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

MODERATORS
Now that I read that thread I get what you're saying. I thought they were making the point that you don't know how things would go down if you did succeed in killing Hitler, it might do nothing, is fair.
But the counter to that just being
, when we know that less than nothing would've changed was funny. They clearly just worked backwards from saying "assassinating politician is bad" and then couldn't admit they were wrong when it came to Hitler.
They simplified killing Hitler to the trolley problem and decided to definitely not ever pull the lever, and instead just hope the lever pulls itself.
Yeah the actual solution would be killing Hitler and then every single one of his predecessors.
