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

The American Flag is the flag of a fascist imperialist power. It's a Nazi flag. No it's not "just as cringe". What "Z" and the anti-imperialist multipolar struggle represents is not "just as bad" as fucking AMERICA.
I thought this place was finally past the both sides bullshit, but it seems continually mired here.
Russia is run by America's goon squad and aren't anti-imperialist, they're just anti the biggest empire, sure the balance of power says to fight the biggest and worst one but that doesn't make the type of shit in the OP any less stupid. Iran is far better than either of those countries and they have an even more justified and important struggle against the US but would you slap them on a rainbow flag? If fuckin like, Uganda or Saudi started blocking oil to America you could praise that without making it seem like they're compatible with gay and trans rights.
It being marginally more cringe isn't because Russia has marginally worse effects on the world, it absolutely doesn't, it's marginally more cringe because it's more opposed specifically to freedom of gender expression and sexuality.
Speaking before the meeting, Kim said: “Russia has risen to a sacred fight to protect its sovereignty and security. We will always support the decisions of President Putin and the Russian leadership … and we will be together in the fight against imperialism.”
Kim Jong Un, who knows better than you what is and what is not imperialism.
Russia serves America? Russia is the main force on Earth combatting America. Look to comrade KJU, you are out of line and making a common chauvinist error of both sidesism
"Z" specifically symbolized a struggle against NATO. It doesn't represent the nation of Russia. Z is a good and based symbol.
This makes it seem like you don't know what I mean but I think you do know what I mean
I think you're just yet another westerner who can't get on the correct side of the line
Ok so you definitely don't. Ok then
Edit: Gladly. Disengaged.
Disengage
I really hope this is a bit
