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

Ukraine would have gotten all of that if they could be trusted not to use it to attack Russian mainland. The issue is that the fascists can't be controlled so they have to strictly control and take care not to give them tools that they can use to do that.

Yeah, I love how clueless the libs and NAFO chuds are when every aid package to Ukraine specifically excludes long range missiles for this exact reason

They think Ukraine is gonna be able to hit Putin and end everything like a video game

The big brain move would be to get the UK to ask for them and just include them in the next storm shadow shipment.

I mean Ukraine is supposed to get their first F-16 fighter jets sometime this year, but there is no chance they get the new US toys in the F-35 and F-15EX. They'll never get that.

Will be "delayed".

Wasn't it "some time this year" for the last six months of 2023 too?
