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

Is a lot of this guilt for the Holocaust or something? I don't understand

Euro states wouldn't pass an opportunity to support a genocide

Nah these people are far too cynical and empathy-impaired to feel a complex emotion like guilt, what they do feel is a kind of cultural cringe as a result of the Holocaust, other European bougies make fun and look down on them because the German political project was defeated and humiliated

So they construct a whole social narrative of "WE know what real genocide and antisemitism looks like, look how enlightened and above our past we are, unlike YOU" end of the day these motherfuckers are just as antisemitic as they are Islamophobic

Is this the closest thing to actual white guilt? Not the way reactionaries use it ofc.

[–] SkingradGuard@hexbear.net 5 points 8 months ago

Idk, I think it also has to do with the fact that many many Europeans don't see muslims as human too.
