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

Even if you're a monarchist dipshit he was a long fucking way from being the best Tsar lmao

fascism is a loser ideology. for these guys he's the best because he was stabbed in the back by the forces of judeobolshevik liberal modernity. the fact that he probably could have done any number of things differently to avert revolution is not a mark against him.

Yea for real they could have chosen the guy who literally beat Napoleon what a missed opportunity, but let’s be honest we all know why they picked this one instead.

[–] Dolores@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

the appeal honestly alludes me. the guy who instigated revolt by being a dogshit, delusional administrator, or the guy who folded to a clique of useless liberals? which one is the guy these fascists are rooting for? because both are supremely unimpressive

I guess it makes sense since the fact that one dipshit is all it takes to lose it all is yet another mark against monarchy (ignoring all the mistakes of the past couple of tsars which led up to his reign).
