I've made jokes about galaxy brain takes in the past but I am literally unable to approach this. It's so far beyond a galaxy take. Beyond a universe take. Beyond the history of western philosophy and analysis. It's transcendental. We can't even see the logic because it is SO BEYOND THOUGHT

Because this is not a "take", its not an argument or an intellectual position, its a mirror of some very old basic human psychology which is triballism. In their mind they support the good guys, therefore anyone opposing the good guys are automatically wrong and as a consequence shall be punished. History is often used to support this creating a circular argument.

You see this in nearly every community. "We are the smart ones, we are the best, and everyone else is wrong because they are not us."

It's the worst part of humanity imo

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
