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

Is this not what they wanted? Seriously what did they think they were fighting for?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

Probably a variety of motives at play, but I'd be willing to bet many of them genuinely think they'll be accepted if they're just dickish enough to libs.

As to whether or not they think their male compatriots will be content to let them continue enjoying the rights that women fought to have for decades...

I've always been a staunch supporter of the face-eating leopards, so why are they treating MY face as prey?

One thing I never understood about these people is that they're somehow completely unaware that their belief system's logical endpoint is either fascism where they (women) end up as second class citizens, or a Christian Theocracy where they end up as second class citizens.

Do they not have a single cohesive thought in their minds?

i can't remember what exactly i was reading about the other day, but the general topic of partisan activity in eastern/central europe during Generalplan Ost. what occurred to me was just how absolutely stupid and shortsighted the reactionary "nationalists" were in allying themselves with the nazis. the nazis were there to literally exterminate everyone and make way for settlement, but everywhere they went, a minority of absolute shitheads would pop up and offer assistance. poles eager to kill jews, ukrainians eager to kill poles, and on and on across every nationality and ethnic group, all of them somehow convinced that their ethnic group would be spared in the grand plan for mass extermination.

i can't grasp the unique blend of opportunism and stupidity that tries to triangulate like this, because it is so obviously a tactic to divide and conquer.

Ernst Rohm didn't have a Twitter account, but he probably would have written shit like this.
