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

Because they aren't humans with the same feelings about how their land was stolen and their peoples massacred. Get the fuck out of Palestine.

If I valued my life I would simply not join a genocidal settler-colonial project.

Imagine knowing a region is notorious for its violence and constant military attacks everywhere because of settlers, and deciding to settle your family over there or start one there. Not out of desperation or necessity, but because the government offers to pay all your expenses to fly over and steal someone’s house. It’s selfish on so many levels.

And no, it isn’t victim blaming because you can’t fly thousands of miles to hit someone while they’re sleeping and cry when they come back with a crew.

Being systematically denied basic human rights, clean water, food, and medical treatment

I don't want to think of Hilter in Heaven, one side of my family is Jewish, I have ancestors that died under his command, my partner is Jewish and she also lost ancestors under his command. Hitler is one of the most vile people to ever exist, but if you truly believe the bible then you have to accept that he had a chance to repent and that he may have taken that. Given his morals in life I doubt he chose to, but he had the opportunity to and you cannot know if he took that or not. Unless you have some magical list that shows he's not there. You either have to accept that Hitler could be in heaven or you have to accept that you don't actually believe in the repentance and salvation that Jesus offers. Those are your choices.

This chud claimed to have ancestors that were nazis and ancestors that were killed by nazis and is insisting on rules lawyering Hitler's eligibility for heaven under a technicality.

It's darkly funny to me that a particular configuration of evangelist theology makes it possible for Hitler to repent at the last moment and be in Heaven forever, while every Jew he killed burns in Hell for not accepting Christ.

Feel like this guy's close

I was listening to a true crime podcast and someone did a bit as Jeffery Dahmer repenting as he’s beaten to death and is greeted into heaven by god alongside his victims lol

Ask them whether this would happen if Putin repented (an Orthodox Christian) and suddenly their version of God starts making excuses

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

Well Putler can’t repent because orthodox Christianity is an FSB op therefore not a realm sect

These people, in their fear for their loved ones, are going to cheer on other people's loved ones being slaughtered in large numbers.

I'm nervous about all the Palestinians that are going to predictably be detained, maimed, bombed, and assassinated in typical Israeli disproportionate bloodthirsty vengeance.
