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.

Yeah, it's been a decade, which feels long, but for me it's actually good. I was a young, impressionable guy with leftist ideals, but definitely very much lacking awareness of anti-racism and feminism ideology (I still need to improve in that regard). I remember all of the hate towards Sarkeesian, the "Hugh Mungus" thing, and this fad on YT with hating on "crazy removed". Thankfully I got out of the pipeline quite fast and managed to see beyond the superficial reactionary criticism. In 10 years I've gotten a long way towards feminism, anti-racism and Marxism, and I'm hopeful for my further way in the following 10 years!

Edit: apologies for the removed word, it was a slur used against feminists back in the day. Thanks mods for making hexbear a safer space, I'll be more careful with such slurs even when directly quoting
