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.
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.
Bans typically only last seven days, but repeat infractions will have longer sentences. You may ask to be unbanned.
It's awfully convenient that anything that could possibly lead to criticism of red fash is unacceptable to them.
Disempower the language of an oppressed group, and you disempower the group.
That is pretty accurate. There are a lot of key words that simply cannot be used in political discourse, leaving it almost impossible for advocate for policies that benefits the marginalized. It is a very effective method, as is so often demonstrated.
Just like "great man theory", i.e. any criticism of Dear Leader Xi.
Me [facts are making me sad]: the word "bad" is literal Nazi genocide, please switch to "plusungood."
