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

Ya'll need Marx
Honestly that's still better understanding than 95% of chuds and libs who are like "gommulism is when no fud"
Listen, I'm all for dunking on shitlibs, but if someone's literally asking for reading recs on communism, I think we should at least try and give them something. Maybe I'm just being naive or my sealion detector is bad or something, but this to me seems like a good faith request, even if it's very ignorant.
Hexbear too dunky sometimes
That's such a cute emoji. I need this energy holy shit.
That was a painful 2 sentences to read.

I replied and offered a couple works I think would help, we'll see if anything happens

Have you watched Yellow Parenti? It's a great primer.

Nice! That's a great book on demystifying the USSR, shining light on what it actually was like, and why it actually collapsed.
That's an excellent start, I love parenti
You should also watch the yellow parenti lecture:

That's a fantastic read and works pretty well as an intro
