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

So all those Jews who are one the front lines of pro Palestinian / anti Zionism marches are now "antisemitic"? Good luck with that.

How about Zionism and "israel" has proven itself to be a racist fascist belief system with shit tons of documentation. They can make all the resolutions they want but when it comes to enforcement it is unconstiutional. What's more - "israel's" crimes will be put on litteral trial in the court rooms and official records. So good luck justifying it all in court.

Go ahead lock up the anti Zionist Jews. Then be prepared for the blowback.

Your capitalist news sources probably aren't gonna focus on that idea.

all of them are just evil self hating jews, not true ones like me Mr Shabibo

monkey paw curls and the US starts detaining anti zionist jewelry without a shred of irony

This coming on the heels of the republicans voting down a resolution against openly hanging out with Nazis is chefs-kiss

The House could pass a resolution stating that Pi = 3 and these fools would vote for it

[–] Goferking0@ttrpg.network 14 points 2 years ago

True but I'm betting most would think voting yes means they'd get 3 pies

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 11 points 2 years ago

Pi is closer to 3 than anti zionism is to antisemitism

They couldn't pass a law for cancelling dst though thonk

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago

That's because cancelling DST would be a good thing. Congress can only do evil things. This is not a bit.

This is like when Biden got the Eurocucks to condemn China for Uyghur genocide by saying that voting against it or abstaining made you complicit. They certainly don't seem to have that in mind with their Israel positions.

does it do anything besides political grandstanding? like does it make it easier to charge protestors with terrorism or hate crimes if they wave a palestinian flag?

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Seems grandstanding (as in courts wont fine you, but the free market of universities/linkedins will). nazi right to free speech was defended with disturbing regularity, but probably someone will wave 50 citations at you that its antisemitism and corbyn your job prospects

[–] PM_ME_YOUR_FOUCAULTS@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago

Pretty sure they did this exact same thing in Germany and then used it to censor people despite it being a non-binding resolution

[–] FumpyAer@hexbear.net 12 points 2 years ago

Yes, just grandstanding and it also will function as a way for zionists to mudsling at anti-zionists in elections.

[–] TheLastHero@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

they probably are celebrating in Tel Aviv but I don't think a single American actually cares what the opinion of Congress is. It's literally the most hated institution in America, so can't imagine it's going to actually influence anyone except those whose jobs depend on adhering to the Washington Consensus

[–] GnastyGnuts@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

Cynical and craven politicking in defense of the most special little apartheid state and the genocide they're committing.
