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

Google translate is able to read it and translate, it can't be that bad, can it?
idk that google devs have ever seen handwritten arabic either
Techbros are generally obsessed with ASCII more than medieval monks are obsessed with Latin because implementing anything else require actual skill and knowledge in programming, which they do not possess.
GOOD post
Normally, handwritten Arabic is a quite a bit more squiggly. This is like writing in victorian cursive to imitate an american's footnote. Looking at the IDF's track record, I'd say it's likely to be staged to some degree
can anyone who can read arabic confirm that it's actually mine kampf? Also that sticky note doesn't look like it has real handwriting on it?
I did a reverse image search and all I found with that cover are other versions of this tweet. I did find an egyptian version of the book and it does seem to say mein kampf
What kind of weird child reads that book in any language
I think it can be material for class at times, I've seen it assigned for some college course in the US at least. Even if it was actually found in a kid's bedroom with notes that doesn't mean they are some kinda nazi. Like is there no Israeli citizen that owns a copy of Mein Kampf? If one was serious about being anti-fascist it seems like a good thing to study. Israel has a weird definition of 'child' in their propaganda so who knows, was it a college or high school-aged student's room?
A lot of people here are appropriately laughing off this garbage but a lot of people either through stupidity or by being racists are happy to believe this
I genuinely do not understand why Israel is so bad at propaganda.
But it works. We'll all still be 
in 2100 crowing about how they lied about the WMDs, ten or twenty such lies on, and no one will have learned a thing.
They don’t have to be good since it doesn’t exist to convince anyone but to delude themselves into thinking they’re anything other than the second coming of Hitler
I'm more disturbed by the lack of media literacy the general population has to fall for this shit as hard as they have.
They don't have to be good at it when their target audience instinctively believes them.
It's not that different from what the US puts out
Never again is now!
but not for the reasons you think!
Folks pay attention to the date in the comic
