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.

When Lowtax died, Somethingawful's culture changed so much that they didn't just celebrate his death (and expressed sympathy for the people he hurt, including in his own family) but a lot of the power users there are now furries themselves.
I won't say it's "good" but it's certainly not /pol/.
I know, although the culture had started to change long before Lowtax died. Even before he was outed as a domestic abuser, SA users thought he was like some kind of useless internet landlord who collected money through the site and his Patreon while doing nothing. Turns out he spent that money on living in a McMansion and leasing a Nissan GT-R.
Most of the chuds also either left the site or actually grew past early 2000s edgelord internet humor.
Most of them migrated to 4ch!n, especially after SA banned the kiddie creeping cartoons that so many chuds crave.
The one thing I can't fault Lowtax for, getting rid of the hentai creeps was obviously the right move, and I doubt anyone could've foreseen what a massive cesspool would grow out of that.
Dumping out the toxic waste was a good idea, though the toxic waste gathered itself up into a superfund site.
