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.
They need to touch serious fucking grass. Ratio'd the fuck out of them when they tried to take an Ultra-Maoist stance on why Socialism With Chinese Characteristics is Capitalist. The best part was that it was on a Lemmy.World World News anti-PRC thread filled with racist Xi caricatures and other nonsense, once they realized I knew what I was talking about they gave me a warning not to troll other commenters in bad-faith again (lol). Even the libs seemed to side with me there, lmao
Legitimately think they are seriously struggling in their personal life, they've been malding in nearly every comment for the last bit. I kinda pity them.
He does struggle with a lot of personal stuff. Health/disability issues. Medical cannabis to cope with chronic pain.
Before he was a mod I used to chat with him quite a bit on my lemm.ee alt.
pronouns
I've seen a picture of him. Very masculine presenting, so I assume he uses he/him pronounsThat's sad to hear. Hopefully the pain has a cure or treatment, but health issues are awful regardless.
I think they need to take a step back, maybe purge their online presense for a bit and come back later, do a bit of a detox.
As for pronouns, Flying Squid doesn't list them so I don't use he/him, that's just my personal stance. I know people who go by they/them or none/use name online (my fiance being one of them) despite having a binary gender, so I'd like to respect that at least unless I find a statement otherwise.
Thanks for the insight!
No I feel you on the pronouns. If I hadn't seen a picture I would use they them as well. And maybe I still should even having seen a picture.
Hey I also really appreciated your analysis in that thread. I read the comment you linked.
Thanks! I try my best, even though I'm not nearly as well read as I'd like to be, but I think I have enough of an understanding to do more good than bad in a room of liberals, haha.
