Shoddy reporting here, The Economist is missing a few important ones like:

Countries that I had a wet dream about China hosting a base

Countries that start with the letter C, like China, that could have a base

Countries that China definitely hasn't considered hosting a base in but might change their mind someday

Countries with enough undeveloped land to host a Chinese military base

Countries larger than a Chinese military base, and so could probably host one.

Countries that I had a wet dream about China hosting a base

came to the fleeting thought that China built a base in Liechtenstein

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
