the_dunk_tank
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

What did your grand uncles do for a living?
One was a crane operator and the other worked at a colhose
What did they do to get them sent to Gulag?
They were just taken one day. My grandma might know more about it
It would be interesting to know what they were charged with, I regret not getting a more detailed understanding of my grandfather's experiences while he was alive.
I'll see if I can find out, not sure if we have any documents left (if we even got any paperwork for that).
They just grabbed random people for no reason at all.
It all makes sense and contributes to the stability of society when people are punished for no reason at all.
You admittedly don't know the full story but are for some reason sure of their innocence? You know plenty of prisoners in the USSR were imprisoned for stuff you'd get imprisoned for in any country, right?
