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 !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
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

I really want to know what he meant by this. Is this guy not distinguishing between the Tsars and the Soviets or something?
In my experience, the vast majority of libs don't make any distinction. The Russian Empire == the Soviet Union == the modern day Russian Federation. The crimes of one are the crimes of all.
The only exception is when talking about the Romanovs. The Romanovs were perfect little beans who were unjustly slaughtered by the evil rampaging Soviets, even if that person would hate the Empire for the pogroms (though to be fair, most people think Stalin did that)
The most interesting part is that OUN was created to fight against Poland.
