Formerly chapo.chat and r/chapotraphouse, they are a tankie instance that frequently brigades threads that mention them, and engage in harassment campaign against anyone who disagrees with them. They also frequently praise and defend Russia and China, two genocidal dictatorships in which one is engaging in an illegal war against ukraine and china has rampant human rights abuses. Since there are good faith users on that instance, they are more of a hesitation than a censure.

If you would care to help us curb our hate group tendencies as you have identified them, could anyone explain what would be an acceptable way to have a different perspective and opinion from that of the US State Department on its enemies without being a tankie? Is it our tone when talking about foreign policy or just that an opinion other than the consensus is being expressed? Surely there's a non tankie way to engage on these serious global issues while still expressing a different view.
