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 [email protected]
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

Liberals and leftists who dislike the CCP MUST understand that if the "evil CCP" is defeated, China will go down the EXACT same path as Russia. Leftists especially need to understand what color revolutions are. It seriously disturbs me how many "leftists" absolutely DESPISE China but have never done anything to counter U.S. imperialism.
I always found it interesting that the Tiananmen Square protests happened in 1989 right when all the other "pro-democracy" protests in the socialist world did, but it didn't succeed.

Tankiest I've ever been
This is why the repression at Tiananmen Square ended up being good for China in the long run:sicko-yes:
They're just neolibs who want Healthcare.
Years of imperial conditioning leaves lots of :brainworms: .
It's infuriating because many of those "leftists" are simultaneously under the delusion that it's best for everyone involved "in the long run" (but also Russia bad lol), for both China and the World. Even way back when I was an anti-China/USSR SocDem, I thought the USSR collapsing the way it did was an objectively terrible thing.
Damn out comes my inner :meow-tankie:
