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.

Maybe it was a fever dream, but can someone confirm if there were some liberals that were discussing the progressive case for Trump when it looked like Bernie would win in 2020?

Point is, libs would rather lose to Trump than win with Bernie.

Damn those three weeks or so in 2020 were an insane high. Then.super tuesday AND COVID hit like a motherfucker.

Very possible.

I don't remember anymore but I still know Trump supporters who think Trump is progressive on economic issues.

Most economically progressive president of our lives! He literally sent us checks with his name on it. Licked the stamps himself because he loves America

I kinda remember that too. Or maybe it was just people like us prophesying based on how the UK reacted to Corbyn. A lot of that time is mired in a haze to me.

If that happened it's probably in the NYT op-ed backlog.
