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

MODERATORS
Tbh i find it entirely believable that your average CPC member regards Hawaiian peope more fondly than your average 
, if even just for a lack of racist propaganda as a child
Your average CPC member isn't in charge of PRC foreign policy though
The people writing these articles typically aren't either
You know what would really own the chinese and russians? Not neglecting Hawai'i.
This is like when Iran complained that LGBTQ-rights were used as a wedge issue by the US to foment revolution.
Help! China is doing a propaganda against widdle cinnamon roll America by checks notes telling the truth.
The US Occupation of Hawaii is illegal by the way.
The US doesn't commit crimes, we pass laws to make them legal post-facto
the shame away.
Oh this is one of my favorite lib narratives. Pointing out when the US does a bad thing is ENEMY PROPAGANDA. See also: pointing out when the ENEMY does a good thing is ENEMY PROPAGANDA.
Didn't this also happen in the UK when 
got hold of Conservative plans to sell out the NHS to US insurance firms
IIRC the conversation ended up just being about how the document was leaked by rUsSiAn HaCkErS and discussing its contents would be playing into Putin's hands or something
You don't think we care about Hawaii, huh? Then explain how a native of Honolulu got elected president. Next thing you'll tell me this country has a racism problem, to which I will again point to Obama.
You know what country never elected Obama? Racist China. The very racist Chinese are trying to take Obama's homeland because they hate your faded bumper sticker from 2008.
All Native Hawaiians are tankies
US Navy fuel depot poisoning the drinking water?
Sounds like some soviet tankie propaganda.
right-wing narrative
That narrative? The government should be helping its citizens. I am a very smart liberal and I definitely don't just categorize things as bad/right wing and good/liberal.
It's kind of fucked up how the overton window in the US has shifted so far to the right that the mere idea that a government should ever help its people is foreign to them.
government helping people is soviet ideology. the government should keep its corrupt bureaucratic hands out of the free market and its magical ability to innovate solutions (don't look up what corporate subsidies are)
