I haven't seen so much effort put into a set in years. This would decent if it wasn't so damn propogandistic. Of course the message is "communism hates science".

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 at our worst, humanity never tried to kill all of a new group that they encountered. Trade and diplomacy (admittedly with a wide range if violence underpinning it) has always been the human M.O. with inly a handful of very rare exceptions.
Even European genocide of Native Americans started off with intentions of trade. In fact, it was really only British colonization, carried on by their American and Canadian descendents, that opnelt tried to exterminate the natives. French colonization (outside of Caribbean slave plantations) was mainly focused in trade networks centered around frontier outposts. Spain came in a toppled the existing power structures in Meso and Southern America and ruled over the deposed empires.
Encounters with advanced alien races wouldn't result in the intentional destruction of humanity, but instead would likely end up with total upheaval of our society, and the powers that be are terrified of that.
