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

A lot of their (Midwestern Marx) takes as a group are actually just fine, but the bad ones some of their members hold are just really bad, and the fact that the rest of the Midwestern Marx group allows them to remain affiliated says a lot about them.
As an example, Eddie is dismissive of concepts like landback on the grounds that it happened a long time ago, which is a really bad take. It’s made into an even worse bad take when this idea is not universally applied in his worldview. As a socialist, calling it chauvinist would probably be the nicest thing you could say about it.
Midwestern Marx is a collective, a lot of the good takes are probably not coming from this cryptofash
It's a bad collective and should be written off. They're all tailists. They constantly attack the org I am a part of (Chunka Luta)
If 10 people are sitting at a bar, and one Nazi sits down with them and doesn't get ejected you now have 11 Nazis.
Remember the fuckin rule people.
oh absolutely, no disagreement there. just pointing out we don't gotta hand it to em
okay cool I thought you were defending them like that joeysteel person.
Yes I do know midwestern marx is a collective, hence the varying pronoun use in my comment. I guess I just wasn’t clear enough about that which is my bad. I’ll edit accordingly
good edit, ty
