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 chapos. Wreckers/CHUDs are allowed. If they aren't banned yet then report them, don't post them.

Sounds like Star Citizen's big spenders. There was some le steak dinner party set up by the grifting company (so the big spenders would get exclusive access to yet another fucking internet spaceship jpeg sale), and the photos that the attendees send back to try to flex showed a room full of dumpy old white men. No one I could see was younger than, maybe, 45, and they were so, so white. One even had a fucking top hat because le irony.
Hasn't that game been in development since 2010? So the dumpy 45-year old was at one point a slightly less dumpy 30-something who presumably had some disposable income to throw at a cool kickstarter game.
The le epic steak dinner was, I think, about 5 years ago. SO we can split the difference about how old the gamedads were when they got their sunk costs going.
Fuck that is bleak to think about
