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

I was wondering why they were specifically interested in CPUSA, and this clears it up. Good luck in your fight against them anyway.
Wdym?
CPUSA aren't feds, contrary to Internet rumors.
I'm not a fed. We're literally being attacked by feds.
I'm sure you aren't, I'm just saying that the central body of the org was compromised over a half-century ago by the HUAC and friends
Also, which central body of the org are you referring to? HUAC isn't the CIA, btw.
Historically, the opposite happened.
I didn't say shit about the CIA, it was all conventionally-domestic bodies afaik, like the FBI and Congressional committees. Apparently also:
By central body, I essentially mean everything "National" in their org chart.
Also, you got that anecdote from a known anti-communist academic.
In addition, if you're so sure about fed involvement, then don't react the way you do simply because I mentioned "CIA." Like, be confident. Instead, you're getting flustered and it makes you look suspicious and like you're not confident that we're a bunch of feds.
Irony of posting this alongside like four other replies.
Yeah, 'cause I've been dealing with this crap a lot and you were just regurgitating Internet rumors.
There's an edit button
Then use it.
Exactly, I was replying to that and then you came in, not specifying your position in a good manner. I'm replying to that. And I'm pretty tied to the leadership. You have not given any evidence whatsoever that CPUSA are feds.
Also, the person that's my mentor is in Nat'l lmao
In addition, why is the CPUSA being attacked by feds now?
Someone said "CIAPUSA" lmao so don't bring up the CIA.
Then don't use central body lol
Be specific.
Also, in the 1970s, they said they only had a minority of informants within the CPUSA.
And how do you explain what happened to Sam Webb?
It was not, actually.
