Is this also in reference to the bazinga-powered on-site price gouging that's starting to come into vogue in numerous grocery stores?
Opposing that makes you a communist. If that was so, that'd be a lot of new communists.

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

I expect plenty of brunch liberals to look down their wine-sniffing noses at everyone else and say "just game the system by using apps and special membership deals to get cheaper prices (that are still higher than they used to be). Skill issue!"
Fuckin hate the homework society libs. Instead of just doing things, you make people waste time with homework. Yes I can get groceries cheaper if I buy them at four different places. But that's a bullshit society.
"homework society" is a great descriptor, I've always had trouble verbalizing why shit like this bugs me so much in a pithy way, I'm gonna use this
Yeah. I mean, it's fundamentally the
bullshit, but I feel like homework also accurately describes it. 401k is another great example, where you're expected to become a market genius to maximize your retirement.
