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

This is why flying cars are one of my least favorite sci-fi tropes. Clearest example of just replicating the present world but in a futuristic way.
On that note, apparently flying cars are one of Trump's 2024 campaign promises.
the flying car already exists! it's called the hot air balloon, and it is piloted only by those of upstanding moral character.
I really hate "futurology" that just involves the same stagnant and unjust and ruinous status quo but with more bazinga toys and maybe immortality and superpowers. A glaring example of that was when  posted a picture that he said was his vision for Mars. It was just a big many-laned highway with cars on it with a red lens filter. 
My biggest related pet peeve is liberal sci-fi. When I'm reading a book about some way far-future people in deep space and they casually bring up money, or a recent war, it just completely takes me out of it. Like, motherfuckers, how did your species survive this long? Shouldn't you have outgrown that shit by now?
In the fantastical far future, your protagonist may have a space truck and goes space trucking to pay bills.
