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.

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.
This is kind of the issue with self-diagnosis. You get people like this who cynically use it to do stupid shit. It often comes across as insulting how they’ll list every stereotypical trait in exaggerated fashion.
I’ve heard some queer people try to “reclaim” the f-slur but that doesn’t seem to have really caught on.
self diagnosis is a can of worms and if i remember correctly weve had mutliple struggle sessions over it here.
Not too surprising. It can be helpful in some cases and damaging in others.
I think this is a problem with the “cynically use” part more-so than the “self-diagnosis” part. I know you didn’t say all self-diagnosis was bad, but I wanted to share a bit about mine. My self-diagnosis helped me:
I would have been happy to get a formal diagnosis, but the only person who does adult autism diagnoses within a 2 hour drive of me charges $2k for the privilege and doesn’t accept insurance. All the resources around here are for autistic children. On one hand, I was happy that my son had so many resources. On the other, it makes me wish that I’d had this revelation a lot sooner.
It's me, I'm trying to reclaim the f-slur. I'm losing, seeing as how I don't actually wanna say it 😂
Oslo's own gay choir is actually named after a bilingual pun on the f-slur, Oslo {fаgottkor|"bassoon-choir"} are so mainstream and uncontroversial that they've performed patriotic music with the Staff Band of the Norwegian Armed Forces.
I've also seen the slogan "These F####ts Kill Fascists" a few times, most famously there's that picture of those TQILA people...
Edit: So apparently even the three-letter version of the slur is removed by Hexbear's slur filter. That's maybe not ideal. Apologies to anyone using a screenreader for any convenience caused by replacing a letter with a Cyrillic lookalike.
F-slur core sounds like a music genre.
We have that it’s called hyperpop
All timer joke
