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

Isn't the "motherland" just "homeland" in concept? IE the birth/home country of origin that you have? I was under the impression that members of the USSR all considered their "motherland" to be different countries within the ussr.
Has this dumbass done a single ounce of thought on whether his own country would expect him to die for his own "motherland" ? Almost certainly an american, and almost certainly would be drafted if a war required it.
Yes but it's Russian so it's different. Sorta like how Russians don't have rich people that own everything instead they have oligarchs.
It's more democratic because we changed the rules to stop a popular president from being able to stay in office even if the people want them to. Now, please choose between Hitler and Orange Hitler; it's the most important election of our lifetime!
Americans foaming at the mouth when Bad Country elects a popular leader for the third time in a row, because obviously term limits are not merely constitutional but natural law. Unless you're a congressional rep or a senator. Or a judge.
