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

Oh yeah because as we all know attention is really helpful when you’re FUCKING DEAD, it can’t be because he was PROTESTING A GENOCIDE or something
He was young and had military experience. What he did was incrediblely unproductive given the potential he had. I dont see why his actions should be praised. All he did was fucking die while saying what everyone already knows.
I couldn't agree more with your sarcasm.
If his martyrdom shortens Israel's war against Palestinians by one day then it would save about 250 lives.
It does feel like this has affected people, the media is clamping down on this as hard as they can but it's still filtering into the public consciousness. Who can say what kind of effect he'll have? I certainly can't.
I hope it does but I doubt it.
There is too much attention on the media. Is there any national level organization to struggle against the US back genocide or are we just mad that the papers aren't left wing?
