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

Hasan is a saint trying his best to make a capitalist understand why capitalism = bad.

He’s not gonna get it, bro. It’s not in his materialist interest.

TBH, Hasan is also not the best debater but every other “socialist” debatebro is a PatSoc chud so I don’t think they’ll do a better job.

He used to be better, but I think because Twitch as a platform allows you to ramble on and on, and you only have to respond to a chat which of course has a much harder time communicating, it worsens your debate skills over time.

No, his criticisms of capitalism are based on materialism and the nature of wage labor, not just “oppression” and “exploitation”, so this criticism doesn’t apply. He doesn’t endeavour to convince capitalists that they’re morally wrong and should stop, he openly talks about how if things don’t change, revolution will be inevitable. It’s pretty basic Marxist stuff.

At best, it’s like trying to make a class traitor out of Ethan. So, this shows how even the most well-meaning of Libs and SucDems are still capitalists and that class traitors are rarer than Shiny Pokemon, ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE A COMPANY THAT EMPLOYS PEOPLE.
