Yep we just talked about it, we are going to reorganize and use /finance for this instead of like meme stocks and shit. Poverty finance is way more relatable
i just had an idea, what if we repurposed the shrek pornography comm into the povertyfinance comm? This solution kills two stones with one bird so the mods don't need to go through the trouble of making a new comm, and we can also get rid of the shrek pornography comm
I like the idea of a povertyfinance, but I don't like the name. c/cheapliving or c/frugal sound better to me. But either way, it's a good idea for a comm. Practical advice, not necessarily political but still compatible with leftism, and it those subreddits are popular on R*ddit.
if you're talking about the survey from a few days ago, then that figure for bourgeois is a little off.
The op of that post forgot to include duplication checking when creating the survey, so people were allowed to vote more than once. I actually voted three times, once for my actual class, and then I put in bourgeois twice trying to check if it had a mechanism to prevent people from voting more than once. I didn't think it would just let me do that, sorry about messing up the survey. It's possible other people voted more than once as well
edit: here is the survey i'm talking about: https://www.strawpoll.me/42948440/r
i am sick of every fucking time something that would actually be useful for those of us not financially comfortable is brought up, it's ignored or someone makes a dumb fucking joke about it
we've been asking for a poverty finance comm for months, never any response until TC said one would be coming soon, then she disappeared
yet the stonks comm was created in seconds
:thonk:
makes you think about the class character of the people in charge
I’m totally in support of c/povertyfinance too. Mods we need more poverty discussion comms and less terminally online comms.

What will that actually look like? Will you guys remove stonk posts and/or encourage them to another sub?
The WSB stuff was really annoying when it took over hexbear for a weekend, but since it's been contained to c/finance it hasn't been bothersome.
Not sure yet but I agree it was very annoying when it wasn’t contained
What about shoplifting? Is that worthy of a separate comm or would it fit in with c/povertyfinance?
Personally I believe that should be fine on the finance sub we we’ve yet to work it out.

it is not a shrek pornography community !shrekland@hexbear.net is for shrek fans, roleplayers, and "shrek".

those names make it sound like a lifestyle choice
Finance was supposed to be turned into poverty finance after the game stop stuff died down. Dunno what happened to thay.
I’ll put a word in for poverty finance. I agree we need one

just use !finance@hexbear.net and claim it for the people, I believe in you.
that is what I did to !shrekland@hexbear.net and I am now a moderator. my account is only 11 days old
jus sayin
no one cares
piss off
I just don't think we should be segregating comrades by class on this site. It's internalized capitalism. :deeper-sadness:
when you definitely know what words mean
I am very stupid, so it is possible I do not know words good.

my account name is shitbird, but my response was sincere, unlike my shitposting.
or maybe the out of touch pmc could actually make the fucking comm
it isn't fucking hard
