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

Just when I think I have seen the high watermark of Nazi whitewashing and Cold War Soviet equivocation, weeks like this come along. I am now convinced that we are a few weeks away from a Liberal saying something to the effect of "Look the Holocaust was bad, but the Nazis were just trying to liberate the peoples of Eastern Europe from Russian colonization. The Nazis were bold freedom fighters, even if they made mistakes like Judeo-Bolshevism causing them to equate the real evil of the Soviets with innocent Jews."
My US history class started its coverage of WW2 by teaching us it started when Hitler and Stalin made an alliance to invade Poland together. Which then taints your perception of everything after that.
We've gone past clean Wehrmacht and at the rate we're going through clean SS, we're like a week away from libs pushing clean Einsatzgruppen
push on right through to clean holocaust
