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

MODERATORS
Because nationalism was the only political force that could compete with socialism, so capitalists with the help of their Western friends went all in on nationalist propaganda. Ukraine also had the worst recovery from the economic catastrophe of the 90s, so its population was the most dissatisfied with the liberalism. Communists and anarchists there really failed to capitalize on it, so the fascists won and increased the amount of fascist propaganda tenfold. Still, Ukrainians mostly voted against Nazis, protested against Nazi takeover and literally launched an armed uprising in the East, so calling all Ukrainians Nazis is a big overstatement.
I'm most worried about young generation that was raised in situation of total fascist dominance in media and education.
I said many, not all, and that many is especially concentrated in the Ukranian military where it can do the most damage.
