"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"

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.

I actually grabbed this because someone doubted the existence of people who equated both sides of the war as equally responsible. Lo and behold, our favorite tankie hangout came up with ample examples just from typing in "Ukronazi" on local search. Hexbear being mask-off amongst their own is really convenient, honestly, I spent more time searching for the right kbin mag to post it in than I did grabbing it.

Ah yes, the incredibly imaginative and devastating insult I see in YT comment sections daily from 13-yo ruzzian nationalists and edgelords who are so heterosexual and secure in their masculinity they have to constantly and loudly insist that they are those things

I finally figured out why people keep using the word Ruzzian. Those are the fans of the SMO. That took me way too long

Hexbear just defended Kim Jong Un. That instance is lost.

There are people there that maintain DPRK and Khmer Rouge era Cambodia are/were socialist nations.
