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.

These types get pissy over women being in video games, that wokes are "shoving ideology down our throats" and yet they will breathlessly turn around and shove their fucking maga hat car into literally everything making the rest of us suffer.

eco-friendly

The fucking thing expends at least as much energy and consequently as much carbon as a Ford F-150 susie-baffled

anakin-padme-2 we'll have a renewable energy grid before we massively increase electricity demand through EVs, right?

anakin-padme-3 "Also, climate change can't be stopped so expanding data centers for the sake of treat printers is smart. Bazinga!"

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

the most depressing thing was learning that the dozens of acres of solar farms built near me over the last few years is for planned data centers not to bolster up our local grid

oh well when the collapse comes at least i can just use the last of my gasoline to go cut down and drag one of those big municipal panels back to my house

Meanwhile, people are campaigning heavily against solar farms and energy storage being built near me, despite the fact that I live in California which is one of the best places in the world to do solar farms and energy storage.

Their reasoning? "It's not agriculture!" As if it isn't also beneficial to reduce our fucking water usage monke-rage

Won't someone think of those 6 poor alfalfa and pistachio farmers who use 85% of California's water supply at no cost on a cash crop?

It's wild that the drinking water of millions of people takes second fiddle to some billionaire nut farmers

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

one of my local solar farms had to stop expanding because locals were taking potshots at them from the woods.

they couldn't figure out who or prove it wasn't just "accidental gunfire from hunters" but they just gave up because the risk was too great

this area is mostly just forestry on old lands used for mining in the early 1900s like wtf "rural character" were these terrorists protecting. similar mindset to your Cali chuds

MFW westerners are such insecure chuunibyou that in order to even sell them on more sustainable products, you need to design the "sustainable" products to pollute so much it defeats the purpose of making them sustainable just so they can be "cool" enough.

Someone get me out of this "I-need-everything-to-be-badass" hell pika-cousin-suffering

That was exactly the appeal of Te$las to begin with according to bazingas I asked offline and in person: they didn't want a "lame" or "embarrassing" EV or even hybrid, so they had to wait for a, quote, "sexy" one. cringe

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Teslas are hideous though.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago

They are an uncool person's idea of cool.

Apart from the coupe and the cyber they all appear very similar. The model y is particularly bleh

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The model s and model 3 look fine. Everything else doesn't look great

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

The model y I find genuinely awful. I'm not even sure what the swelling point is. It's a slightly bigger Tesla but but as big as the x

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

it weighs nearly SEVEN THOUSAND POUNDS!

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago

Lol. Apparently, another big fail is that people are trying to use the cybertrucks as trucks and when they haul something hefty without tying it down it can hit the tailgate it bend it out of place so the cover doesn't close.

What a cute way to vaporize your entire family.

Is this just some dumbass lib that comes to pick you up in this shit mobile, and has a cooler with dr peppers and a thermos of shitty hot cider for you to burn your mouth on?

I’d rather play in traffic thanks.

You can eat all the shrimp you want while the sweatiest person you've ever met drives around a pumpkin patch describing race science.

That's quite the unique "eco-friendly" adventure...

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

This is where basically every weird vehicle ends up after the original owner realizes that owning a weird vehicle is really inconvenient in a lot of unexpected ways.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

"cutting edge" as in "cut yourself opening the door"
