"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. 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 it 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.

Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in arguments that lack mutual agreement.

Brigading — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from voting, commenting, or manipulating the post in any way. This includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be banned.

Tankies can explain their views, but may be criticised or challenged for them. Any minor infraction of the rules may result in a warning and possibly a temporary ban.

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 last only 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction doubles the duration. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.

I hope this post fits the content and format of this community, if not I'm sorry.

I'm just incredibly shocked by the fact that an admin of the instance lemmy.dbzer0.com is openly supporting Hamas.

Once again, your argument is circular and inane.

You are begging the question, of the particular acts and the reasons for their being characterized as terrorist.

The fact is that Israel labels Hamas as terrorist, because doing so functions in service of its state interests. However, Israel has no credibility, and all of its claims should be strongly scrutinized.

Once again, you demonstrate zero knowledge of what those words mean.

True.

However, Israel has no credibility, and all of its claims should be strongly scrutinized.

Also true.

Hamas is also a terrorist organization.

Terrorism is when acts of terror. I am very intelligent.

Rolling up to a music festival with the boys to slaughter and rape was imperfect. Just a little oopsie. I am not a terrorist simp

Bad Hasbara.

You are repeated debunked Zionist propaganda.

[–] goat@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Debunked? Are you saying there was no rape or murder of civilians during the 7th of October massacres? Note the plural there.

Nah, as long as they aren't being hostile I don't mind them showing off how irrational they are

Edit: lol, see, they had to make sjw alts to appear like there are more of them. Totally unhinged people.
