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 believe in this context he quoted something Marx wrote about supporting "revolutionary parties in Bourgeoisie elections" and either missed the "revolutionary" part or he claimed the Democrats to be revolutionary.

He took a quote about Marx supporting Communists running in Bourgeoisie elections and twisted it to support voting for Bourgeoisie parties.

Yea, there's no genuine way to read this other than Marx supporting PSL or other actual Leftist parties, surely people have pointed this out, right? Right? agony-limitless
