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

Like yes sure, Russia is a very reactionary country but I wish the westerners good luck with trying to destroy Moscow the way it did Gaza.

Did these people forget the cold war?

This is not to say Hamas or the Houthis are weak ofcourse. Palestinians keep killing the IOF despite the JDAMs.

As soon as we deliver the F-16s, its game over. We've just been pulling our punches.

"With just a few strategic nukes..."

Excited for a wave of "How nuclear winter could be a climate crisis game changer" Op-Eds, as mushroom clouds spring up all over Europe.

You're too late. in a fit of (actual, literal) mania I wrote a white paper explaining how we can ground-detonate nukes in the Sahara to create a massive planet-cooling series of dust clouds. Sure, there will be some undesirable side effects, but tritium makes your bones strong.

I've heard its what plants crave.

Pulling mothballed F-111s and F-4s out of the boneyard to ship them to ukkkraine by boat because they sure as shit can't fly, and insisting that this marks a major turning point against the RuZZian uruks and that victory is imminent

I still don't understand the hype around F-16s. It's an ancient platform and it's not like Ukraine can maintain any form of air superiority long enough to deploy smart bombs...

[–] zifnab25@hexbear.net 13 points 9 months ago

No, see, yes they can because the F-16 is just that good.

You simply do not understand how much better our fighter jets are than Russian fighter jets. American air power could win instantly if we wanted it to. We're just choosing not to deploy it.
