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 [email protected]

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

Not even worst tabloids are usually this crude, and FT is supposed to be serious publication. Their asses must be on fire.

Forget about it... its like the fucking Econopist... no matter what the hell they say, this dredged capitalist society would probably take their metrics at face value and put it up in the mainstream as gospel...

anytime I see some liberal writing about how the economy is doing great and they don't understand why we think it's bad I think of this

It's a good thing that all workers experience life the same way as invented metrics

Mandatory optimism in all situations at all times is one of my least favorite parts of American culture

Also, I can say for sure that things were better in some ways 30 years ago because things like the patriot act and No Child Left Behind weren't a thing yet

To paraphrase Bill Clinton's campaign slogan "It's the inflation, Stupid."
