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.

US Marine shouting across the Afghan/China border "Stop doing colonialism!"

You'd blow this fucker's mind if you told him about the Mongol Empire.

Probably blow his mind if you told him the RoC apparently still claims Mongolia and big chunks of Russia as it's sovereign territory.

While the ROC held China's security council seat, they actually blocked a few new African nations from joining the UN cuz they were butthurt that they wouldn't support their claim to ownership of Mongolia.

Is kumis good I've never had it. I guess it'd be pretty sour.

I honestly have no idea. If I ever try it I'll make a post about it and try to remember to tag you.

This user is very obviously a fascist. The "socialist" in their name does not refer to our socialism, they are a nazi.

I suspect they got banned here and are very mad about it

LOL I went to their profile and it seems like they've commented on this post but it's only showing on lemmy, maybe it doesn't tell them they're banned?

Booooo, LiberalSocialist was never this cringe.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

They were, it just had to be drawn out of them. One time I caught them in an obvious lie and got an "Okay I'm leaving now I hope you heal from whatever hurt is causing you to act like this" or something like that.

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

Bummer. Dunking on them was fun

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago

Yeah if you're banned from an instance (or community?) theres really no way of knowing unless you check the modlogs.
