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

"Line go up! More war means more treats!" 
You're right to a point, but none of these other conflicts you've listed are nearly as black and white as Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
the opposite is true. Israel is a fascist settler-colonial project that must be dissolved. It's quite black-and-white in fact, extremely simple. Americans illegally invaded Syria and Iraq and steal their oil, they need to get the fuck out. It's very simple, they do not belong there and nobody wants them there and they need to leave or die.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine is extremely complex and a lot of less experienced leftists totally fell for the chauvinist western propaganda and bought into the pro-Ukraine garbage, or even still both sides the situation. The NATO puppet state will be broken, the will be de-nazified and de-militarized and the West will have goaded on a doomed war that killed 500,000 Ukrainian soldiers and still lost.
