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

Someone commented that "we're shooting past clean wehrmacht, past the recent innovation of clean SS and all the way straight to clean Hitler."

[edit] OK, I'll just say it - over 30k and counting. "You are like Hitler if you don't want to genocide the Palestinians".

The Holocaust was not remotely a secret to people in Nazi-occupied territory, that's a massive historical revision. There was an attempt to erase evidence as they lost ground to prevent the Allied forces from learning about what they did, or at least the full extent, but any Pole or German with eyes who was able to walk the street during the day could have told you that people were being "done away with" systemically and sometimes just killed in the street.

It's frankly disgusting to pretend that the Holocaust was some kind of secret operation except for being draped in the thinnest forms of euphemism when it was described.

Imagine voting for the guy that keeps calling jews vermin and wants them removed from germany and then all jews disappearing, I think most people know. Btw they tried to avoid building camps near the western borders, because of le international community, but the rest of the country was fair game.

Important to note that Hitler did not win that election, the liberal Hindenberg did. Hindenberg then appointed Hitler to the next highest office (in a depraved attempt to appeal to the fascists) and, during his term, died in office, at which point Hitler seized power in what you could call a soft coup.

Tbf he had still a lota supporters, but yeah Von Papen und Hindenburg kinda like went behind the publics back to make the nazis win faster lol.

Oh yeah, he still got a decent portion of the vote and after he spent some time as fuhrer (and purged leftists, minorities, etc) he had like 2/3 support. My point was that he was never voted into office ever. Period.
