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 chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them.

Terminally unserious understanding of history and scale, the comparison in-and-of-itself trivializes the Holocaust i-do

Maybe bordiga-despair had a point about Popular Fronts…

In seriousness, I do find this whole thing started by D*stiny pretty telling about how eagerly libs just copy-paste low-hanging “gotcha”s, especially since they feel threatened by an increased ”tankie” presence on social media. Anything to surprises that feeling emanating from cognitive dissonance a bit longer.

There’s no real honest conversation to be had with people who will use anything and everything to prove the USSR was Red Nazi Germany while also dismissing appeasement and outright support from the capitalist world (as well as their own imperial ventures) as oopsies.

Poland and Finland in particular being brought up is also pretty hilarious since both were right wing illiberal regimes engaged in their own “nation-building” efforts.

like i know these people are technically meant to be our allies because they don't own the means of production, but how the fuck do you spend more than my family's annual income on fast food? how are we meant to find common ground with people who are able and happy to do this? visible-disgust

edit: turns out this is a repost. sorry. but still, i standby my disgust

The Communist Manifesto? Is that a video game?

Leon Trotsky? What's his Twitter handle?

Antonio Gramsci? Did he invent Instagram?

“Prosperous” is when your citizens leave in droves to do menial work in England and Germany but magic line goes up. “Democratic” is when your government cares more about hosting NATO (and placing fines on critics) and oppressing gay people than getting your needs met.

The hilarious thing is that this isn’t a Cold War map but one of gay marriage approval (if the United Germany and split Czechoslovakia didn’t tip you off).

Critical support to French Rose Twitter Guy who lives rent-free in the heads of shitlibs and NAFO-heads

Before you even think about "oh but they were just poor volunteers" or some shit lib excuse, even the segment which is clearly trying to play both sides here the historian interviewed here says

Before 1945, Taiwanese are Japanese when our country was facing war and disaster we as citizens had to contribute our efforts to figth the foreigners. The US and UK fought for their ideology, Taiwan and Japan also fought for our national ideology.

Yeah just which ideology was that mr random dipshit historian? Well at least you admit it lol.

Also #2 don't even begin with "clean Warmach" bullshit nazi shit "oh but they were just technicians so innocent". At the very least you should agree you don't build monuments to nazi collaborators yeah?

Yeah basicaly, this is the absolute perfect time to build a pro-Japanese fascist WW2 memorial huh?

Another reactionary who uses "psychology" to push their views. What's funny is Grande doesn't even have a background in psychology at all, but instead counseling. It reminds me of movie "analyst" reactionary Rob Ager, who also uses psychology, but as a way to back up his movie theories despite having a background in social work and not psychology.

In this video, he compares Antifa to reactionaries who believe in lizard people and says people in Antifa have paranoia, narcissism, antisocial personality disorder, neuroticism and arrogance amongst others. What's funny is Grande says Antifa isn't really organization with a leader, but than immediately switches gears and diagnoses it like it is.
