"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


What is a Tankie?


Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(caution of bias)


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 or any variation of Tankie Ideology. There is no justifying Genocide.

Revisionism — Downplaying or denying atrocities past and present will result in an immediate ban.

If you're violating instance rules, you'll typically be warned. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last seven days, but repeat infractions will have longer sentences. You may ask to be unbanned.

All while posting in a community that uses China, a historically and modern-day imperialist country as its icon. Irony is dead.

It's not even both side bad. Fuck colonial Russia, fuck the Hamas butchers that wouldn't waste a breath before slitting the throats of anyone that leftists support.

Why the fuck are these people supporting these absolute scum that stand against any progressive ideals.

Their whole ideology revolves around owning the “Ameritards”, even if it means preaching trans rights while simping violently homophobic far-right authoritarian regimes like ruzzia and hamas.

I have seen progressives in general become so anti-American that they start shilling for blatantly far right talking points. Claiming that the Japanese internment camps were "concentration camps" because it fits the technical definition is a classic example. It's literally a Holocaust denial through trivialization/moral equivalency tactic that the far right loves.

Yeah, as a Washington state resident I’m vividly aware of my state’s racist treatment of its large Japanese minority during WW2, but “concentration camps” is an exaggeration for sure, and does a huge disservice to the Holocaust victims, Uyghurs, and the indigenous children in those old Canadian and American “boarding schools”; now THOSE are/were concentration camps.
