it is more regional than you’d think because of housing and other similar expenses. I lived in a city where the median income for a person (not household) was 100k. I got forced out, and so is anyone else not in tech. I don’t want to downplay the differences here because those people are absolutely secure in a way that I am not but when a region hits that point a lot of that money is just gone to stuff that is good to have but doesn’t feel extravagant as far as luxury (i.e. housing, car related taxes and licensing, retirement funds, etc.).

The area is a great example of how the Democratic Party has no answers that materially help people without money and their policies just lead to ever increasing expenses and taxes.

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
