Documenting hate-speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse
What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of bias)
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 or any variation of Tankie Ideology. There is no justifying Genocide.
Revisionism — Downplaying or denying atrocities past and present will result in an immediate ban.
If you're violating instance rules, you'll typically be warned. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last seven days, but repeat infractions will have longer sentences. You may ask to be unbanned.
The irony that he started lemmy because he got a ban and then does the same shit on his own platform.
Power corrupts but as others have said, the joke is on them as it is decentralized and no longer theirs. They just helped start it.
I think that was intended
There's a section in the install docs about how Lemmy is designed to be anti censorship and for the people, and I think this lines up with the devs' values
This leads me to think that the dev has very good intentions, but is supremely blind to his biases.
sounds like a regular human
Yeah. Pretty much. Except his blindness is making him justify a genocidal regime.
yeah that's what I think as well
