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

This guy made
he didn't do shit except pay others to do it while slapping his name on it and collecting the lucre.
Youre right of course.
I admit I also say "(billionaire grifter) made" quite often and have to catch myself too.

The Steve Jobs model of disruptive innovation.
Um, excuse me? I don't see you creating jobs? Pick yourself up by the bootstraps, you're just jealous of his intellectual vim and vigor.

It had a crew of 10 people and 12 passengers, the Italian coast guard said. A sudden fierce storm had battered the area overnight, and struck the place precisely where the 56-meter (184-foot) British-flagged Bayesian had been moored.
Holy fuck he named his ship the Bayesian? Peak 
absolute uncritical support to comrade freak storm.

The Disruptive Innovators of the world continue to demonstrate how repetitive and dull they really are with the same tired boring uses of their lucre. 
Lynch, who was acquitted in June in a big U.S. fraud trial
There’s no acquittal where he’s headed 
Poseidon demands more sacrifices, his hunger for the flesh of the rich is great.

I ask because a superyacht I assume has support staff/victims/etc on board to feel bad for, if it was just this guy and his ilk its 
I'm not a boat expert, but that mast height for the size of the boat looks very capsizeable
That depends on the ballast, but the greatest danger is that all the winches on those big boats are electric, meaning that if something breaks the sail(s) get(s) stuck and the best case is you get rescued and lose the ship. A booj problem to have indeed
Or they attempted a backflip and it went wrong
Comrade Storm from the X-Men summoned a water spout and sank it.
Down came the Storm and flushed the bazingas out 
Didn't this exact same thing happen in the Wolf of the Wall Street movie?
I... will not die... sober!

Real Robert Maxwell hours
The "Lady Ghislaine" didn't sink though, Trump ended up buying it after Robert Maxwell's death iirc
"magnate" is such a pretentious word lol.
How about GURU 
killed by a waterspout on a whole big ass sea
like you can just move before it meanders its way to you at 3 mph
a tornado at night is functionally invisible, especially if it’s rain-wrapped and there are no arcs from breaking power lines. At best you can glimpse it in brief flashes when lightning silhouettes the funnel, like something out of a horror movie.
yeah i know. they were moored too was just doing a bit
been on a tornado kick anyways been watching lots of vids was just imagining one of those sedate EF0 equivilant non-torndaic waterspouts wiping out a big boat
Wait a second I already saw this movie.
