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.

i was for federation thinking that would made hex a part of lemmy, but apparently hex can be on lemmy and defederated from anything else. federation need to be reverted so hexbearers could keep a healthy brain cell count.

Technically we were "on lemmy" before 99.9999% of the world had ever heard of it, if we consider that lemmy is the software and federation is (as we are now seeing) an optional feature

"I am not racist...Shing Shong Ling Long removed"

[–] [email protected] 44 points 2 years ago

to be fair, they didnt claim to not be racist

[–] [email protected] 61 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Damn the hexbears are gonna be so rude and unfriendly when they get to interact with the normal people of lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 years ago

The fedeverse shouldn't fear us. They need us.

Not a single "methinks" in the entire comment. Redditors are evolving...

I really wonder what John Brown would think of us. A bunch of weird, foul mouthed people espousing economic and political systems that he might not have heard of, with bizarre hair and clothes, cheering him on.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 2 years ago

he'd probably learn that slave patrols were professionalized and organized at all levels of government and conclude that his crusade had failed

He'd think we were losers and then recruit us to be the vanguard of his war party so we would die first. I'd happily join.

All of us together add up to at least two, maybe three, competent riflepeople.

Tervell would train us into a competent slaver hit squad

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 years ago

I was just over on the 'gram informing everyone that Davy Crockett was a shithead for dying alongside traitorus slavers and that after the Mexican Army was done sending the Texans to hell they liberated two enslaved people who had been held captive by the Texans.

Imagine carrying your Reddit branded avatar over onto Lemmy lmao

[–] [email protected] 47 points 2 years ago (1 children)

And it's the default reddit-logo pfp too

[–] [email protected] 37 points 2 years ago (2 children)

okay maybe it's a good bit

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 years ago

Either it's extremely funny or ChatGPT has come a long ways because I refuse to believe an actual human being could do that unironically.

Hold up did this loser actually:

  • download the default reddit pfp pic
  • upload it to his Lemmy profile

In the country I live in China is definitely more respected than the USA.

The CCP killed all the original residents and replaced them with bots

Internationally

It's funny how libs ALWAYS take europe, north america and Australia for the whole world. It's the same assumption in every single comment criticizing China for whatever reason

[–] [email protected] 40 points 2 years ago

they don't think of the rest of us as human

ping pong authoritarian

Based. Anyone using a decadent Western handshake grip instead of a proletarian Chinese pen hold grip should be sent for 20 years of Laogai.

Shing Shing ling long removed (lmao) CCP bots

This is like if you gave a fox news boomer moonshine and asked it to do a stream of consciousness on China

Reddit proves Yakub theory may have some legitimacy.

John Brown is dead. Now is the time of monsters.

close to no respect internationally

Is that why western politicians always accuse each other of being loyal to Beijing to win elections?

It's not like I'm mad that they're saying it. It's just pathetic. Do I get mad at cussing children? Is the word so horrible to me? No, it just stops them from being more articulate. It stunts their development. If a child is taking shots of alcohol it doesn't effect my body, but it's a pitiful sight. The racism while going to bat for finance capital is just sad, comrades.
