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

"No aid for 6+ months"

Huh. What about the other 115 months?

[–] Adkml@hexbear.net 38 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Imagine saying another country turning off the infinite money tap for 6 months makes them an opponent in war

ukkkraine trying to do a stabbed in the back narrative but sobbing so hard they can't get thewords out.

Among other issues, left-wingers have been pointing out the US is an unreliable ally who was in this due to geopolitical interests. When it's slightly less advantageous they leave no matter the damage. It literally always happens this way.

with that kind of opposition ukraine never stood a chance

liberals becoming early 1970s era conservatives whining about Vietnam speed run let's gooo

[–] Gosplan14_the_Third@hexbear.net 24 points 1 year ago

Considering these true believers in the bourgeois state are all a bunch of wannabe Kissingers, it's highly fitting.

[–] invo_rt@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

Many such cases.

[–] Great_Leader_Is_Dead@hexbear.net 41 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"NAFO Frens" and "Israel" should really be listed on the Ukrainian side.

[–] Gosplan14_the_Third@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, Israel isn't really that pro-Ukraine in the conflict. It merely happens to be a second pet cause of liberals at the same time as the first one.

[–] CTHlurker@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

Isreal did send some guns/ammo to the Ukrainians after being asked by the US. It caused quite a stir in Russia, since Russia and Israel had a good relationship for a while, particularly because Israel doesn't do extradition and it's insanely easy to get an israeli passport if you're russian. According to Brace Belden of TrueAnon, the organized crime elements of the Israeli state and the russian state are also quite interlinked.

Waiting countdown before Pope Francis and some Polish farmers simulatenously get merked by some NAFO car bombs, which plunges Europe into a new World War... luau

Last time they killed a pope nobody said shit

[–] Lemmygradwontallowme@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Do you think no one's said shit about the theater shooting at Russia?

I have no idea what level of coverage the crocus shooting has been getting in the media. The timing of the escalated missile strikes in Ukraine by the RUAF could be correlated, but there are confounding factors there as well. Such as the also recent incursions into Kursk and Belgorod, and the overall momentum of the SMO generally.

TikTok tankies

We're too powerful

[–] AssortedBiscuits@hexbear.net 32 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Ok go suck russian dick or what do polish farmers' defenders do with their free time. There's fucking research from some polish institution showing that ukrainian grain is like 2 or 3% at best of all grain market in poland. And before you say smth like it's illegally imported from Lithuania, that research covers that too lol. So all that was just couple logistic companies not liking some competition from ukrainian logistic companies. Not to ruin that polish circlejerk with "yeah it is completely justified to ruin last bits of working economy in ukraine bcs our farmers can't buy the latest and biggest john deer for european grants", just so you understand you in fact do that just bcs you poles still hate ukrainians after all those years. Now go fuck yourself

lol

[–] oregoncom@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Wow who would've thought the Poles would dislike a bunch of guys rallying around a guy known for massacreing Poles.

[–] huf@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

[–] GlueBear@hexbear.net 16 points 1 year ago

Nah I agree with the US's placement. UK should be there too. Both have been blocking negotiations with Russia.

I avoid reddit in all forms but what's the problem with these links specifically?
