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 am genuinely confused by hexbear too

Is it a site for queer people or for beanis lovers?

Good thing there's a pretty standard set of trope copes.

"Ukraine is too corrupt and wasted our western wunderwaffe", or maybe, "Ukraine kept defaulting to their own tactics instead of using western training because the slavic brainpan is simply incapable of superior angloid warfare" or hell, lets go with a classic for the bitter Ukrainian nazi's if there are still enough alive to have a say "our jewish leadership hamstrung us" -- something in line with the typical satanically racist "garden" thinking.

The kind of narrative that lets them slip on by without considering whether or not they were lied to, or the stability of high GDP economies that don't actually manufacture anything except consent.

The too corrupt thing is kinda true bit that was also widely known before the war. It's why a lot of people had a problem with sending billions of dollars to one of the most corrupt governments in the world that's infested with self avowed neo nazis.

yeah pff, watch them eventually settle on something like "that communist orban betrayed the effort, that's why we lost. we need another red scare, but this time for real!"
