On this week this niche leftist forum was first launched (its was the 24th or 25th i think) Formed from the Chapotraphouse subreddit remnants that survived the reddit ban over the calls of violence against confederate slave owners, the first admins decided to use Lemmy as its base. Originally called Chapo.chat (ChaCha) Hexbear has grown into one of the biggest instances in the lemmyverse.
In this last 5 years hexbear has survived many diffent events from numerous struggle sessions, mod clique-users conflicts, wrecker incursions from other instances and sites, this image 
, a decent amount of fedidrama with other instances and the domain crisis, we still thrive with over 5 million comments and 375k posts.
I still continue my dictatorial rule over the general megathread for now over 4 years now, this time locked in the chapo comm so it can be more easily moderated, c/indigenous has now grown to 750 subs which im very happy plus now i take care of the empoc mega which has been pretty chill so far.
I still really enjoy the fedidrama, it fun to see all the fedilibs always thinking about hexbear despide the fact that they are on defederated instances and they can ust ignore us, we live rent free on their minds

I'm guessing its pretty zionist biased, but is Munich worth a watch?
Worth a watch? Eh. Maybe. It's definitely zionist biased. Depends on what you want out of such a movie. It has been years but I recall pretty well some parts of it.
It does show the zionists doing questionable stuff in terms of innocents getting hurt though it's put down not to ghoulishness but inexperience of the operators from the very young "state" of "israel".
I suppose one could read it as them growing increasingly unhinged as the operation goes on, the whole liberal motif of the characters/audience questioning "are we becoming that which we swore to fight in our vengeance quest?" and the whole "it's complicated, good people on multiple sides for complex reasons but our side is really more justified" zionism propaganda angles are in full effect. It does show a crumb of humanity in the Arab/Palestinian side at a key point but it's mostly about the struggles of the zionist assassins and how hard it is blah blah blah and all the danger around them. It could have been more full-throated zionist propaganda but it wouldn't have been more effective if it had for pushing what they want.
The main characters are made to be standing above and outside the system they're operating on behalf of and made out to be more righteous and discerning than that system which is happier to have more blood on its hands and clashes with them at times, trying to exert more control.
Commenting cause I saw it when I was like 12 and did NOT understand the context and wanna know as well
