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 love shit like this because these dumbasses apparently think people in the past, or anywhere outside of boardrooms are motivated by making shareholders money. Like there's a reason every company comes up with a mythology about its "mission".

Fuck you, pay me.

If you want shareholders to motivate the employees, allow each employee to kill a shareholder of their choice whenever they do a good job.

Fuck this guy but tbf I read the article, he wasn’t complaining about the employees, he was agreeing it was ridiculous to think they care about maximizing shareholder value.

"We understand you don't give a shit about the company because we're making money off the lack of pay you're receiving." >.>

Capitalists are playing with fire by dropping the facade and revealing what they're all about, makes our job easier, but I don't know what the hell they think they're doing by talking like this

Unvarnished parasitism is universally revolting to the vast majority of human beings
