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.

Who will protect the poor copyright holders? Why won't anyone think of the poor million dollar company The Atlantic?

Banned lol cat-vibing , first time that happened to me

Idk, I could have been nicer but they just dismissed my whole point as "noise" anyway

Tone-policing and removing the posts of everyone who disagrees with you and appealing to norms while repeating the same loaded point about "author's rights" while being incapable of deconstructing what that actually means when people challenge it, pure lemmitor energy lol

They just banned me too. Such a strange goober. I genuinely hope for their sake they take me up on my offer. Just email The Atlantic's editor, say "I've been a good dog who protected your property", and ask for their share of the profits. They earned it.

For reallll, got more comments out of them in this one little crit session than in the last 4 years their acct has existed, they are reallly workinggggg lol, should get paid for that even lol

Does suck cuz there is an actual discussion to be had about the difference between getting attribution, credit, material benefits for your work vs being able to dictate the creativity and access to information of other people by enclosing an entire realm of thought or aesthetic as completely yours and completely original and therefore completely your right to dictate what happens with it for eternity or at least until a while after you die. And that these things are not the same and actually contradict each other. Cuz ofc IP and copyright law is usually used to get people to hand over their theoretical legal rights to publishing companies and mega-corps and deny them credit and benefits for their work

Paywalling your own post for someone else's benefit is such you-are-a-serf behaviour. If my dog defended my things like this I would kiss him on the lips. On the lips.
