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.

it's amazing how reddit comments never really change in tone or content. it's like facebook for people just internet savvy enough to not be on facebook

HistoryMemes is a cryptofash shithole that will ban you for posting evidence against the Nazi/Hearst lies on the 1930s Ukrainian famine

Stalin is evil! He should have sterilized their soil for Monsanto GMO soy monocrops like we are doing

Is a Dronie just like a baseline yankee-american or is it a specific type of yankee-american?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 years ago

I interpret it as specifically as people who salivate at causing mass death and mayhem, but only if it's far away and with proxies so that it's not icky. As compared to people who want American GIs with boots on the ground getting their hands dirty doing warcrimes.

I always took it to be a nickname for neoliberal warmongers specifically, obviously playing off of "tankie", and partly in reference to good 'ol obama-drone. The real funniest thing though is that the "bad guys" (like Russia) seem to have better, more cost effective drones lol.

@Quaxamilliom nice

I've been calling them "bombies" but I think that sounds better

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

there's a nice double entendre in that. If you say something counter to their worldview, you get an ad-hoc monologue
