I love the Half-Life reference at the end. Every capitalist thinks “Capitalist Flight” is some kind of debate ending threat. In the beginning of Half Life, you go into the test chamber, it seems just another test like any day, then surprise the entire world goes completely to shit and aliens invade en mass. And that’s basically what would happen. The gateway to socialism will be opened in a way only a very costly world war could ever close again. Capital Flight isn’t a threat, it’s a gift to the working class.

I feel like it at least had the basic shape of an effective threat 15 years ago, before it became widely known how little rich people pay in taxes.

Create post

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
