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

I mean, there’s a difference between having a lot of money and being “wealthy.” This sounds like an old man complaining at clouds, but look at all the rich kids or influencers decked out in Gucci and yeezys and LV. Everyone knows they have money, but no one thinks they have taste.

Billionaires and politicians wear the blandest bullshit. A slight step up from being a billboard, but no one is giving style points to Zuckerberg lol. It seems like the richer you become, the less you care about brands and looking rich. But that comes with an overcorrection where you don’t give a shit about anything but numbers.

Zuckerberg also still wears stupidly expensive clothing. It just looks plain. I get the power move he does, I like to employ that one myself to lanyards and suit people, but wearing a $800 grey hoodie that looks like a $25 grey hoodie seems even dumber to me than wearing the $800 gucyeelvly shit.
