Just another day for Dessalines, deleting wrongthink instead of doing anything more productive with their time... what a life it must be to live, just sitting there waiting for someone to say something you don't like just so you can ban them while leaving the actual development work of your platform to a transphobe. Can't even let moderators do the work. I guess if Dessalines didn't remove dissent then his users might actually realize how ridiculous his ideas are and find a better instance that isn't run by a nutjob.

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.

It's probably Dessalines' dream life. It's all he's got. It's only online that he gets to roleplay as some sort of communist. I can't imagine anyone would tolerate his antics IRL.
Ha! Not a chance. Everyone would get sick of him in minutes.
This one of mine was removed:
Just seeing who you are. Now I know. Lmao, a vote for Stein is a vote for Trump. Last question. What don't you like about Trump right now? Do you think Harris would have been better or worse? I know you hate her for reasons, but would she have been better than trump?
Under rule 2
Be respectful, especially when disagreeing. Everyone should feel welcome here.
Everyone should feel welcome here.

Man these pesky communist do live rent free in your head. Wankers
Did ya know there's these things called "scripts" and you can write one to do things like idk monitor the modlog of a problematic instance. That can then do some wild stuff when it comes across something that matches certain conditions, like firing a notification to a phone!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie
Tankie is a pejorative label generally applied to authoritarian communists, especially those who support or defend acts of repression by such regimes, their allies, or deny the occurrence of the events thereof.
