"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.

Nothing, they are crazy.

I think they’re saying they won’t execute everyone from the west when they get to power, just the transphobes

And who are the transphobes? Everyone who doesn't agree with everything they say. That spider-syndicalist (who can't spell anarcho-) in that thread is right to be worried, they will repeat those same "mistakes" as the "mistakes" are baked into the core of them.

the first "get" is "understand this joke"

the second "get" is "have this happen to them"

Wow, pretty disturbing considering that on Hexbear I stated that in very particular about supporting each individuals prefered he or she or them pronouns, but I draw the line at neopronouns, and at that point they decided I was a mega transphobe anyway.

Not that there's any chance of any of these basement dwellers getting real power, but eye opening to the radicalization that can happen in online echo chambers.
