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

Billboard article for some amazing context.:

The guys arrived in Los Angeles from Israel to work on their debut album on Oct. 6, 2023

The group is composed of... Sadik Dogosh, a Palestinian Bedouin Muslim from Rahat; Palestinian Christian Aseel Farah from Haifa...

A complete psyop.

I know Hasan had Dave 1 from Chromeo atleast a couple times, so that's a good Jewish-Arab music duo to listen to. Other than that, a Palestinian artist I found is Nemahsis through this Lorde cover she did to which Lorde said:

I am so grateful for my Palestinian sister for reminding me why I make art – it speaks when I cannot.

Nemahsis was dropped from her label after October 7 so support her if you can.

Oh, also, I almost forgot. Macklemore did Hind's Halland recently released a sequel, Hind's Hall 2, featuring Palestinian artists. He was recently dropped from his Las Vegas show after he said Fuck America at a Seattle show.

Drop more awesome music recs for people to follow instead of this garbage psyop.

i saw their official twitter page earlier today, and they had a grand total of 200 followers

Huh. That alone makes me think they aren't a psyop, you'd think they'd inflate their numbers with bots if they were.

Thank God Chromeo is good to listen to. They're cheesy as fuck but God I love them.

[–] sewer_rat_420@hexbear.net 7 points 1 month ago

I actually just saw them, i only knew a couple songs before but their show was awesome. Definitely made me a fan

Can't believe Chromeo is promoting the bourgeois notion of washing your hands smh.

Just want to highlight MC Abdul (featured on the new Macklemore song) who has been doing some other collabs and appearances.

This was a good album made by Palestinians this year. Track 9 even has MC Abdul who went viral for rapping from Gaza in 2021.

I found some Palestinian grindcore a few months ago I can dig up.

That's all I have to contribute here
