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

oh my god the outrage the internet had about the idea that maybe using black people as your reaction gifs was kinda fucked up
how dare you take away my reaction treats i NEED to use them they are my emotional support minstrel gifs
You ever think about how, no matter how cringe you can be, no matter how badly you fuck up and let others down, at least you'll never do reddit-speak unironically?
this feels like 2003 again, but just sadder and even more genocidal this time. I remember even then the moderate liberal position was to kill every person who owns a Quran supposedly in the name of women's and gay rights. Yeah, ok.

Imagine being this creative
Inspiring how Israel's bombs blow up entire buildings while leaving all gay Palestinians unscratched!
Well then clearly the only solution here is to keep bombing Gaza until they're chill with gay people
"Should we tell they/them?"
Not how pronouns work. They is only used to indicate a grammatical subject.
They/them don't care it's just virtue signalling that you/yours hate trans people
"they/them" is literally ungrammatical in the sentence "Should we tell they/them?"
The slash (/) is generally used to show that either word could be used. "They" doesn't work in the sentence "should we tell they", so shouldn't be listed as an option.
But now that I reread your comment I think you're agreeing with the parent post and saying that the person that xitted the ungrammatical xit was doing the virtue signaling. [Insert SNL Church Lady saying "never mind" here]
what do these people think occupations do for minority rights among the occupied people?
what do they think occupations do for reactionary elements among the occupied people?
Queers for America
Florida: Who wants to tell them?
sorry comrade, i'm only interested in joining queers against the united states
As a queer, I'd like to say that I've seen these kinds of people bring up Christian persecution in the Middle East and North Africa thousands of times in order to deflect responsibility for anti-queer sentiments/legislation by Christians in western countries. Apparently supporting the oppressed despite having ideological differences isn't important when it doesn't benefit them.
the surface level statement here is "palestinian muslims are queerphobic, therefore fascist israel should keep bombing them" as though that would somehow fix the problem of queerphobia. But the deeper implication behind this rhetoric is that the imperial core in general is pro queer and the imperial periphery is queerphobic, and that settler-colonialism has nothing to do with capitalism or imperialism or racism, and it instead has everything to do with the imperial core bourgeoisie magnanimously and philanthropically spreading "human rights" to the "backwards" people... what really pisses me off about this is that, for the longest time, indigenous queerness was crushed by colonial forces under a standard of european christian heteronormativity. Only recently has the periphery gotten this reputation of somehow being less "socially progressive" (problematic term that divorces base from superstructure) than the imperial core, and that reputation is owed entirely to the imperial core funding and arming reactionaries everywhere in the periphery, to crush organic grassroots progress in the periphery, because it was allied with anti-colonialist, anti-imperialist, and anti-capitalist forces of various political tendencies. The truth is, the imperial core doesn't want the periphery developing its own organic movements for queer rights. It wants to use the absence of these rights as a license to do imperialism and colonialism. And it has actively manufactured the lack of these rights by always backing reactionaries whenever it has the chance.
Although the screenshot is mostly conservatives, a lot of liberals believe this too. But when you point out that Cuba has changed drastically since it’s state homophobia days to including LGBT people in the constitution, they will cry and pick it apart for any reason why it’s not real progress.
Capitalists, but specifically the liberals and conservatives, pretend that their ideologies have always been tolerant. Although it’s a conservative cliche, the democrats were literally the party of slavery and the KKK. Black people, Asian people, Hispanic people, LGBT people, and hell even non Anglo Europeans were treated like subhumans. They want to pretend that communism and non western societies are frozen in time, never to evolve past reactionary sentiment as if the west has.

boom. you got right to the heart of it.
Almost as if it’s better to re-educate a population and improve their material conditions than to exterminate them.
If the walls around their prison crumbled because of queer intervention, I think some of them would listen
