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

No, Muslims.
‘*Ibn al‐Athir, perhaps drawing on firsthand knowledge, reports that the city’s patriarch aroused fellow Franks to avenge this loss by making a picture of Jesus that “portrayed Christ (peace be upon him) along with an Arab, depicted as beating him. They put blood on the portrait of Christ and said to the people, ‘This is Christ with Muhammad, the prophet of the Muslims, beating him. [Muhammad] has wounded and slain him.’”*’
What's wrong with Xtians?
Politically motivated miseducation that ultimately derives from the ruling class.
Thankfully, there have also been many heroic Christians: self‐sacrifice is, I would argue, the noblest of all themes associated with Christianity, and there have been some Christians who recognised that and put it into practice.
My favourite example was when the burghers of Regensburg gave their Jewish neighbours insincere baptisms to save them from violence (albeit violence from other self‐identified Christians, but still). Admittedly the New Testament might not have directly influenced their choice to be saviours, but I’d argue that they still demonstrated better Christian behaviour (and certainly better human behavior) than many Christians who adopt their faith simply for cultural or political reasons.
Works for me
