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

just-a-theory I think they have been quietly bailing out the bubbles and crashes in real time already which is contributing to hyperinflation. They market it as a "soft landing" instesd of the inevitable full spectrum poopie which crashes reveal and thus the negative press and congressional hoopla of debating to bail this or that out. It just happens automatically. With what funds? Who knows. Just siphoning the value of the dollar out behind our backs.

This wouldn't even be a bad idea if the auto bailouts were structured in a way to actually cool down the bubbles without popping them. Hell, they could literally set up a simple feedback control system to gently lower over inflated asset prices. I would less pissed at the bazinga shit if they actually used their gadgets to even try to accomplish what they claim to want to accomplish.
