The Dredge Tank
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.

The idea of "free electricity" always bothered me because once you build the infrastructure the electricity just kinda flows through it at all times and sometimes shutting it off costs more than just letting it flow. It's not water flowing through a pipe. Those analogs get used because it's close enough to what's going on that it makes sense when explaining things. So it's really hard to act like it's some kinda largesse. You're like "oh we aren't taking away a thing" and acting like that's giving it away. There's a difference here.
