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

OP's answer to that first comment contains the sentence:

Yeah yeah. You’re right of course. I am an American child of the 80’s though which is why my mind uses the hammer and sickle still. Also, fuck Russia.

It's pathetic clown-to-clown-communication clown-to-clown-conversation

Liberals really are proud that their understanding of the world never evolves past childhood, huh.

Everytime someone treats modern Russia as if it's still the Soviet Union or even remotely communist, I die a little inside.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

But they raised the Soviet victory banner over Marinka!

-actual reasoning for Russia being communist I saw on the war thunder sub. Utterly cursed community that game has.

American troops were flying the confederate battle flag through multiple wars of imperialist aggression over the last 100 years so ipso facto QED igpay atinlay America is a slave state.

Fucking reddit nerds.

czarist imperialist

Liberals love nothing more than co-opting revolutionary language and rendering it useless through constant misuse

[–] [email protected] 24 points 11 months ago

Like is he czarist? Ok, then get that hammer and sickle off there, the czar would have you killed for flying that shit

My personal theory is that anyone over the age of 50 or so has suffered even more severe brain damage than we have from huffing lead and concentrated brain damage which causes even otherwise educated people to Believe the most ridiculous and delusional things about Russia and the ussr

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago (1 children)

NGL, it would be kinda funny to call some CHUDs "the real leftists" or "reverse-woke"

[–] [email protected] 22 points 11 months ago

Nothing better than labeling yourself as politically asleep.

[–] [email protected] 25 points 11 months ago

There was a reddit post that was titled like "the decisions pretty clear"

And one of them was "American suppirting president vs puppet of communist russia"

"Heronof climate change vs guy who wants to drill more"

And there was actually a bunch of people calling out calling Trump was a communist was bullshit unfortunately they didn't extend that skepticism to saying the guy who was increasing gas production was an environmental hero.

No surprise. The bourgeoisie are very nasty people, as people tell him all the time. And many people say, many people say that America has some very, very fantastic workers. The biggest. Would make anyone turn communist.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago (2 children)

reposting a comment from a couple months ago, as these people can’t even be original in their idiocy and it’s just too good a copypasta:

Folks, the bourgeois, they're no good, more and more people are saying it. All these workers— the biggest, we have the biggest workers— very handsome workers come up to me and say, Comrade Trump there is a specter haunting Europe, and you know what, they're right. These bourgeois are very nasty people, very very rude, and very unfair to the workers. They are stealing our surplus value and no one is doing anything about it. The proletariat comes up to me every day and says, Comrade Trump will you lead the revolution? And I gotta turn to them and say look, the instruments of capitalism will be used to bring about its destruction, believe me. The means of production, Obama never wanted to seize them. Well guess what? I'm seizing them. Landlords? They're done for folks. Everyone told me— they said, Comrade Trump you won't be the vanguard of the revolution and they would laugh, the media laughed the democrats laughed, guess who's laughing now?

I considered looking for that copypasta, but decided not to because I'm lazy. Thank you for posting it though, it is never the wrong time for Comrade Trump to go on his rant!

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago

[–] [email protected] 8 points 10 months ago

[–] [email protected] 20 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Is reddit full of facebook boomers now?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 11 months ago

it's been like that for several years now

[–] [email protected] 17 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Russia is ideologically closer to the Provisional Government than the USSR or even the Russian Empire.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

American Liberals don't know anything about Russian history.
