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.

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

My people yearn to reap where they never sowed and demand a rent even for the Earth's natural produce, and one day we shall do so free from the fear of persecution!

Landlord traditions and language might be lost forever and you're just here laughing.

one day people won't even know that "Security Deposit", "Pet Deposit" and "Application Fee" all mean the same thing: landlord income.

Wait, I thought that's what a group of landlords was called

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 year ago

I believe it's a "scum" or "leech" of landlords

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

It might be a regional dialect thing but I always thought that a group of landlords was referred to as a target practice.

Literally the first thing that anybody who follows any sort of classical liberal economics would do to make a stagnant economy function is disempower landlords, one way or the other. It is literally the largest boon to the emergent bourgeois, expanding capitalism as a functional and growing ideology, and increasing the wealth of a nation. Any nation that fails to do so must make up the deficit to pay for unproductive rent-seeking in imperialist ventures.
