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

"Most communists agree that the soviet union was absolutely horrible btw. The group you're thinking of calls themselves tankies. They fully believe Stalin(and Mao) was actually a good person and all of the bad didn't happen, and was propaganda from the US. I guess bc they think if America is bad, that must mean the USSR was good! In reality they both fucking suck."
Where do these people meet communists? The Vaush livestream chat?
They're doing a "leftist" version of the "international community" line that neolibs have, where by "most communists" they just mean the wretched little scrotums in NATO countries that self-identify as leftists.
Something these breadtube cranks seemingly can't grasp is that the majority of actual leftists (whatever flavor, but it seems to me like most are either ML or Maoist) live outside of North America and Europe. Or maybe they just dismiss them all as tankies brainwashed by the seductive allure of dark and evil authoritarianism, lookin' all hot and domineering and shit, whispering all seductively from the shadows "use the big spoon, baybee".
that and any number of lib "breadtube"
nonsense that poisons their brains.
They're just making it up from half remember Vaush rants they've seen. First, the group they're thinking of do not call themselves tankies, other people do. Second, none of those tankies would say "all of the bad didn't happen". The way they're typing also convinces me it's a lib adult pretending to be a kid.
