I mean most of the Cubans getting called that are white themselves, including Destiny. Are you referring to brown American Cubans getting called that as well? Gusano has been stretched since its original usage to describe any foreign national that immigrates to the US and spews right-wing garbage against their countries. I’ve seen it used to describe Chinese liberals and Russian liberals.

It would be pointless to use against a fourth generation German-American who is too far removed from Germany to be a gusano. But it could absolutely be used for a German man living in the US and talking about how it’s good the US de-industrialized his country.

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
