"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.

I can understand resistance.
But rape isn't resistance.
This is apologia and not allowed. You can't just say rape is overblown, what's wrong with you?
I’m not an english native so idk if I used the phrase wrong but I meant it as in there is so much focus on one side doing it while the other side does it far more and is covered far less. I wasn’t trying to say rape is ok or anything, because it is most definitely not.
So you're unironically arguing "my dead kid is more dead than your dead kid?"
Not a good look. I'll let you off this time because of the language barrier, but don't make light or any of this stuff. Best edit your comment to remove the "rape issue is overblown"
No that’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying both sides do it, it’s just one side is covered more than the other making it seem like it does it far more, which is an unfair perspective. And yeah I might honestly just delete that comment since I don’t think I phrased it properly
