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

Is red book Twitter terminally online Western Maoists?

[–] SexUnderSocialism@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

From what I've observed, some of them also call themselves "nationalist" and stan Gonzalo. cringe

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In my experiance nationalism not so much, but most of them rep Gonzalo yes

He's the baby boiler, right?

[–] oscardejarjayes@hexbear.net 19 points 2 years ago

yeah. baby boiling is technically hyperbole though, that specific fact isn't confirmed, but he did kill infants and boil people alive.

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yeah they all have that emoji in their name.

Cuba has a phrygian cap on their seal and use the flag of a bourgeois republic. they must be jacobins lea-think

[–] Collatz_problem@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

TBH, positive opinion on Jacobins usually correlates with good contemporary politics.

red book twitter is a cakewalk compared to the weasel genocide apologia from bluesky liberals:

What’s happening in Gaza is utterly disgusting and evil - and I also do NOT trust the people who I vividly remember defending Russia’s actions in Ukraine and Assad’s in Syria who now claim to passionately care about the murder of civilians in Gaza.

this shithead (@faineg) is a full on Ukraine partisan trying to use "Israel"'s genocide to launder American imperialism

oh and I have bsky invites but beware the userbase is so far mostly disingenuous liberals

jeb lund and david j. roth are funny guys but are also insufferable liberals who are reposting Biden apologia on there, which sucks

[–] CrushKillDestroySwag@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Liberal democracy is when I don't like a country.

Also the replies under this are somehow even more cursed.

[–] CarmineCatboy@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

it's incumbent on you @autismdragon@hexbear.net to wield the green book emoji and call mao a liberal revisionist

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

Leftbook is a blight on the Communist movement

[–] RyanGosling@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The only time I ever bother to log into twitter is to look at drawings

[–] autismdragon@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

I wish i had gone that route and just followed art accounts so bad.

[–] emizeko@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

up is down

black is white

[–] HarryLime@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago

Oh, he's saying it like a bad thing
