the_dunk_tank
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

Musk creating a Mars colony is the Star Citizen of space travel.
I think the Star Citizen grift fascinates me because it's a miniature version of the grift empire, from bullshit promises to fascist ideology baked right in.
I'm not as familiar with the Star Citizen situation aside from the posts about it on here but it's also funny how those devs are the whales for such a long time now, and yeah Musk has been getting away with it for decades.. low priced electric cars, self driving cars, sentient AI, Mars colony, you name it, the techbros were the biggest marks for it as usual
