In the same time they're claiming Algeria is woke and sent a trans woman, they also claim Algerians are backwards who beat up women.

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

Uh the Harry Potter books and movies are not super high levels of art or anything but I disagree with this. "Art" is not a superlative. Bad art is art. And you don't need to be saying something super deep, whether intentionally or unintentionally, to be art. (Also art is subjective and you can find deep meaning in seemingly shallow things, the reason why I dont have time for people trying to do that with Harry Potter right now is because it gives money to the face of the transphobia movement, not because I think theyre wrong to do so).
From what I've gleaned hearing leftists here and other places discussing it, it works as a lense into the brain of libs in that they oppose fundamental change to solve problemn and are perfectly fine with the same shit system as long as the right person is in charge.
