"The More Russians we kill, the safer Taiwan becomes" is far too mainstream for a take that is patently batshit insane sounding. it's even a little surprising that people can just copy+paste that take with no further elaboration and not think "wait, what the fuck am I talking about?"

If China invaded Taiwan tomorrow the same exact people will be shamelessly saying "See I told you, Xi Jingping is an insane dictator, I've always said this" as if they didn't spend literal years operating under the assumption that Xi is rational and would be intimidated by efficient NATO imperialism.

China doesn't invade: "This is proof U.S. hegemony keeps China in line" China does invade: "This is proof the U.S. should bomb all crazy commies to ash and that U.S. hegemony is preferable"

No matter what happens, the result will always confirm their bias.

During da Cold war, the anticommunist ideological framework could transform any data about existing communist societies into hostile evidence.

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
