the_dunk_tank
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

Russia - Ukraine: what's there to understand? A strong being evil to a weak.
Israel - Palestine: Listen honey there's ten thousand years of history you need to learn before you talk about this
They always hide behind how "complex and nuanced" the situation is while proving themselves to be unable to grasp the nuance of something being complex historically but simple morally.
Keeping it complex in their head probably helps to rationalize an evil thing as being "Cool and Good" to support. How can it be genocide if its viewed as being too nuanced to fully understand?
There's really a lot of nuance in the libenstraum plan. The untermench are allowed fair chance to prove their bloodlines and their suffering is minimized while they're allowed to labor in our state of the art labor camps. We can't allow them back into the general population because they've become thirsty for violent revenge which makes them savages that need to be kept in camps.
If only they'd stop being so anti German and accept their position and stop resisting.
Ah yes, carpet bombing one of the most densely populated regions in the world with an average age of 18 is morally ambiguous because those children are directly responsible for migrations made by their great grandparents who are now dead because of the last round of carpet bombing.
tbf It is a complex issue for them, because they want to be able to openly support genociding brown people, but also want to look like the victim in all this.
The whole "Slava ukraini" thing libs latched onto really taught them that they can position themselves as the victim even when they have.nothing to do with the conflict. They don't live there, they aren't in the army, but somehow, this is still happening to them.
I remember in the early days of the Ukraine proxy war when FB moms were posting "morning routine: wake up, check if zeilinskeyieyuyieiyyy is ok, get coffee"
every time it's because they haven't actually done any research
I mean seriously get into conversation with them and watch how fast they run out of things to say once you mention anything that happened before 2020... They have severe historical amnesia. That is what it means be a liberal.
It reminds me of the meme about the US civil war:
When you first start studying the civil war: "it was about slavery"
When you have studied it for a year: "actually it was about states rights"
When you have studied it for a long time: "yeah... The states rights to have slaves"
