still posting in dunk tank cause it's reddit-logo but I was really surprised to see this thread get out of zionist control and have people actually talking about israeli war crimes. maybe this refugee camp bombing is a turning point???

Quick skim, but yeah. This definitely still belongs in the dunk tank. Way too many posts trying to lay this at Netanyahu's and failing to acknowledge that this runs way deeper than just one man.

Smol bean Biden is just one man and powerless to stop Netanyahu who is also conveniently the one man responsible.

I don't use reddit regularly for politics anymore so I'm unsure how this thread compares to the baseline, but most people in that thread still seem to have adopted a classic "both sides bad" approach to thinking about the ongoing genocide

oh, compared to the usual tone in /r/worldnews this thread is basically like reading the minutes of a Hamas top brass meeting

It might sound like an exaggeration to those unaware but it's the truth. You could make a bingo card for hasbara talking points and check every box in 99% of the threads. /worldnews was even getting dragged in other subs for how blatant it was.

troll farm wasn't activated maybe? I do suspect it's mostly astroturfed so maybe the guy on call is strung out on the disco bathroom floor

Well....all the comments say "it's Netanyahu's fault and if we get rid of him and the even more evil Hamas, we have a chance at 'coexistence' between Palestine and Israel. We just have to believe in democracy and kill all those barbarian terrorists! I am very smart!" blob-no-thoughts

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
