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

Atleast the replies and quotes are 90% good. Still the occasional anti-Russia shill in there. but damn. No matter how anti-communist Putin is, and under him Russia has become
, at least they still hate Nazis. Can't say the same for any Western country (other than Ireland I guess).
Ireland doesn't seem to mind Ukrainian Nazis. A broken clock is right twice a day. Doesn't mean it isn't broken.
At least the MEPs they send to Brussels have from the start identified the Russo-Ukraine War publicly as a war ultimately stoked by Western destabilization, from its origins in 2014, which is cynically supported by the US because of the business investment opportunities in post-war devastated places.
I remember people laughing about it for some reason, implying he's a hypocrite, but I dont remember the details. I was never under the impression he had much if any support in Ireland, alas, thankfully I dont know the opinion of every Irish person.
Mick Wallace and Clare Daly are the ones you want to look up. They consistently have exactly the same position Hexbear has had.

I am aware of Mick, he's the one who got mocked. Mind you, I had to move out of Ireland nearly a year ago, so maybe the moods have changed since (would be cool since I will be returning in a few months).
