the_dunk_tank
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

Yes, you are literally being perceived to have power and organisation.
???
If there's a media blackout on your protest, no tik tok, no Facebook, no cnn, your protest is going to be smaller and potentially less effective.
Again, blame the media.
It's not our fault.
People are literally getting beaten up by fascists and possibly killed.
And? I'm not arguing that the protests are "invalid ", nor that their cause isn't just, nor that people aren't getting merced or beaten up.
I'm arguing against autism dragons opening title statement that protests are not about being seen.
They are being seen, increasingly. It's working.
Yes, good. Autism dragon was saying it was not at all about being seen, which I disagree with.
Okay, but you seemed to be saying that it was falling short of that?
No, I'm saying autism dragons initial statement of "Protests are about aesthetics you see." Is (through) implying that social reach is irrelevant to the goals of a protest.
Alright.
that is not their argument, they are mocking this person for not appreciating the vibes of the anti genocide protests, and thinking that's a reasonable criticism. This protest isn't fashionable enough, thats the thing, not that the person acknowledged that people see protests
I only read the first part of the image and forgot what it was about, read the title, got annoyed and posted.
And then posted 6 more times, arguing. Maybe take a step back next time :)
Yes, because I thought I was right and people were jumping down my throat. I only read the full image a few hours later after a bunch of classes. I felt like my point was pretty clear and indisputable. I obviously don't agree with the second comment in the image
