badposting is a comm where you post badly


This is not a !the_dunk_tank@hexbear.net alternative. This is not a !memes@hexbear.net alternative. This is a place for you to post your bad posts.

Ever had a really shitty bit idea? Joke you want to take way past the point of where it was funny? Want to feel like a stand-up comedy guy who's been bombing a set for the past 30 minutes straight and at this point is just saying shit to see if people react to it? Really bad pun? A homemade cringe concoction? A cognitohazard that you have birthed into this world and have an urge to spread like chain mail?


Rules:

  1. Do not post good posts.
    • Unauthorized goodposting is to be punished in the manner of commenting the phrase "GOOD post" followed by an emoji that has not yet been used in the thread
    • Use an emoticon/kaomoji/rule-three-abiding ASCII art if the rations run out
  2. This is not a comm where you direct people to other people's bad posts. This is a comm where you post badly.
  3. This rule intentionally left blank.
  4. If you're struck for rule 3, skill issue, not allowed to complain about it.

Code of Conduct applies just as much here as it does everywhere else. Technically, CoC violations are bad posts. On the other hand: L + ratio + get ~~better~~ worse material bozo

Okay so basically gold but especially silver are having literally trillions of dollars pile into them rn. Mango cheeto has pissed off the allies with the Greenland remarks and the dollars strength is massively sliding downwards. Europe is selling off us bonds en masse and everyone is scrambling to replace their monopoly dollar money with metals

8 days ago the dxy(strength of the dollars) dropped 1.5% in about an hour and it’s continuing to get pieced up. The value of the dollar is down 3% in literally about 2 weeks. Silver itself had about 800 billion dollars flock into it today. For reference the largest single day stock of increase of all time was 300 billion into nvda about 2 years ago. That’s how bad this shit is getting.

China is buying the fuck out of silver and it’s basically joever for America. Basically buy silver and hoard it if u want America to collapse lol. The next few days are going to get wild. The price of an ounce of silver was 40 dollars 6 months ago. Now it’s 120…. That’s 4 trillion dollars man. Lmao

Edit: oh and here’s why this matters. Basically everything is going to be even more unaffordable. Poverty will skyrocket. Instability and chaos will consume America. Oil will no longer be traded in dollars and American global influence will wane.

My friend in Sydney who (still) regularly does cocaine swapped from using an American bill to a non descript short metal tube. It's so Joever.

China is buying the fuck out of silver

Some things never change

Explaining the jokePre-Industrial Revolution, China imported silver from Europe in huge amounts (it was basically the only thing Europe had that China wanted) to mint into currency

Only a matter of time until it’s 1:1. Lmao

Damn this country. I had a bunch of silver that I had been collecting over years. But I had to sell everything because living in said country requires extracting more money from me.

[–] fort_burp@feddit.nl 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ghouls call that "value moving to stronger hands" and it's disgusting.

[–] MineDayOff@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They always got to frame bleak situations as good actually

True lol reminds me of this.

In this brief post, I hope to clear the ground by proposing two simple rules to which neo-liberalism can be reduced. They are:

Rule #1: Because markets.

Rule #2: Go die!

Summarizing, the rules do not apply in the following two contexts:

Invariant #1: The rules of neoliberalism do not apply to those who write the rules.

Invariant #2: The rules of neoliberalism do not apply in the world of the 0.01%.

Both have impunity[2]. These asymmetries will become more interesting shortly.

Like, this is actually good, you know? Dedollarization is the only way to stop Trump. Trump can literally print infinite dollars through the federal reserve, and he can pay as many ICE goons as he wants to, as long as he has money. The only way to take the money-printing machine away from Trump is to basically make the federal reserve and therefore the dollar worthless.

Didn't gold and silver dipped enormously yesterday?

[–] Trenbeloneysandwhich@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)
