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

Did this guy hear about the Dagestan shootings and really think β€œIf we didn’t do this, we should have”?

[–] Tunnelvision@hexbear.net 31 points 4 months ago

Are we sure Fehlinger is a real person and not a bit? Does he actually do anything other than post dogshit takes on twitter?

[–] TheWurstman@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

No dude some people in Austria are generally this fucking stupid

IIRC the US didn't arm the Taliban, but they did fund the Madrassas that taught them. They were arming the Northern Warlords and the Mujhadeen. The Taliban came after the Soviets left and mopped up the infighting warlords as the Taliban was the only group with a coherent ideology.

Anyways minor pedantry for against an already stupid point.

I fucking hate these people. They keep doing the same dumb shit again and again. They never learn. Capitalism and imperialism is a death cult.

Isn't this kind of a dead end anyway? Chechnya under Kadyrov has been quite stable, with a lot of the armed opposition essentially brought into the fold. In addition, they achieved a lot of their resistance aims and were given much greater autonomy already.

The remaining Muslim minorities aren't particularly concentrated or organized, I don't think.

[–] Black_Mald_Futures@hexbear.net 22 points 4 months ago

Yeah let's destabilize A NUCLEAR POWER because those extremists won't ever HAVE THOSE NUKES AFTERWARDS good thinking conrad

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago

You have already. In pretty much every country and every conflict that borders Russia.

In fact, you've gone so far as to start hiring random, war-broken terrorist day labourers for a pittance to do mass shootings and arson against civilians.

What possible additional groups could you find to fund and arm?

Oh, he's one of these racists who believes every Muslim person, including those just living their lives in Russia, is a secret potential terrorist isn't he? And that they should harness that.

I ran in the Boston marathon after eating a whole pizza. Worst mistake of my life peter-running

[–] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

Yes. The pressure kept building up and I eventually exploded

[–] CommCat@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago (1 children)

What makes you think the CIA isn't already arming them?

[–] sexywheat@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago

yea

Aren't they already? (ISIS attack in Moscow earlier this year)

[–] FunkyStuff@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago

[–] plinky@hexbear.net 14 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

[–] ReadFanon@hexbear.net 12 points 4 months ago

Go ahead, Gunther. Arm the Chechens. Kadyrov will appreciate the support.

[–] TheWurstman@hexbear.net 10 points 4 months ago

The worlds favourite Austrian

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

Best keep supporting Navalny as well >.>

[–] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 7 points 4 months ago

Is this a bit

[–] Mindfury@hexbear.net 6 points 4 months ago

Arming the Dagestanis will surely have no consequences whatsoever

in unrelated news, I can't believe Khabib Nurmagomedov shot Dana White

[–] lil_tank@lemmygrad.ml 5 points 4 months ago
