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.

"Started" implies that one has moved lmao
For me, it was gamergate
damn goat, never saw that coming
There's a special kind of pathetic liberal that already comes with a pre-scratched mask.
self-aware?
haters will say it's unfairly cropped
When someone tells you who they are, believe 'em ig
This user's post is so wrong.
This is a neoliberal that's skimmed the place a few times. Nothing more.
I started as alt-right, realised I actually like queerness. Then I went communist, realised murder is childish and how much I was being played and then decided to do my own thing.
Literally nobody in the left WANTS murder. We're just not naive enough to think that the transition of power will ever be allowed to be peaceful. We'd love that, frankly, but every time that's been tried it has resulted in millions of communists being murdered without any means to defend themselves. The means to defend ourselves are necessary and we expect violence to be necessary because the ruling class will not allow a peaceful transition. That's NOT being pleased with the idea of murder at all. It's just understanding that peaceful revolution is not really allowed for what we want.
Was it alt-right or communism for you?

So they started with embracing hate, then embraced communist aesthetics (presumably to be edgy while not understanding the communist analysis), and then finally, they decided that the status quo where murder happens conveniently mostly out of sight of the imperial cores and everything stays the same is best, because all those people resisting the empire are upset for (some reason)?
...the OP called murder childish? i literally did not read any of the surrounding comments this person made in the thread that is basically as dumb as the entire paragraph of bullshit spewed out preceding it
RIP bozo, enjoy your reindoctrination into capitalist realism via your brainwormed therapist, and do all young people a favor by never speaking in their presence again>
Right? Like no one is telling you that you have to wreck your mental health by focusing all your energy into how fucked we are but dont live in delusion. Especially when younger people are going to face the consequences.
radicalizing the youth
The only proper ideology for youth is self-congratulatory atomized nihilistic selfishness, where identity is purchased on a subscription basis one consumer product and one Twitter account flair emoji at a time.
Yeah hexbear should be more like the rest of the internet where russians, africans, chinese or anyone with a bit of melanin be subject to blood poison rhethoric and the suggestion of nuking undesirable countries are seen as a joke. And genocide is justified because "they were not angels".
WAIT YOU HEXBEARS ARE TANKIES????
sorry you had to find out this way, i actually just drove a tank over 3 orphanages last night while caressing a statue of stalin cackling manically and i'm planning on trying to go for my personal record of 5 tonight and nobody can stop me!!!
Projection:
of course you dont feel like you imported a sense of community, you guys directly imported as much of reddit culture as you could, including the fearmongering over tankies
first we were acused of "love bombing" now apparently we are an abusive partner and groomer of children lol
this is like the friendliest place on the internet (as long as you aren't a chud and are open to leftist thought)
we do have struggle sessions but i stay out of them (and they seem pretty rare these days)
If you're younger on this site:
STOP liking
STOP liking
DO NOT believe in the red-brown alliance
AND DO upbear my posts
This isn't , this is 1985. This is forward.
Tbh Ive seen a lot of former chapos/dirtbag lefties go the lib social dem route. I cant imagine why besides some sort of copium to avoid realizing just how fucked everything is right now.
Caring about other people and being willing to make sacrifices of material comfort for their sake scares a lot of fairweather leftists into being succdems. They dream of magical northern European paradises that make the cruelty invisible and distant.
Personally I love to stare into the gaping maw of destruction every day
It's all treatbrain. The Westoid brainpan cannot cope with the idea that avoiding annihilation might require living near a brown person and eating more beans.
150-200 users
Huh you don't say?
So that was a fuckin lie.
Pretty sure this is one of the most active instances in the entire fediverse despite these nerds trying to scare people away from us through unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander.
the number of active users dwindled down to around 150-200
Hexbear is the Yan’an of r/chapotraphouse’s Long March apparently.
Only a Dunbar's Number worth of active users. Damn, I bet they all know each other and have some degree of social intimacy, unlike us cool dudes in Lemmy who shout endlessly into the void of anonymity.
The real trick is to not take any online community top seriously, whether you like it or hate it.
Failing that, don't post.

what about the community bottoms?
I have a lot of criticisms that I both do and don't share regarding this shithole website, which I have been on since day one (not this account), but not once have I seen people cheer for the deaths of Ukrainian civilians. Off-duty soldiers? Yeah, probably, but those are still soldiers.
As a Hexbear who is rapidly approaching 30 (oh god oh god), I agree with them and think we should ban any poster under the age of 18 sorry Blake
i know this is a joke but I'm glad hexbear actually takes underage comrades seriously, our societies are extremely ageist and i think it's a good way of combating that.
I've had students in class that were both smarter and better read than some of the faculty around me.
