"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"
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 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/Trolling — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from maliciously 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. Good-faith and honest communication is an exception.
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.
In most cases, 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. Depending on the content, the ban time may vary.
got banned for pointing out that they can't pull a revolution when they can't even handle words like... GASP...
idiot
Mod accidentally revealed his IQ of 80
Room temp IQ but can't afford the heating bill.
Goat's just lying here though, they got banned because of what happened in this thread:
Hmmm... some convincing evidence. Guess there is only one way to resolve this:
goat, what's your stance on palestine?
Israel should leave it alone, and it should leave Israel alone. They both have the right to exist.
Israel's treatment of the Palestinians is needlessly cruel.
Hamas is evil and a terrorist force that raped and massacred innocents, it also regularly silences Palestinian voices as well. Neighbouring countries like Lebanon, Jordan, and Egypt should do more to help the Palestinians.
My opinion on I/P is the same as any other conflict on the other side of the world, my country is so far removed from the conflict that there's nothing we can do except send strongly worded letters. I'm rather nihilistic that they'll ever find peace, considering the region has been in a state of perpetual war for thousands of years.
i also have some cringe ideas for peace if you want to hear them
I always suspected the tankies may have been wrong
For Tankies anyone who doesn't believe that Israel should face complete and utter destruction are zionists.
Considering two people followed up to this comment by referencing the intellectually disabled, that may be one of the tankies actually stronger points.
As someone who's autistic, I find it more ableist if you assume that idiot and stupid and any other variations upon automatically means intellectual disability.
It's like, really? That's where your mind goes when you hear stupid? It's telling on your own perspective and I challenge you on that. Say idiot, say stupid, say dumb, since that's not the intellectually disabled or what we go by.
That's not why you were banned. You were banned for Zionism because you were providing a non-defense for your stance that the correct thing for Palestinians to do is not resist genocide.

That's the thread where goat got banned.
Don't rape people, it's as easy as that
