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

I thought that was what they thought about the Irish though? Pretty sure before they were love bombed they would've bent over backwards to suck Hitler off. Maybe it was just the first widely documented (in glorious black and white photography) abusive relationship between two deeply in love countries?

Sure, but they're not going to teach that to you in English grade school during the 1980s.

England's biggest beef against Germany was that the Germans got to do Trans-European colonialist empire building during the 1930s/40s while the English commitment to right-wing economic policy left them shitting in their own bed for 30 years.
