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

We're so hard-up for migrants that we tried importing climate refugees from the other side of the planet, arming them, and sending them out to butcher Palestinians on our behalf. Didn't work. Those migrant mercenaries are dead now. But I hope this clears up which one of us truly supports native peoples and which one just wants to do genocide. You don't see Gaza bringing in First Nations People to do their bag carrying.

Cult vibes...

The community was founded in 1966 by a local man of Trujillo named Segundo Villanueva, who began studying Judaism at the age of twelve in 1939, while living in the city of Cajamarca. Villanueva founded a religious group called Israel de Dios ("Israel of God") that followed Jewish practices as described in the Hebrew Bible. In 1967, Villanueva took 19 families of his movement to settle in the Peruvian Amazon near Iquitos, forming a settlement called Hebrón.

Its anime vibe was decades ahead of its time so the Ichiban Commune quickly became a dusty ghost town.

One of my best friends in high school was a Peruvian-Jewish guy which I thought was an odd combination. He ended up going to [redacted top 3 college] and I always admired him.

Just checked that Wikipedia article's see also, it was an imperialism thing probably
