Welcome to MoG!
Meanwhile On Grad
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.

Both of these instances have already defederated themselves. You're on a community that is dedicated to highlighting hate-speech and tankie behaviour.
and yes, they have tried to impose them on other instances. Even the Developers themselves tried to force their beliefs until the developers of Kbin told them off.
Could you give some more context on this? Possibly a link to where it happened? I want future ammo for when someone says it's not a problem because "lemmygrad is open source the devs don't matter"
It's one of the stickied links here
Well your boring post shows up in all feeds so anyone can criticise it, regardless of where u post it.
yes that is how federation works. You can block the community by clicking on the big red "Block Community"
Oh so you just dont like being criticised and would rather just have people be blind to your output.
what? I just said if you dislike the content of a community, you can block it, lol
Thats exactly the same thing. Just take the L and move on. No need to be salty about people not sharing your opinion.
im so fucking confused. If you don't wanna see the content of this community, you are free to block it from your feed so it doesn't show up.
Nono, im telling you i want to see it so i can tell you that its boring. Blocking stuff that sucks doesnt actually make that stuff go away, its just an easy way to make the world seem more pretty than it is. Also making a shitpost about other peoples rants wont make those go away either.
Oh okay. Well unfortunately I don't care. :v
I have said for so long that there must be motherfuckers like you out there, it's the only way to explain the crybabies who won't just settle for ignoring things. Finally someone who admits it!
Ah yes, ignoring problems is why we have functioning healthcare (in parts of the world) and medicine and education and much reduced racism and voting rights. Surely all human advancements were achieved by ignoring things.
thanks for comparing this community to functional healthcare and breakthroughs in medicine! (:
Seriously though, what do you want this community to do exactly?
Dude… fuck off
He can stay as long as he's not breaking any rules. Dissent is a good thing!
And there we have the typical strawman argument of the fragile tankie.
