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

Fixation on food security

The man is OBSESSED with food security.

All he thinks about is FEEDING PEOPLE.

What kind of SICK FUCK just goes around all day wondering how to GENERATE ENOUGH FOODSTUFF FOR 1.4B PEOPLE

Jesus FUCKING Christ, what a psycho.

The See See Pee bribes the Chynese people with food, water, and shelter for support

Xi is done for

It's despicable when governments bribe people to vote for them by performing the basic functions of government!

I take offense with this because I AM actually obsessed with food security and food-related struggles, and Xi Jinping does other things than single-mindedly doing food-related activism and work all the time. He's a poser

Xi fucking CALLED OUT, is he too much a coward to respond?

Why would this country that has a written history going back thousands of years recording famine and its resulting upheaval be concerned with food security?

Must be the inscrutable oriental brainpan.

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 5 points 2 years ago (11 children)

Yes. The single individual. Forcing this country of over a billion people against their will to have their own sustainable food supply. On his own. Like a dictator.

Chinese farmers are just yearning for the opportunity to grow bananas for the United Fruit Company.

[–] zifnab25@hexbear.net 6 points 2 years ago (2 children)

In East Germany, no banana.

In Venezuela, only banana.

In Glorious People's Republic of Walmart, choose any food you want and one of our child slaves will be by shortly to bring it to you.

I think it is actually authoritarian that we're not allowed to hunt economists for sport
