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.

I remember when some liberal was telling me Muslims have this concept of lying to advance the cause of Islam, which showed how the incredible Orientals can't be trusted and have inferior cultures or something.
That's a really gross (and deliberate) misinterpretation of Islam, holy fuck. Muslims are allowed to lie and wear disguises regarding being Muslim if it's to protect themselves. Like if the SS barges into your home and asks if you're Muslim, you won't go to hell if you denounce Islam and Mohammed to prevent yourself from being taken to a concentration camp.
Huh, I didn't know that. In Catholicism at least we're taught the opposite, with Peter denying being a follower of Jesus out of fear of crucifixion being an example of a moment of mortal weakness. I think that this particular instance of islamophobia might be a result of that difference?
I think it's just a redressing of the Protocols, which says similar things [to the islamophobic distortion] about Jews being entitled to deceive goys, etc.
