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

I bet women love being compared to a genocidal ethnostate founded on stolen land.

Germany, Britain, France, and the US have all represented themselves as women at one point so maybe there is some link between personifying a country as a woman and being a murderous imperialist.

Modern China won its revolution in 1949.

Also Palau gained independence from the USA in 1962.

gonna be honest I didn't put that much thought into this shitpost. maybe "imperialist state" instead of just state would make it work better

whispers "are women settler colonialists"

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 year ago

de-rhetoric RHETORIC — Do you really need an argument for this one? Settler colonialism is bad.

de-empathy EMPATHY [Easy: Success] — You get sad about “losing” apartments that you didn’t own and weren’t stolen from you.

lt-dbyf-dubois YOU — What does this have to do with Israel?

de-encyclopedia ENCYCLOPEDIA [Medium: Failure] — Israel? Something about the Bible. That’s all you’ve got.

horrific-necktie HORRIFIC NECKTIE — I’ve heard that Israel has ladies! Let’s go there now, bratan! Or better yet, let’s check out some IDF propaganda. It’s always full of them.

de-rhetoric RHETORIC — But what if these ladies are doing settler colonialism? As I’ve said: bad.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So now criticizing Israel means you get accused of being both antisemitic and sexist?

woman is the israel of the world

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Some white upper class liberal women: "I cannot sympathise with the oppressed unless I am also oppressed. I must make this about me somehow."

Please don't take this the wrong way, women are oppressed and they hold up half the sky, there is no socialism without feminism, there is no communism without women's liberation.
This post is just made to mock one very specific type of person who grew up affluent, safe and relatively isolated from harm and illness, yet somehow acts as if they and Malala Yousafzai are one and the same, and that all other suffering in the world is secondary to their own, which has been immense, despite growin up in a mansion at the beach with two married parents, going to the Hamptons every year. One could call it Girlboss Feminism I guess.

never believed in what she suffered, constantly having motivations questioned

Several powerful figures/news outlets have tried to claim that Palestinian doctors couldn't be trusted to report deaths accurately because they were secretly terrorists.

Israel is more than a country, she is a world-historical idea, a heroine, light itself, etc.

Always asking for money, always ruining the boys good time, extremely horny on social media but only cares about McDonald’s irl. Behaving and dressing in ways that shame god. The subject of gross Indian dude attention. The subject of the “damn, you live like this” meme, did 9/11, toxic, hateful.

Hates brown people, is white but pretends to be indigenous for clout and a moral high ground. Nominally religious, just uses it as a weapon. Trivializes the Holocaust to make self-victimizing analogies. Uses white phosphorous on hospitals.

I think the rest of the world wants Israel to take on board modern lessons of democracy and equality, at a bare minimum. But I suppose that's too much of an ask for the perpetual vicimized bully that is fanatical fascist Israel.

They don't even have a constiution because they fear allowing Arabs, non Zionists, equal rights and representation.

 > The Declaration of Independence was adopted on the Fourth of July in 1776. We, as Americans, are all too familiar with the statement from the Declaration which states “We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal”—yet, lines below refers to Native Americans, who we all know are the first inhabitants and stewards of this land, as “merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions”.

 It is clear, that “all men are created equal” does not include the Native Americans who are clearly perceived as subhuman to the United States of America’s founding fathers. The roots of injustice in the United States of America is written for the entire world to read: Merciless. Indian. Savages
