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

Aside from this being complete fantasy, do these freaks know that they're proving Putin is right for not trusting the west when they openly talk about carving up Russia like this? I assume not since they're unironically drawing 21st century versions of Generalplan Ost. eu-cool

Also, this map has some very bizzare internal borders

Stalin's paranoia about Western Europe's designs on Russia continue to be vindicated.

The Soviet Union was invaded by every major European power in the aftermath of the revolution and again a few years later by Nazi Germany, it was never paranoia.

Even America, Canada and Imperial Japan got in in the action

Imperial Japan is honestly the only one that makes sense from a non-ideological POV

It's a good one to throw in because "remember when the US allies with Imperial Japan to crush an inddependence movement and restore a monarch to the throne" is the kind of thing that sounds made up and that people will argue with you over, and then you rugpull them and from that point on, their reflexive, defensive doubt about the evils of their empire will always have a little crack in it. "What? Putting nazis in power all over Europe? Strategy of tension, falsa flag terror attacks? That sounds crazy! But then again, Siberia..."

Stalin should have pushed past Berlin and integrated the West European SSR.

which paranoia in particular? where can I read about it?
