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.

It's sad how well this actually works on some people. So many of my liberal friends have adopted a blind "both sides bad" because of stuff like this. I don't know why they struggle with the concept of critical support, but I haven't been able to teach them successfully. Every time I think they get it, they roll back to a black and white "I just want to grill" view of things.
They don't struggle with critical support. Lesser evilism and voting for the Democrats literally is their version of critical support. What they struggle with is contexualising events into a coherent world history.
They can kind of do it for American politics, but unless they have been following world politics deeply (and looked at independent sources), their framework will be the one given to them by the imperialists, which is deliberately unscientific so as to breed nihilism.
I guess that is the core of the problem really. My liberal friends are not at all scientifically minded, so I might need to teach them the most basic forms of scientific thinking first.
