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

having a vivid vision of Hetalia-core ship art drawn by a Hindutva israelaboo portraying Israel as India’s tsundere lover being posted on the musk website and all of the replies under the post being people with Israeli flags in their bio unearthing slurs forgotten by history

India really gives off the vibe of a country that doesn't know what the fuck it's doing. In the same year its officials will claim "leadership of the global South" and then alienate the entire global south by backing Israel against Palestine.

I remember seeing a 4chan comment of some Indian essentially willing to prostrate himself at the feet of neo-nazis as long as they got rid of the Muslims

IMO Indian stands with Israel and Russia is because when they were at war with Pak & China, they were the ones that have them weapons.

India sent relief to Ukraine while buying cheap Oil from Russia. It will mimic similar strategy with this war too.

That way, they can't be blamed by any side at the end of war.

I disagree. India has always fought against Pakistan while having friendly relations with Palestine. Even before 2014, India despite having relations with Israel did show support for Palestine. India has historically showed support for Palestine especially till 1991 (rip ussr-cry). Even after 1991 and rapprochement with Israel, it wasn't like this.

India can buy weapons from Israel if it wants while both sidesing the conflict. This is much worse, Indian state is becoming ideologically aligned with Israel. It is naiive for a developing country like India to be this aligned with Israel..

India and Russia have been much more aligned in terms of UN Voting patterns compared to India and Israel. Its not comparable.
