"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 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.

For someone who has to proclaim to the world that they're autistic, you seem awfully defensive on your reading comprehension. Didn't mean to strike a nerve.
Saying you don't need to learn anything else. Is not the same as "I know everything". She knows she doesn't know everything. And that's fine. She doesn't NEED to. I don't NEED to learn anything more about bike repairs. I know enough. Does that mean I know everything? No. Just that I'm content with what I know, and i get by just fine.
Go google the six skills of reading comprehension. You don't know what you're talking about and I'm not going to sit here to do the work for you when you're not ready to listen. None of those skills have anything to do with taking something too literally, you're being ableist.
You were literally unable to correctly comprehend what you read in the post. But okay, It's not your reading comprehension. It's your "autism". If blaming that for not understanding rather than something else makes you feel better. Go ahead.
