"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.

Dissenting options are not 'hurr no that's a lie my billionaire owned media told me that's a lie so that's just a lie.'
You brought far-right wing propaganda into a space that disallows it, with nothing supporting it. I know it's not the good sub but YDI. Don't be a white moderate.
Lol nice shifting goal posts, now instead of "We welcome dissenting opinions as long as it's not bigotry" now it's "We welcome dissenting opinions only as long as it's not actually dissent and aligns with our views" LMAO
ETA, and also this wasn't me, you'd know that if you had actually read what was posted so that tells me you didn't bother to read any of it but yet some how it's "far right" interesting LMAO
This community isn't about determining if an act was or was not justified. It's just for jeering about internet comment moderation along a strict and specific political slant.
Not at all, from the sidebar:
That's what my posts here aim to do, documentation.
General tankie behaviour here being disagreeing with someone who alledges that Pol Pot was funded by the CIA and agreed with market theory and also was a communist.
I'm not sure if this is a defense or a scathing critique. Neolibs are so incongruent it's hard to tell.
