Seeing mega corporations and nobody else jumping on the metaverse has me convinced that its been planned for a while. Same with NFTs. There’s no organic support for these things among normal people, not nearly enough to invest so much money, but media keeps pushing it.

i’m sure if you attended the right industry expos and conferences they were talking this shit up.

NFTs are stupid as hell but they imported their enthusiast community of aspiring scam artists/rubes from the regular cryptocurrency space, and i predict they’ll stick around at least until the US economy finally collapses.

I honestly cannot get over the middle age white guys in the reply who are like “ugh well I don’t see how this is more skeumorphic than a drop down menu in a web app”

And it’s like… buddy you’re missing the forest through the trees.

Your first instincts seeing that video should be how you’re going to organize your family against militias of child soldiers trying to sell you food made out of bugs

Create post

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
