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

usians are the most propagandized people on earth
Usians will read excerpts from declassified CIA files and be like "oh yeah Im such a leftist"
Then immediately tell you that we need to invade north korea because they have nukes.
Usians will admit every fault and atrocity with their regime but the second you suggest consequences and reparations it all goes out the window and they call you an extremist and anti-american.

I love it when they destroy themselves because of their own empty red scare fearmongering about "tankies" and just start witch hunts.
Also, custom reddit avatars as so damn ugly, they make me automatically want to disregard the opinion of anyone dumb enough to pay for that.
wait you have to fucking pay for those?? unreal
you pay for reddit premium and you get extra outfits
utterly torn between 
and 
These aren't leftists they're redditors
The tankies aren't in the room right now and we need to change that. 
Huthies + Uygers, the geopolitical power couple
But the tankies are saying US bad and NATO bad, so they must be bad too!
These are some damn stinky liberals.
the rank fucking smug ignorance of accusing YEMEN a country which has for the last 8 years been bombed to hell and back by a regional superpower with support from the global hegemon of doing IMPERIALISM for having the temerity to assert any kind of agenda on the world stage may their throats sprout boils and their livers rot fucking scum crackers
idk maybe I'm slow to realize this, maybe I'm not getting a clear view of the facts, but I grew up under the Bush administration, and became enfranchised under the Obama administration, and I thought the obvious takeaways there were that 1) the US empire is irredeemably evil and 2) the liberal proponents of empire are not to be trusted any more than their conservative fellows. I'm not expecting everyone my age to be a communist, but I don't know how you attain this level of obliviousness unless you did not know how to read for most of your life. This is something beyond mere propagandization, these people live in an alternate dimension or quite possibly in the basement of the pentagon. It's drivin me nuts.
As someone of a similar age and path, that should have been the takeaway. But, in my case it really took until 2016 DNC shenanigans to really cement that. It's just insanity for these people where we do the same horrendous shit and they expect a different result.
Also, something that has been mentioned on here before is reading mainstream news. Like, I consider myself pretty well informed, but I don't read the New York Times or listen to NPR. I think they don't realize the amount of propaganda that is contained within even the most neutral articles. Reactionary behavior is ingrained into the liberal, western brain.
I've said from the start of this horror, western opinions do not matter anymore
All that matters is 
It is so early in the day to be this angry I fucking hate 
When all you have is ~~a hammer~~ imperialism, every problem is ~~a nail~~ caused by tankies huh?
if anything, Houthis want to do an Imperialism for their own nefarious goals.
Liberals think imperialism is "thing I don't like", don't they?
They got sick of people to their left calling what they were doing imperialism so they're going with the time tested strategy of "no you"
Kinda like how chuds say communists are the real fascists.
Like almost exactly like it.

me when I flatten power dynamics
You're telling me the heart of NATO leftists is full of NATO leftist? I'm willing to bet the top five countries of origin for the users in that comment section are all part of NATO or the Five Eyes.
The Filipino guy counts as NATO leftist by proxy, seeing as the Philippines are considered a Major Non-Nato Ally by the US.
As far as I know, that sub is just a standard lib dRuMpF bAd circlejerk so yeah

The Houthis are not blockading the red sea. They're striking civilian ships with missiles.
I wonder if this person thinks a naval blockade involves putting up a big fence across the sea
Seriously. Reminds me of people calling for no fly zones as if it's just a button you push and then no can fly there. No dudes you gotta enforce things. Often with missiles
historical idealism made manifest. "we said you couldn't fly!"

"Leftists"
Houthis want to do an imperialism
I seriously want to punt every person who speaks in this infantile tone across a field
Let us not forget that the Houthis have killed literally 0 (zero) people in this conflict and Israel have killed 24,000 (TWENTY FOUR THOUSANDS) people and counting. This amount of malding because muh shipping routes and insignificant price increase on treats.
Huthie? Ithn't that the guy that made Homethtuck?
Good to hear LSC is still somewhat based and continues to piss off libs.
They've finally added a couple of mods who are actually active and have started cracking down on the libs hard
