"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.
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.

Pretty sure tankies are just a psyop to let Trump win
Well yeah, as part of the investigation in Russian interference, they noted that they tried to suppress democrat enthusiasm
The first comment was aimed at finitebanjo who is clearly a Zionist imo. I don't get how saying "what about the other genocides" is considered a valid response. FiniteBanjo ignoring Israel committing atrocities and Tankies ignoring Russia and China commiting atrocities are different sides of the same coin.
I do find it convenient that even the most egregious Zionists like Samskara didn't find themselves on the ban list. All the staunchly anti-Zionist communities and users got banned. Was this comm banned, it's clearly political in nature and fits the mold. Must be a coincidence.
Ask Admiral Patrick about it. Most of the regex entries are ridiculous. But imho Samskara and other Palestinian genocide apologists shouldn't be welcome outside of their own circlejerks.
Fair point. Tbh, the list was such a mixed bag that it's hard to tell either way. I know that's the main thing I'm outspoken about so I assumed it was because of that on my end.
I'm hoping Lemmy comes together and defederates from anyone using his front end after a small grace period.
A shadowban list at a software level is a very slippery slope.
I've never supported Israel in any way shape or form aside from the fact that it was at one point a military strategic position in the middle east where all others have failed, but with the recent war against Iran and Lebanon they've proven to be more of a liability than an advantage.
"Universal Monk figured it out? Universal Monk? Oh, this is a new low."
"Why don't you decry the other atrocities that your government isn't directly supporting with the same energy as the ones they are, huh??" It's got some real "all lives matter" energy to it.
@Satansmaggotycumfart ...Are you mad you're not on the list? I can make a new list and put you on it, if you want. 😌
