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

As abrasive as he can be, his brainwashing thesis has been proven true right in front of our eyes the past 6 months with Israeli propaganda. It’s so casually lazy and racist, the people who “believe” it are obviously CHOOSING to because it makes them feel good.
It was immediately obvious Israel bombed the Al-Shifa hospital but we (by which I mean westerners broadly) spent like, a week or more debating whether or not it was a misfired Hamas rocket? Give me a break. By all means critique Roderic, he genuinely welcomes it, but that is easily one of his strongest contributions.
