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

Lmao that comment saying all Vietnamese hate China, despite the renewed efforts by both China and Vietnam to work together
its what happens when you have a media bias in any direction. TBH, Vietnam just plays the middle man card and tries not to get on anyones bad side, because its often the winning option when you arent near the frontrunner.
Americans seem to be under the impression that Vietnamese people worship them. They like Americans because they keep pandering to the natives more than the diaspora (much to the anger of the economic elite gusanos in the US who do genuinely worship them), and they’re generally “nice” and have a shared dislike of China.
They’re not stupid enough to believe the US will be a reliable ally in any conflict nor are they interested in being a bulwark. People aren’t oblivious of these neoliberals and their boners for austerity, servitude, condescension, and imperialism
i don't know that you could ever forget the lessons of the Vietnam war
