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

I've been in the posting mines for years and I've yet to receive my Xi bucks and my posts have been referenced by heads of state in socialist countries. Hello!

[–] robinn_IV@hexbear.net 46 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Xi asked if I'd like my CPC propaganda checks to be cashed out through Wii Points Gift Cards and I've been getting them pretty regularly now. I have a spreadsheet with all of the codes listed and when Nintendo finally re-opens the Wii Shop Channel I'll have every game ever released. Some might say this is a waste, but Marxism proves that the growth of the productive forces necessitates the return and common ownership of the Wii Shop Channel (negation of the negation).

Scared to mess with my Wii :|

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 14 points 2 years ago

It's easy, letterbomb is simple. Dx2cios or whatever is a little scary looking but I'm a brainlet and have done the exploit like five times. Also Wiis are cheap on the ground now.

President Xi,

I’m starving me Lord, I need to pay rent me Lord. Please send me an advance on this month’s propaganda payment.

Signed,

LibsEatPoop.

[–] Shinhoshi@lemmygrad.ml 16 points 2 years ago

Dear LibsEatPoop,

We have confirmed the request is authentic. However, you have not posted hard enough in the third month of 2024 to receive an advance payment.

Signed,

Site-CN-34

Obsession with a plot is one of the ur-fascism points. Everything bad that happens is xi or putin.

Blood money - distinct lack of blood...or money for that matter.

So socialist and Communist groups give warm wishes to fellow socialists and comrades. No evidence they are controlled by China.

They critique the empire and organize. hexbear-specter specter

Socialism with Chinese characteristics with Canadian characteristics?

China doesn't need to do anything.

Huh. Surprised it took them this long to accuse the left wing protests of being "Chinese bots"

[–] NewLeaf@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago

They waffle between Chinese and Russian. It's been going on for a while, it's not gaining traction in more mainstream spaces. Just another way of silencing dissent, except this time it's the citizens spreading it

[–] nat_turner_overdrive@hexbear.net 27 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Pre dengist socialist china returning? Or are my hopes too high? At least China hasn't been actively aiding anti communist movements lately.

That looks like Eugene Puryear in the bottom left. He's with PSL.

Kristina Wong

posting on breitbart

What is it with White dudes and their obsession with pretending to be Asian wonen.

[–] Kaplya@hexbear.net 33 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children)

Cantonese transliteration of the surname Wang.

Why is it not believable that many from the Chinese disporas and emigrants hate China?

When I was still living in the US, many of my Asian American friends who are of Chinese descent confided in me that their parents voted for the Republicans (the “party for hard-working people”) and hated the Democrats (“too open minded”).

A lot of conservative, older generation Chinese emigrants in America support anti-China policies. You don’t even have to look in America, just go to Youtube and scour the Hong Kong, Taiwanese and overseas Chinese channels and you will come across many many such anti-China videos made by self-proclaimed political commentators speaking in Cantonese and Mandarin.

[–] DyingOfDeBordom@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah but would Breitbart pay an Asian woman to do a job they could pay a white man pretending to be an Asian woman to do?
