The point of rule 8 is explicitly and in no uncertain terms to weed out dreck, shit, garbage. Low quality bait, weird anonymous bigots, bad bespoke twitter opinions, etc. The dunk tank is a place for us to post garbage takes with the goal of deconstructing the brainworms or at least having some fun laughing at a moron. There is no shortage of bad posts on the internet, but just because you saw it doesn’t mean that we have to as well. The dunk tank is a place where we can punch up together, rather than all of us getting riled up every time one of us sees one of the billion bad posts launched daily into the digital void by random morons.

If you’d like to continue getting mad at random internet strangers, you’re invited to subscribe to /c/shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml or just reply to the bad comments you see on other sites directly with your dunks.

Unless i don’t see most of them, there’s like 10-15 posts per day in dunk tank. Rule 8 would have sense if there was flood there, but there isn’t, i would say it’s opposite, 10 posts per day is shameful for terminally online nerds like we are considering the fucking stupid onion world out there.
