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

Dresden Firebombing whataboutism

Blitzkrieg, the Nazi's war plans, revolved almost entirely on carpet bombing civilians. You can't just gesture at a single atrocity and pretend the allies were just as bad.

Also, if someone replied to that post by saying something like "Cwmparc bombings. Ring a bell?" He'd probably start morshupls about how you have to make tough choices in war so that's why the Luftwaffe had to drop all their bombs on a bunch of orphans and the farmers that took them in.

bomber harris do it again

the idea of dresden not being a military target is literal nazi propaganda

  1. it was a major rail hub for nazi supplies to the eastern front
  2. there were multiple arms factories there

I don’t understand why he brings up the firebombings?

The British and Americans did a massive crime against humanity therefore the Canadians are allowed a few Nazis, as a treat?
