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

Bored Ape Yacht Club and Yuga Labs is a very intricate crypto-fascist project by 4chan white supermacists

Here's a video essay on it. You know it's good because YouTube has completely unlisted it. It doesn't show up in the search results no matter what you search for

Fellas is it fascistic to allude to Ludwig Whittgenstein?

[–] dannoffs@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Whittgenstein is like the Bill Burr of philosophy in that taken in isolation they're fine for the most part but the people who really like them are the absolute worst people on earth.

i think if you're getting triggered by witt-heads you're probably just mad that philosophy was actually solved and again realize that you've been wasting your time.

All the Apes are algorithmically generated based on a library of features. You only need one mediocre artist to make the assets: all the other jobs are fake.

Didn't they know that they could simply use a single slurp juice on multiple apes?

[–] duderium@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

They still don’t get it.

Well I hope they get their severance packages of several JPEGs.

[–] flan@hexbear.net 8 points 2 years ago

they should pivot into AI generated NFTs instead and suck up some more of that sweet sweet investor money

Each employee was given 1000 NFTs as severance /s

And a $25 battle net gift card.

Yuga labs? Like Kali Yuga?

Fuck this timeline.
