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

MODERATORS
Has this ever worked?
Has this ever not ended in the destruction of several million dollars in delicate equipment?
Don't be mean the people making these decisions are business majors they're trying their best.
Any half decent business major knows this is a terrible idea. They're thinking with their stubbornness and greed, not their academic background
It’s counter propaganda for the stock market
This really needs to be done in baby voice with an "UwU" at the end.
How hard could it be, it's unskilled labor that anyone could do, after all, the rates they're being paid were decided by the free market, which is infallible. They're being paid less, so their work is easy and anyone who is paid more could do it with ease. Ever heard of "meritocracy"?
every time i have seen this story, within like 36 hours of it supposedly happening, management returns to the table with massive concessions.
it's the panic move. everybody knows that work and responsibilities are always pushed down. disorganized workers are always getting a superior's responsibilities fobbed off on them. the majority of times, whenever i have needed a superior to cover a simple task for me as a one-off due to an unforeseen situation--ranging from an environment of agricultural labor all the way up into the lofty halls of the academy--the manager/owner/superior fucks it up. they don't pay attention when shown, they don't take notes, they fail basic time management and just completely flake on doing the thing.
either they are incompetent to the tasking or the know that if they handle it well, they will be asked to do it again. people don't rise up in organizations without learning strategies of sidestepping work or at least how to insist on better compensation and then manipulate others into getting it done.
