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.

I have nothing to back it up but from personal experience most people do hate the idea of bad things happening to animals, it's just most of it is out of sight, out of mind. They don't think about where their steaks come from or, even if you'd point towards some monkey killing buisiness in the wild as per harambe, where the factory feed comes from. Doesn't really matter whether they're aware of the links there or not, it's just how things is.

But then Harambe isn't how things is, there's not supposed to be children in gorilla enclosures. Of course, the question as to whether there should even be gorilla enclosures also doesn't play - that's just how things is - but the child in the gorilla enclosure is where their brain starts to connect "this was unnecessary", because it's easily solved, Cincinnati Zoo just has to put up some bigger fences or whatever, job's done, animal cruelty issue solved.
