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

He wants so badly to be a poster

It's all he wants in life. Billions won't do. He wants to be dril

I have a theory that you need to be a very insecure person to continue accumulating money once you have more than you and your family could ever spend. It explains why billionaires aren't happy being billionaires, they need to be famous as well. Elon can't be happy being the richest man in the world, he needs to be a right wing thought leader, he needs to be the memelord.

Same shit for famous insecure people. The Rock can't be happy being rich and one of the most famous people in the world, now he needs to be a business leader. Jerry Seinfeld can't be happy being a billionaire and famous comedian, he needs to be a successful filmmaker. Kanye can't just be an artist and rich, he needs to run for president.

Interviewer: Mr Musk, what do you say to allegations from your own family members that you're a narcissist and an abusive father?

Elon: You see, I like my memes "epic*. Do you know about epic memes? It's a new trend on the internet. Epic memes are like dank memes, but dank memes tend to be bad on purpose, and they're good. But epic memes? They're the best. Consider the meme of Jeremy Clarkson comparing those 2 non-Tesla cars.

Like, a dank memes would be like a frog on a bike [sic] informing you that it is Wednesday. Useful, because I work such long hours at X/SpaceX/Tesla that I often forget what day it is. But an epic memes would have me owning a communist followed by a panel of a stick figure captioned "like a boss"
