still be less of a pedophile than :funny-clown-hammer:
Just the fact that he's promoting :funny-clown-hammer: is damning enough
First I heard of him was as a guest on Well There's Your Problem, where he dunked on the SovU for a bit and then started loudly complaining afterwards cause he was being bullied on Twitter over it.
So yeah, this is all tracking so far.
He had some good takes on how dumb shit Tesla is and more generally how Musk's projects are trash fires, but it seems Ceausescu got rooted in his brain as what communism is and that's that
I don't want to spend 40 minutes on this lol. I've gone in for 6 and it's already told people to use V*ush videos to debunk Prager U, gone on a tangent about modern "Stalinists", and quibbled about Ukraine being a US proxy without contending with what anyone claiming such a thing actually uses to justify it. It's just storytelling and no analysis from someone dropping "rationalist" dog whistles every two minutes.
It doesn’t have to make sense, just give a sense of confirmation to viewers that already sit in or near his ideological camp.
It feels like listening to a baby atheist trying to debunk Islam because they read 1/3 of a Dawkins book. What they lack in knowledge they make up for in the pretense of certainty.
I watched a little more and now he just quibbled about the difference between US funds and weapons "ending up" with Nazis vs the US funding Nazis, with the debunk being a hypothetical about Nazi Germany. He never contends with what the articles say nor the fact that the US has specifically targeted support to Nazi groups. Just moves on after the hypothetical. When calling it out, he basically did the :reddit-logo: fallacy citation thing too, lol.
I'm impressed that there are so many dum-dums out there who take this seriously.
with the debunk being a hypothetical about Nazi Germany.
What, like a hypothetical reality where we didn't put them all right back into power after they had done the holocaust? This fucking dog brain
Dogs have not smart brain, but that's cause like90% of their grey matter is dedicated to being eager to please. Dogs have better brain
I was that atheist, when I was 14. I did the thing where you keep learning stuff after that age.
I stopped after he was comparing Banderites to members of ISIS and how their politics have to be reactionary to defend themselves against invaders. It's just a repetition of what the State Departments wants you to think of these events.
EDIT: I skipped around the video at 31:17 and he's going like "WE HAD TO INTEGRATE THE AZOV BATTALION, UKRAINE DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE!!!!". Literally the same arguments used to justify Hitler. This is the brainrot that comes from 'realist' geopolitical analysis, no opinion from the masses.
Also cites radio free europe as a source to dismiss anti-Semitism attacks. It seems like we've forgotten that a big part of the Nazi ideology was also anti-slavic so it's simply not to say that "they cannot be nazi's because jews are in the azov battalion" (ignoring how modern day Israel resembles much of Nazi policies in trying to make a settler colonial state against Palestine).
