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.

Did you read the basket of goods they use? It includes a tv ffs. Apparently tv prices matter to people who have to choose which meal they skip.
The wall is too kind for these stains upon humanity
I for one am purchasing a new TV each month. It’s a staple for our household. We go out and it’s like a nice little tradition we’ve established. Then we put it in the living room, hold hands, and skip around it chanting while we burn the old one at its feet so it knows to behave.
Tv did take a huge dip in price (completely unrelated to the fact the majority of people were watching content on their phones or computer screens I'm sure) so literally every article uses them, the one thing that's decreased in price, as a comparison point to show stuff isn't getting more expensive.
The main reason TVs have dropped in price is because under surveillance capitalism the TV watches you. On a lot of models more money is made from all of the spyware and adtech that comes with TV than from the sale of the TV itself.

This explains why it's virtually impossible to buy a "dumb" TV anymore.
