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.

Gamergate was a psyop to make the suburban soccer moms become the standing authority on what constitutes a “good” game. I see no evidence against this.

It’s all part of the WASP obsession with the entire world being a boring, sexless mess.

It’s all part of the WASP obsession with the entire world being a boring, sexless mess.

It's even more contradictory than that: Burgerland is both sex-averse and sex-obsessed, so there's this paradoxical clash of Puritan ideology and coarse hedonism with a hearty helping of misogyny and fetishizing otherfied and "lesser" people.

Sex is supposed to be forbidden, sensuality repressed, and so what percolates out is basically the fucked up shit in the average fundie community.

It's that way with freeze-gamergaters: they want constant bland vanilla horny portrayals of Lara Croft but get really mad if Lara Croft is a lesbian with an active partner, for example.

Was thinking about how all these woke dei gamers are probably also masturbation obsessed "porn addict" nofap weirdos. "Girl not hot!" And then "omg how do i stop having erections ever?" In the same hour.

It's a very real and very absurd ideology, and I've known and even roomed with self-described "NoFappers" that bragged about their porn and their "retention of fluids." The claim was that being horny without getting the catharsis of orgasm "increased their power level." By that it made them aggressive sex pesty assholes. kombucha-disgust

It's so ubiquitous that it's an actual TV Trope called sex is evil and I am horny.
