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 default to All. It’s pretty dead ngl. I went over to .world assuming that because they’re a big instance that there would be content I hadn’t seen or was interesting that I couldn’t find here. Like maybe because they’re were bigger they had more activity in niche comms. Basically the Reddit effect. No such luck. Hexbear stays winning.

See I like science memes. All others are reasonable. I haven’t seen a single “non-political” meme that isn’t innately and obviously political to me. And the generative art gets spammed all at once.

. I haven’t seen a single “non-political” meme that isn’t innately and obviously political to me.

That's the neat part about "nonpolitical" memes. They are political. think-mark

I blocked science memes when they had overtaken my front page, otherwise I like them. But it's been awhile and they deserve another go, I unblocked them

Are we still federated with dbzer0? I thought we had some thing with them a while back.

[–] AcidSmiley@hexbear.net 30 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

AFAIK we're still federated, but their admins are banned on here. In the case of Unruffled, he waltzed into the thread about whether we should defederate from his instance, was a horrible debatebro and pulled an "as a gay man, i don't think it's homophobic when you use gay as a synonym for bad and effeminate" to defend one of their banned users. He's an assimilationist respectability politics loser and it's hillarious that somebody calling himself Unruffled is obviously still malding about being kicked out of our treehouse almost a year later.

Unruffled because they stress plucked out all their feathers thinking about hexbear

[–] Frank@hexbear.net 7 points 2 weeks ago

That is very funny.

[–] mathemachristian@hexbear.net 18 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah we banned their admins but kept the instance
