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

It bears repeating that there is no Nobel Prize for economics. It's a fake prize that they added after the fact to add credibility to a fake science.
The "Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel" is awarded by the same committee as the actual Nobel Prizes though, so it's close.
But yeah, Nobel explicitly said not to have a prize in economics.
The prize is real insofar as they award a prize, but it’s a little like if Netflix paid the Motion Picture Academy to award an Oscar for Best Streaming Service.
