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

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.

Most of today's communist or socialist states are all third-world countries where the American dollar is much more valuable. Yet they don't move to any of these countries and instead want to move to other capitalistic nations.
Hilarious.
They contradict themselves:
Most people who lived during communism in countries like Russia were definitely armed because people were stealing from each other.
My grand-father escaped from such a shithole during WW2, and the only political opinion he gave during family gatherings was: "fucking communists!"
Europe has many socialized countries. They have medical coverage across all EU countries.
What kind of delusional posting are you hooked on, I see you're nonsense all day
Social Services isn't just Socialism. The version of socialism Tankies want is communism.
Likewise I haven't posted in a couple of days so you're bullshitting there, my dude. :v
