"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.

I’m a bit surprised. I thought all major instances had defederated from hexbear like a year ago.

They sure know how to make friends over there.

Pretty sure .world has them defederated.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 3 points 1 hour ago

Oh yeah, didn't mention them as I assumed you knew as it's yours

Defederating from Hexbear must be one of the least controversial things a Lemmy admin could do.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 19 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

The shitheads whining about how unfair it is their favorite fascist hangout was defederated are so predictable.

Hey pug, it's been a while since I've used lemmy, but from this post how do you visit the link without leaving SJW?

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 6 points 2 hours ago

You can also copy paste the link ( https://startrek.website/post/15928569 ) into your search bar:

idk, I just checked through Startrek instance. Using an exclamation mark before a community name can send you through your own instance, but that requires the link poster to do it.

[–] goat@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

can you show what that link looks like?

The Federation setup a DMZ with the cardassians!
