At least quarantine that shit to the dunk tank.

I’m not on hexbear to spend all my time thinking about libs lol, I’m on hexbear because I like hexbear. I like the riffs, and the topics, and the cool knowledgeable users who post stuff I would never see otherwise. I’ve learned a ton here over the years, and it really feels like a wholly unique space on the internet.

    Well yeah, but on the flipside these resources that would be used for fun toys aren’t diverted away from making sure there are no homeless people, or children who can’t eat or cancer victims who can’t afford treatment and so will just die - all of which happens every day in America despite it having the resources to stop this from happening.

    Once everyone is housed and fed then PS5s and stuff will be made, but before then resources wouldnt be diverted away from starving kids so some guy could play video games.

    Like look at the gains Russia made in income equality during its existence, the moment that the graph gets to 1917 and Russia becomes communist rather than a right wing monarchy the income of the wealthiest plummets and the combined income of the poorest half of society doubles in just a few years

    Edit: but also good on you for actually reading and engaging with the people in this thread <3
