"That's not how monarchies work, you have to end the line then and there"
Nah they're totally right, there's never been a monarchy that's ended without killing the entire family. Except for all the ones that have.

Welcome to MoG!

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.

This is pretty nuts. I feel sorry for the guy, he just wanted to debate politics and instead had to defend why shooting the children was a monstrous act whether you could rationalise it or not... You've still shot kids.
Only found out about Hexbear the other day and it seems like an odd place. I consider myself left wing politically but these guys sound like they just want to be authoritarian. Weird
I don't get it, can someone explain ?
That’s the wall the Russian royal family was executed in front of. Those are bullet holes in the photo. Two of the Romanovs were underage children at 13 and 17 years of age when they were executed by the communists. In hexbear world this is fine because they may have hypothetically formed a counter revolution against the communists if they were allowed to live. They’re not wrong that this may have happened, they’re just dickheads for rationalizing why it’s ok to murder children.
Thanks, but what does it have to do with transphobia ?

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.
Royalty always travels separately for that very reason though.
They’re basically saying that it was necessary to kill the children of Nicholas II
Killing someone because they may or may not do something in the future. Who does this remind me of?
I say this unironically, they need Jesus. They need something or someone to give them good morals, because whatever morals they have just aren't working.
Taking extremists and adding religious zeal tends to end poorly.
The terminally online don't need Jesus, they need grass to touch.
I can't think of anything worse than these shitty little zealots finding religion.
You've heard of CHRISTOFASCISTS... now prepare for... CHRISTOTANKIES!
I always picture them as teenagers like 4chan trolls. Most of them will grow up hopefully.
No Jesus needed. Just install the emotional damage patch. It comes pre-loaded on a stick that is shoved... Well, you think of the install procedure yourself
Wowie. That's one of the most violent things I've seen from them, good find.
