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

Also lol at showing Crimea as unambiguously part of Ukraine, but also showing Ukraine bombing Crimea. I guess Ukraine is bombing itself.

Here's why throwing conscripts into a meat grinder is actually winning

The Icarus Project is a good name for soypointing at a war Zelensky thought he could win based on loans and charity.

Just a few more billions, we can kill the sun zelensky-pain

they just stole the thumbnails from real life lore

any day now (and with just a few more billion dollar checks) the Ukrainian military will sweep in with brand new (used) leopard tanks and export M1s covered by a sky darkened by swarms of predator drones and F-35s providing air cover (and also kamikaze attacking when their electronics fail)

just wait for the behemoth of advanced "western industry" to catch up. oh what's that? some hedge fund closed the factories? everything else outsourced? 80% of our GDP is "derivatives" and "securities"?

everything else is rusting away or has been bulldozed into parking lots? no New Deal or Marshall plan era facilities in mothballs just waiting to be restarted?

oh well we got our bags from flipping LMT stonks-up
