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

The New York Post have never been a trustworthy publication in the first place, but calling this headline a shameless lie isn’t even a strong enough way to express the new low the American media’s propagandizing has reached, especially in the last few weeks.

To make such an extreme claim up out of thin air is almost unbelievable even by New York Post standards. This is what western media has resorted to in order to keep those with nominally pro-Israeli views invested in this conflict, and we can only expect it to get worse as the diminishing impact of the shock factor continues.

The r/worldnews post about this was pretty peak Reddit brain. Frothing at the mouth with demand for Muslims to be genocided across the globe. Never change Reddit.

I just found it very peculiar that they were complaining about how they had abducted all these female observers, the people who were supposed to be watching Gaza for attacks. Like how did they all get fucking caught? Weren't they watching? They suck so much that they get their asses captured and then the media is like "they targetted the women!" No they took out the sentries on guard because they're at war with them. Are they supposed to ignore women soldiers or something?

Israelis can't stop screaming about how shitty they are at war now it seems, between the woman trying to blame a ten year old for killing fifty soldiers or how they totally didn't get owned by Hamas soldiers, they just blew up their own squad with a tank... Failsons running a military.

Except for China where harmful and dangerous religious extremism is supposed to be tolerated and jobs programs+education are actually ebil CCP plots to eliminate Muslims (Muslims in China have the second highest birthrate of any census group, second only to Tibetans)

Very surprised that the filth on /r/worldnews, who love to talk about “human shields” in Gaza, have precisely zero questions about israel stationing women on the outskirts of Gaza to send warnings about attacks that the IOF completely ignore

They were ignored because the IDF was busy elsewhere and uhh uh uh the duplicitous Gazans sneak attacked them on a holiday!!!

is what I see in various comment chains
