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.
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
Every comment could be it's own post lmfao
They're not concerned that they're Nazis, they're just concerned about the public perception and how SEEING the nazi-ism makes them uncomfortable (but to reiterate they DO support them)
Edit: I didn't realize Hexbear blocked images like that.
”Why do they keep putting the black sun on their flags?”
Because they're Nazis, it's not that hard to figure out.
We can't see these images they need to be posted as links or embedded into lemmy instead.
With that said I can guess the content. The thing that bothers me most about the way they want them to hide their nazism, as if it's just an aesthetic, is that none of them think about what these nazis are doing out there. I don't mean that in the sense of participating in the fighting but in the sense of the war crimes these nazis are definitely performing. None of them stop to think what kind of horrors the average open nazi in america would get up to given the wartime conditions where they can get away with it. These people are reaping unspeakable horrors upon the civilians they come across.

This is literaly that homer meme again lol.
Captured [random village here], a huge day, a great victory!
Reality:
Thousands and thousands of dead, more mobilizations including women.
dozens of precious "indestructible" western tanks lost,
took so long it is now the rain season so they can't advance anymore
the target was supposed to be the land bridge to Crimea and cities like Melitopol.
Don't ask what is going on near and around Kupiansk for the last 2 months.
Don't ask what is the former name for Artemvosk lol.
A lot of the young people fighting/dying in Ukraine right now were radicalized through NED-funded child summer camps that were covered in the international press before 2022. Even the Guardian has a video on youtube about this still.
Oh shit they were NED funded??? 💀
more mobilizations including women
antiwoke tankies saying gender equality in land-mine casualties is bad!
I am bracing myself for "actually you are denying the agency of Ukranian women by..." ect
those are historical pagan symbols sweaty
It's just their culture
This is true, it's part of Ukrainian culture to display Nazi symbolism.
the pagan religion being nazi satanism and the history being from the 1930s but those are just details
It probably comes as no surprise that the 3rd Assault Brigade is an Azov spinoff. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3rd_Assault_Brigade_(Ukraine)
I saw some lib coping on twitter like “we control the village quick go grab the black sun! Come in guys the tankeez are gonna use this to say we’re nazis!” Lol
tankies will say just because you use flags designed by Himmler you're a Nazi. What if they just like him for his work as a chicken farmer
Not only would libs make this joke, they wouldn't wonder at all why these guys were carrying around that flag.
I don't see a village behind that giant nazi symbol they're holding
It looks like there were 5 houses in the village at some point which have been destroyed now.
Heeey remember when Ukraine was building space rockets for USSR? What wonders does Free (tm) Market (tm) bring!
We won this bombed out town. This calls for the Black Sun flag
How did they end up like this, anyhow? It's weird to think there isn't more animosity towards the guys who shot at their great-great-granddads or whatever.
Operation Bloodstone, Operation Aerodynamic
heckin wholesome doggo
It's wolf, so it's logical there would be wolf trap above! And uh, a sun in the back of course, no matter why it's black! Checkmate tankies!
