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.

"They never openly called for violence"

They're the bloody KKK, they do all the time. BTW you know Gamergaters aren't going to apologize to you, right? Oh yeah, Gamergate was a time when the actual KKK called for violence on YOU specifically, now you're all buddy-buddy with them?

She still sometimes says some things about Gamergate, and all of her newfound followers try to politely defend Gamergate to her when she does.

I do not like the revisionist history of gamergate that is emerging.

Its always been there bubbling under the surface.

freeze-gamergaters have been trying to write a false version of their own history before Adam Baldwin even proposed freeze-gamergate as their movement name. Back when it was "5 Guys" (yes, even more sexual pathology innuendo) they were already instructing each other on the "ethics in games journalism" mantra.

I'm sure she courts them and boosts their signal and their lies about their own movement partially out of fear and partially out of craving for additional clout. Disgusting.

But also like, when have Pro-Palestine protest movements in the US called for violence?

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 month ago

Stone of them have probably made statements in support of liberatory violence against the apartheid regime. That cannot stand as it would disturb the status quo.

Don’t be silly, we all know that making the rich feel uncomfortable also counts as violence.

When they insisted on pretending that "From the river to the sea" or any other call for basic human dignity for palestinians was a call for genocide.

Right? Their mere existence is a call for violence, for the establishment of a white supremacist status quo. Ffs Brianna.
