"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.

They certainly don't.
I love it though since there's always raving about 'oh i just dunked some LIBTARD the other day, i'm so cool, please be friends with me' ... But they never actually did it. Pretending to have internet arguments is one of the strangest things I've seen from tankies, next to the deviantart stalin and communist anime waifus... certainly, uh, curious? I don't post them here since it feels like picking on disabled folk--scatch that--IT IS picking on the disabled.
Oh good lord, they actually do that? The moment I think they can’t get worse….
Yeah, it's very prevalent all over their elements and discords. They meme a lot on the surface, but inside their actual circles, when they know it's just themselves, it's an immensely depressing place--A common trait in all extremist communities, really. Anger on the outside. Crying on the inside.
I actually think a lot about those guys who post their fanarts because I just can't fathom how utterly depressing that life must be for them. But it's also their passion and probably therapy for them, minus the whole praising long-dead dictators thing, perhaps it'll help them. Suppose that's why so many authoritarian states immediately strangle art since it pacifies the extreme.
Idk. Maybe pretending to have Internet arguments is better than actually having them.
At least then their idiocy is limited to inside their head then spread across the Internet.
I should do that honestly. Just announce that I'm right and then stop responding to a comment thread
