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.

She is a land of contrasts. On the one hand she was a shitty art critic, but on the other hand she made gamers mad.
Then again I haven't actually ever seen any of her videos, so maybe she's not a bad art critic at all and gamers were just mad that their art was treated as art

The few things I watched from her were very basic feminist takes, nothing particularly offensive or insightful one way or the other.

I remember watching and thinking, "THIS is what people are getting so worked up about?"

Definitely wouldn't classify her as "bad" from what I saw

I haven't seen any of her videos since they first came out and the worst thing I could say would be that some of her points would be like "look at this overly sexualized female character!" smuglord which, sure, might not be the best or most interesting point, but people fuckin lost it

She did a Kickstarter asking for $6000 that got over $150,000, so people ended up being extra critical.

Laughs in Store Citizen

@UlyssesT@hexbear.net you want in on this?

Star Citizen never delivered, she made more videos than she originally promised.

Except the people giving her money weren't the ones being "extra critical," and the ones being "extra critical" didn't give her any money, and also the kickstarter got posted on /v/ before it even hit its goal and almost certainly would have gone unnoticed if they had ignored it.
