"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"

Welcome to MoG!


Meanwhile On Grad


Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!


What is a Tankie?


Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of biased source)


Basic Rules:

Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. — Basically, don't be a dick.

Hate-Speech — You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.

Apologia(Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.

Revisionism — No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.

Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.

You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.

Wow. Just universally equating all Arabs to one another. So, to you, there’s no difference whatsoever between individual Arabs, they all believe and act exactly the same, all over the world? Doesn’t matter who specifically did the things you’re claiming, they’re all guilty?

Quite possibly the most blatantly racist comment I’ve seen to date on Lemmy. And you have the audacity to call out others here.

I hope you do some serious introspection before speaking on this topic again.

This guy is pretty fucking racist in general. Clearly he doesn't understand that the actions of countries doesn't represent the actions of people. He said this about Russians too. (I support Ukraine but it's not okay to hate Russians despite their government) with his "logic" none of us are free from sin, yet he'll complain if you treat him as such.

How he is not banned off this platform, I have no idea.
