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

Capitalist liberty: A concept so good it's illegal to think otherwise.

"my ideas"

lmao, this dingaling thinks he came up with some of the dumb stuff he says

communism is so over and so defeated that we.... have to continue spending billions and billions of dollars and man-hours to eternally combat it? for the rest of human existence, apparently?

real 'the enemy is both strong and weak' shit

Is this fellow making the case that Russia and Iran are communist countries?

The average person in the west thinks communism simply means bad, scary, foreign place

very successful ideology, where you have to coup all your detractors

[–] [email protected] 25 points 2 years ago

They always think communism is anything that isn't a western liberal democracy lmao

It was nice meeting you all, I'm deleting my account and becoming a LIB after this

"we will bring them to you whether you like them or not"

Hey, how did Khamenei rise to power again?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

You don't understand, it'll work this time. Just look at Ukraine, they're a bastion of liberal democracy after the coup in 2014!

Starting to think this Derek Paradou guy isn't exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago

You know those big crayon boxes with the sharpener that didn't really do much besides make a mess?

That sums him up pretty good

Dude, cold war's over, you won already.

And if you hate socialism so much, why do you call yourself a national socialist? Sounds like you're the real leftist, not me.

I feel this sentiment so deeply. Really can’t be repeated enough. You fucking freaks made this world. You made absolutely sure that there would be no power sharing of any kind with a communist country. And yet they thrash endlessly about a communist hegemony that doesn’t exist. Truly grotesque.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

It's truly something that stands the test of time. They did that even before there were any successful socialist revolutions

A spectre is haunting Europe — the spectre of communism. All the powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: Pope and Tsar, Metternich and Guizot, French Radicals and German police-spies.

Where is the party in opposition that has not been decried as communistic by its opponents in power? Where is the opposition that has not hurled back the branding reproach of communism, against the more advanced opposition parties, as well as against its reactionary adversaries?

your brain scrambled "ideas" come from dead white supremacists justifying why it's okay to own slaves and the very second the capitalist class loses its grip on this earth, your garbage thoughts will mercifully be buried in the landfill of the past

kill me 100 times

Honey you only can go one round before you're out of the game for good

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

I've already modded this guy into the sims. Hope he enjoys swimming in a pool without a ladder.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

Didn't this guy call in a bomb threat on some place?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago

America worshippers have this weird habit of playing power fantasy through US foreign policy, because nobody thinks Australia is capable of ousting any foreign leader outside of tiny Pacific Island nations.

Also this guy ran for political office and got less votes than Joshua4Congress. He's irrelevent and shouldn't be given attention he desperately craves.

It’s Jover

Ah yes noted communist Ayatollah Khomeini

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Then why is this guy still seething about these guys rent free in his head?

Drew Parvo, stay away from my dog

Oh my, my timbers have been shivered! 😱😱😱

I think killing him once would be enough. No reason to be greedy.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago

What a weiner

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

This is fairly eloquent despite being wrong in every single way other than admitting to Capitalism"s lust for violently overthrowing governments for funsies.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Ah yes. Political religiosity
