"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.

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.

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.

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.

btw their bit on "stopping racial solidarity" is because they are openly racist in most of their posts. This is also their fourth whine post in a week, which is why I think this particular whinepost is okay. (seriously, there's daily whine posts)

How are these people meant to stop capitalism? How are they going to revolt? How are they going to be a threat to the bourgeois?

This is the kind of petty 'woe is me' drama that you used to see from teenagers on Livejournal,

,,, god, I'm getting old

Eh, I don't see what's dunk-worthy in this post.

@[email protected] sums it up nicely -- That and the bodymessage

Needing to project an image of strength is more of a right-winger thing. I'm not going to fault other leftists for being openly emotional. Though if you're saying that it clashes with the whole "we're going to put you up against the wall" thing, then yeah. It's the latter that I take issue with, not the former.

i am saying that, yeah. If you constantly talk about how much violence you want to give the bourgeois, then you should be a bit tougher

You're not beating the allegations here my guy

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

And what allegations are these?

That's not the whole story. This user said they hated white people and that they deserved the worst, except the comrades (the good ones... ugh) in reaction to a Reddit post about the recent migrant wave in Italy (the things said in the aforementioned post were indeed vile). It got reported, and a mod made a post to make fun of the report, stating that you can't be racist against whites. Some 6chan users justifiably didn't appreciate to see one of theirs perpetuating the same prejudice-infused language used by racists, and where labelled "libs" as a result.

That's what Othello is crying about here: not being able to handle being called out on their prejudice. A real shitshow.
