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 hitting Dr. Doom crying about 9/11 levels of bullshit
Lmao, that was the first thing I thought of when I saw this.
I still have my issue of X-Factor where Juggernaut and Black Tom Cassidy blow up the World Trade Center and Juggernaut just has this big one page splash panel where he's cackling like a dad who just saw his son hit his first home run in Little League

Isn't Disney notoriously litigious? Never thought I'd say this, but I hope Disney sues them.
Given how fanatical they are about PR, they probably don't want to deal with the inevitable accusations of antisemitism such litigation would cause.
Yeah it'd be an unstoppable force encountering an immovable object
I would be very conflicted if JK Rowling were the one who stepped up and sued Israel over this shit.
I wish them both a long expensive legal battle over it 
Realistically, the worst she'll do is write a shitty book about an IP thief named "Israel Zionstein".
Realistically, the worst she'll do is write a shitty book about an IP thief named ~~"Israel Zionstein".~~ Jewy McGobbaum
Finally getting her revenge on her editor who wouldn't let her give a gringots goblin that name.

This is so embarrassing lol. I though Ukraine had captured the title of most reddit country but looks like Israel is giving them a run for their money
They're partners in the 
cinematic universe
Don’t forget the Taiwan Easter egg cameo
I still can't believe that happened. Didn't they even make cardboard panzers or something insane like that?

Imagine the one general calling up the marketing contractors while all the cooler generals get to call in airstrikes.
90 percent sure that Jigsaw would support Hamas though. Like doesn't he torture people for being selfish pieces of shit that ruin other people's lives? Even if everything bad Israel said about Hamas was true, Jigsaw would still fully support it on ideological grounds
Jigsaw has imprisoned and tortured people for absolutely trivial things.
I'd go so far ad to say he's pretty bad guy
But also he kills the president of an insurance company, kills a group of corrupt bureaucrats and landlords, every cop is portrayed as dumb and corrupt then they get killed.
The movies can’t decide whether individuals or systems are bad

This is such stupid shit. All feelings no analysis
They are probably aiming at children. Someone who is 10 now will be 20 in 10 years and already primed propagandised to support the next massacre. Can't think of any other reason for something so ridiculous.

They really couldn't think of anyone more evil than Disney characters for their propaganda?
Edit: Also isn't it a bad look anyway when Voldemort, Scar, Jigsaw, and Cruella are on your side? That entire campaign looks so clumsy.
I mean it's not like they can claim Hamas are worse than irl villains - could you imagine the reaction if they had Hitler looking at the news in horror?

What a way to spit on the graves of even the Israelis they are supposedly advocating for with this tacky shit.
I'm pretty sure most of these characters have tried to kill children
And the only one that doesn't has some weird puppy-skinning fetish
I don't think Jigsaw ever targeted kids. I do remember one kid being involved in Jigsaw's "games" but not in a way that put him in any danger.
Nah he repeatedly puts kids in danger as a means to motivate adult subjects. In Saw, Jigsaw forced Zep to tie up Gordon’s wife and child and threatened to kill them if Gordon failed his test. In Saw II, which is what I think you’re referencing, it’s true Jigsaw intended for Eric’s son, who was placed into the game, to survive, but not putting him in any danger is a stretch considering the door trap at the beginning which he could just as easily have fell for and the fact that he could have been killed by Xavier. Saw III has the clearest case proving this wrong where it’s revealed at the end of the movie that Jeff’s daughter was kidnapped by Jigsaw and hidden in a room running out of air, with Jeff having to win another “game” to save her.

What the actual fuck
okay but Scar is actually cool and good tho
if you haven't seen lion king in a long time, rewatching as an adult it's legit the story of a proletariat uprising told from the perspective of the bourgeoisie. It can also be argued as same for the feudal structure/divine right of kings.
Everyone has their place. The rich and privileged lead while everyone else lines down below them. If this is ever threatened, the world will literally wear down into wasteland hellscape. See the pride lands before and after the "natural order" is disrupted (Mufasa/Simba v. Scar/Hyena's rule).
I remember making an incredibly long and deranged post about my interpretation of The Lion King. But the gist is that The Lion King is a royal chronicle that heavily pushed a Simbaist line when Scar should've been king under the then Pride Rock traditional line of succession through agnatic seniority instead of male-exclusive primogeniture, which was forcefully imposed by the Simbaists when Scar was overthrown. Some points:
-
Mufasa wasn't actually killed by Scar. He was killed in a peasant revolt led by wildebeest peasants. Even the Simbaist distortion of truth called The Lion King admits this since Mufasa ultimately dies at the ~~hands~~ hooves of the wildebeest, not Scar.
-
Scar's supporters being exclusively hyenas is just a way for Simbaists to tar Scar for only having support from a marginalized community who were forced to live in squalid ghettos under the Mufasa regime. In fact, Scar had support among multiple sections of Pride Rock society such as the above mentioned wildebeest who killed Mufasa. Scar emancipated the hyenas, and the vindictive backlash of hyenas such as numerous Simbaists-led pogroms is reflected in The Lion King.
-
Pride Rock suffering from a drought when Scar was king is just transparent "Pride Rock had a drought because Scar didn't receive the Mandate of Heaven to rule Pride Rock." By all accounts, rain levels were slightly higher under Scar than the previous Mufasa and subsequent Simba regimes. But more importantly, Scar's reforms such as cutbacks on lavish leonic displays of gluttony allowed the beast peasantry much needed respite.
-
Scar wasn't a tyrant. If anything, most animals in Pride Rock saw Scar as a moderate and lesser evil who was willing to bring about much-needed reforms for the sake of kingdom stability. Meanwhile, the Mufasa and Simba regimes both uphold leonic supremacy expressed through a harsh caste system where lower castes needed to know their place in the so-called "Circle of Life."
All this is to say The Lion King is Simbaist propaganda and Simba is a tyrant who must be overthrown.
Down with the tyrant Simba!
Down with the Simba regime!
Down with Simbaism!
Down with leonic supremacy!
Down with the Circle of Life!
Long live Pride Rock!
All power to the hooves and horns!

I went to the mentioned website and it is really weak on the evidence front. There is a supposed picture of a murdered toddler but there is only blood spatter and no dead toddler (thankfully). There is also a very cool footage of Hamas paragliding into the rave on stolen land. CW for blood, gore and violence for the website though so watch out for that if you decide to follow the link.
This is the original creator by the way, @israel stole the Voldemort one lmao

I saw just the saw one and I was like"what the hell is this propaganda even trying to say" lmao
If I was greatly morally outraged about a series of killings my first thought wouldn't be to make disney themed art on the subject
kind of a weird reaction tbh
Its kind of funny how these memse reinforce how the subjects of their propaganda are simply viewing it through a screen and aren't actually involved in the same world as what they see
