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

internet weirdo invents new irreconcilable political position, demands people yell at them
tale as old as time
I agree with what you're saying, but the person who posted that is definitely an internet weirdo begging to be yelled at
Can action against imperialist states be anti-imperialist if the result of victory in that action is growing your own empire?
on paper no, but any action against American hegemony is net anti-imperialist. America just is that bad.
Fair enough
There's only one empire on earth currently
The empire died over a century ago
when your empire is a lot smaller and weaker, I would argue so. less leverage to subjugate people.
I mean, Russia isn't creating an empire, so it's a moot point
Many Such Cases!
It is but thesis meeting antithesis and forming synthesis.
spoiler
You're getting spit all over me
