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

The world is overwhelmingly with us right now (mainly in Western countries, even including those that are usually critical of us). This is almost unprecedented. In fact, for many decades, the global consensus has been that Israel is the aggressor, not the victim.

One thing that always shocks me about reactionaries is how utterly convinced they are of their own bullshit

Ever seen those MAGA interviews outside the rallies? Some people live in some weird fever dream of their own making, and in Israel it seems to be a racist one.

What they just said there is almost precisely the opposite of my experience, wild

Yeah, they maybe had that for like two days until they started bombing and murdering Palestinian civilians

DO NOT explain Israel’s policy

The issue here is not the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a whole. It is very difficult for us to win there.

lol
