The Dredge Tank
The Dredge Tank. For posting all the low tier reactionary bullshit that you can't post anywhere else. Got some bullshit from Reddit with 2 upvotes and want to share, post it here.
This community was created with the purpose that Rule 8 fans will just block it.
The rules are literally The Dunk Tank's rules, just without rule 8.
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.
A kid, especially a young kid, being obsessed with something doesn't mean you're the king of neurodivergence. Some kids get preoccupied with things.
Note how he says that his mum got him tested but he doesn't mention any results?
Last of all, I'm sick to death of people claiming they're autistic and therefore that means they have the R-word pass:
How are you using that term in a reclamatory fashion, Drew?
How do you, a person who has never been diagnosed with an intellectual disability, have a right to argue for reclamation over a term that is not yours to claim?
This tweet is dripping in ableism. If you want to argue that it's actually lateral ableism, whatever. He chose to go public with this stuff and he deserves a call out rather than a call in as far as I'm concerned.
i was autistic, look at this dino drawing i did
I used to work at a place where several of us were pretty close would go out to bars and shows and stuff. One friend of mine told me about how he asked another friend of ours if a third friend was autistic and he legit said "oh yeah she draws real good".
"I'm allowed to use that word, I'm 1/128th Kenyan!"
