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

when did this happen?

NEVER, IT NEVER HAPPENEDPurged by having them die in combat
Critical uuuuuh support for nazis willingly throwing themselves in the meat grinder.
They yearn for the mines
translation anyone?
good to know
Putin did most of the purging for him
Liberals have a grassroots process of extrapolating good/bad things based on vibes. Of course, the NYT won't publish report that Putin is trying to eradicate every Ukrainian, but he's a bad guy, so he must be.
Zelenskyy is a good guy, and he's Jewish, so he must have denazified the military, even if there's no source for these claims.
Once you notice this pattern you can find it everywhere, there's no critical thinking going on at all. Like Qanon there's a vibe, a (very stupid) utopian horizon, and any information at all is confirmation that the vibe is correct, Putin is losing, Ukraine is winning, bidenomics exists and is working and we're one proxy war away from the liberal internationale.
"Anything that can go well, will go well." As the popular lib bumper-sticker around here states
