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

"speaking out against anti-Semitism" in this context means calling anyone who criticises Israel anti Semitic while desperately trying to brush the greedy blood drinking hook nosed goblin bankers that have a star of David on the floor under a massive rug

Didn't she write a book where the Good Team was going to stop the Bad Team from preventing the muggles from commiting WW2/the Holocaust?

Screenplay - that's the meta plot of the Fantastic Beast movies.

The promotional stuff looks like someone fed antisemitic trope into AI. Wild that anyone would approve of that

Wasn't her 'speaking out against anti-Semitism' just her being angry about Corbyn wanting to raise her taxes?

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

Yeah, but he was such an antisemite for checks notes considering Palestinians humans?

TERF island must be sunk.

The journalist should apologize for apologizing

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

It's like someone did a photorealistic rendering of "the happy merchant" and Rowling just went with it. Jesus fucking Christ.

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

Didn't she write some shitty book after Harry Potter where the plot is the good guys have to keep the villain from preventing the holocaust?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

That's the screenplay for the second Fantastic Beasts movie.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i never paid that much attention to that lib shit so i must have missed it

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

IIRC it's on the floor of the goblin bank in one of the movies. It was already at the physical location and she probably wasn't involved with choosing it.

Helluva coincidence...
