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

It's Sargon of Akkads podcast lol, him doing pro IRA stuff to jump on the meme for popularity when he's defended the Orangemen in the past is peak grifter shit

that... figures

they weren't even doing pro-IRA stuff really they just played the song clip and then went all "now don't get too mad we don't like the IRA we'll do racist british stuff too"

is that supposed to be what he’d look like with a balaclava or simply blatantly minstrel?

Its a balaclava, its a parody of anti-thatcher-action

looking that much like a golliwog, feel like more could have been done to make that distinction clear, maybe it’s the tiny thumbnail

Considering the original image is IRA members in balaclavas,

I think these are british chuds? They literally referenced someone setting 'classic english literature' to folk music and their example of said literature was LITERALLY The White Man's Burden
