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
The more it is evident that the US empire is on the decline and fascism in the western world is on the upswing the less I care about sucdem liberals and their tailism.
The coming decades are going to be marked with the US losing it and it's political order's grip on countries around the world, as well as climate disaster and the immigration/refugee crisis that will follow it.
The answer to this will inevitably be fascism, but no one on the American "left" seems to be operating under this reality.
Catering only to the backwardness and comfort of the American working class and liberal sensibilities will do nothing to fight this or advance the cause of socialism without principled anti-imperialism.
The sucdems can tut-tut and go "how do you expect to build your movement" but if it's a movement of social chauvinists then it doesn't matter.
Frankly, I don't think there is any timeline where the US is saved from fascism internally as things stand.
If the Nazis are winning you should just let the Nazis into your party and then you’ll be winning too
You should also back Nazis in the opposition to play exestential chicken with the electorate where they only have a choice between good cop Nazi or Bad Cop Nazi. This is smart and pragmatic strategy that adult politicers do.
