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.

Even if this assumption was 100% true, it still makes sense to trust Russian communists to do their part and practice revolutionary defeatism, while we practice revolutionary defeatism here. We can't stop Russian reactionaries from the west, and Russians can't stop western reactionaries by themselves either; so the only thing you can do is not support western reactionaries. It's not that hard.

Edit: just to clarify I don't actually think Russians should practice revolutionary defeatism because the nature of the SMO is not imperialist, but I'm just saying that even if you supposed that it was, the action that western leftists ought to take remains the same.
