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.

MODERATORS
Gustav Noske (9 July 1868 – 30 November 1946) was a German politician of the Social Democratic Party (SPD). He served as the first Minister of Defence (Reichswehrminister) of the Weimar Republic between 1919 and 1920. Noske waknown to use army and paramilitary forces to suppress the socialist/communist uprisings of 1919.
They supported a succdem and got suppressed?
Yeah it comes from the SPD betrayal (along with the most of II Internationale), SPD supported revolution in Germany only as far as it was bourgeoise revolution and didn't even finished that, only as far as grabbing the power. But they sabotaged worker movement and cracked down violently on every attempt to fight, including at least 3 revolution attempts in 1919-1921, using police and far right freikorps formations. And they never opposed rightwingers like that, freikorps and nazis could organise without much opposition from the government, and during the Kapp putsch SPD did the ostrich and the workers had to save them for which SPD soon repaid with bullets in subsequent worker massacres.
Note that many workers were still members of SPD but their own party repaid them with repression for strikes and other struggle methods.
