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

This definitely happened. I know when I am hanging out with my gang buddies we always make sure to do our drugs in the middle of the street outside incredibly well surveiled corporate office parking structures.

When you're colored you can just swagger right into the drugs den that's blocking the techbro science factory, pants drooping around your knees, and say "yo, whassup. One drugs, please." billionaire-tears

I missed your very very specific posting style man, glad you're back.

A gang doing drugs on a street outside of a parking garage attached to Twitter, a very real thing that happens.

[–] [email protected] 42 points 2 months ago (2 children)

I wonder if any of them had nunchucks or a really cool headband.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 2 months ago (1 children)

They were armed with rocket launchers (cool!) and flamethrowers (extra bazinga cool!) but they were very menacing and non white (bad!) trust me on this one, it's for real!

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

A gang that announces to Elon and the security staff that follow him, that they are in fact a gang.

Drug gang did a much better job of it than Laura Loomer.

It's drugs when it's gangs. us-foreign-policy

It's "nootropics" when billionaires are K-Holing themselves into temporary escape from being loathsome pieces of shit that are hated by ex-wives and children alike.

Scary street drugs done by thugs us-foreign-policy like weed when it isn't for a rite of passage on the Joe Rogan Experience billionaire-tears

Billionaire vampires K-Holing themselves while dishing out designer drugs that evade codification because they're primarily used by Silicon Valley sex pests for mind control attempts on their "pets" melon-musk

Bro you are a billionaire. You have comical amounts of money. You could retain 100 fully armed knights with a stipend of 10 million dollars per annum, each, forever. How, how, HOW, do you not have your own muscle?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 2 months ago (2 children)

For someone as obsessed with surface level cyberpunk aesthetics as Elon is, you'd think he'd at least hire some LARPers to pretend to be Arasaka ninjas and guard him.

We really are living in cyberpunk-without-the-cyber, we don't even get the cool cyborg cops kicking our doors in.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 months ago

See his grand vision that he posted on Twitter for the future of Mars?

A fucking highway. With cars. With a red background.

Billionaires don't have much imagination. It's all yachts and private jets and abusing children on remote islands. epsteingelion

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

least hire some LARPers to pretend to be Arasaka ninjas

shit has any movie done this yet? a traditional build up of these HARD CYBER NINJAS and then the hero smacks one of them and the cosplay armor shatters and the rest of the bodyguards immediately back off

He’s deadnaming his own company

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You are correct, but I think X is the deadname.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 2 months ago

By doing the twitter/X thing he’s admitting that X is a horrible name that can’t stand on itself.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 2 months ago

We're all looking for the guy who made adequate housing unaffordable and a society so bad that people do drugs to forget about it for a bit

E~L~O~N: Wow a cyberpunk future would be so cool

Also E~L~O~N: A GANG was doing DRUGS near me

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 months ago

Even this man knows X is fucking joke.

He didn't have his Cyberguards execute them on sight? Skill issue.

Elon, gated.

"People doing drugs"

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If they're doing drugs why would they be interested in you folks? Do you have more drugs?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Oh Elon probably got a whole pharmacy worth of drugs on him

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago

If only Gaddafi could have been around to funnel money to Drug Gang

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 months ago

Nevertheless a USian politician will personally read this and increase the cop budget for another couple million.

You know, to stop the drug smoking gangs in front of the oligarch's corp office.

One time a guy was smoking crack or meth or whatever standing right behind my car as I was trying to back out of a parking spot, I politely asked him to move so I could leave and he apologized for being in the way and stepped aside

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sometimes meth addicts, the ones with the distinctly broken teeth, would rummage through my trash back in CA.

I approached them a few times, told them it's fine to look for stuff to recycle/sell, but to please not make a mess.

For the most part that solved the problem until someone else needed to be told later.

Skill issue.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

Our local addicts/dumpster divers are pretty chill about not making a mess. About the only time you can tell they've been around is when a trash bag is torn open but still inside our dumpster.

It's the lawncare companies with their fuck loads of grass clippings and tree limbs, and the HOA pieces of shit that drive across town to the poor neighborhood to offload all their giant ass cardboard that they can't even bother flattening, or like just large pieces of furniture and mattresses, that piss me off.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Here's a picture of one of the gang members, DISGUSTING. Who's going to keep our white children safe?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

i'm starting to think elon didn't even walk up to them to ask politely if they'd kindly stop blocking his egress

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

B-but they were urban and scary.

nevermind the fact that there's a high likelihood they were doing fent and no threat to anyone. If the story isn't completely made up that is

And the use of the word "gang" here is really peak white south african. Or just peak racist I guess. 4 people hanging out together on the street = gang.
