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.

NonCredibleDefense praising the pager attack (lemmy.world)

Most Lemmy instances and comms are strongly against Israel by now. The average .world account is calling Israel a terrorist nation for the latest attack. The Zionist holdouts are still there but always heavily downvoted.

But then there's /c/NonCredibleDefense openly celebrating the attacks. Reposting reddit memes and shit. It looks like the first news of it didn't go over well (the average Ukraine supporter isnt pro-genocide either), so the mod "nuke" started forum sliding by posting a bunch of pager memes. Also those memes have a suspiciously high upvote to comment ratio.

Anyways, not much of a dredge but its interesting to see conventional social media manipulation tactics at play here.

what is NonCredibleDefense and why do people on here post about it?

[–] Shaleesh@hexbear.net 33 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

NonCredibleDefence is geopolitics/military procurement/history/news shitposting subreddit (and lemmy community) that has a very neolib/neocon board culture. It got pretty big when Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. They celebrate the deaths of actual human beings through doge memes and tend to discuss warfare in terms better suited for video games. I stopped checking in on the place some time before Prigozin did that weird attempted coup thing, they're probably even more cancerous now.

Imagine The Big Bang Theory but its a forum about imperialist mass murder.

Edit: people post about it on here because it is in many ways the polar opposite of Hexbear, a foil if you will, and therefore easy to hate on.

NATO fascists who "ironically" laugh at war and suffering. Despicable people with extreme brainworms.

People post about it because it's the Dredge Tank and we hate them.

Its far more just a herding of rootless misanthropes and wehraboos into being pro NATO shitposters like NAFO. In 2015 these would've Trump Train Pepe Posters.

Because this is the Drej Tank and a bunch of lanyard warriors giggling and high fiving each other about war crimes they can watch on CNN is a fine Drej Tank target.
