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.

I don't see most of that low effort "you'll get the wall" type stuff as people trying to spread an ideology. They're trying to make it look like they want to spread it, but there's essentially no genuine effort.
It's not an actual "plan" to spread communism, its just extremist rhetoric meant to divide people and cover up their true intentions.
I suppose I disagree in that I think they do want to and are dumb enough to think that their methods are effective at spreading communism, it seems we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
Fair enough. Maybe the truth is that there are fewer shills and LLMs than I think, and more than you think.
That's usually how it goes, somewhere in the middle, you're probably right about that.
