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, rather than engaging in unrelated arguments.
Brigading — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from 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 permanently banned.
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 support bombing civilians there?
Talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
I lean towards the Palestinian side and oppose Israel's genocide, but that doesn't mean I am going to say Hamas kidnapping random civilians is good.
You online leftists are a joke.
You're an online leftist, that means with a high degree of probability you support russian genocidal imperialism.
Think whatever you want to think. I told you I support Palestine, but that doesn't mean I am going to support kidnapping of random civilians.
yeah you "support" them as long as they stay quiet waiting to die in their open air prison.
Current russia is an emanation of the US imo. You need an enemy to sell more gunz. Ideologically, they're just fascist proxies.
Dude, make up whatever fantasy that makes you feel better!
Are you denying that both america and russia are fascists?
This is a riductionist take.
Russia is more of an imperialist state capitalist fascist entity. With a society that overwhelming supports genocidal imperialism.
US is a proto-fascist oligarch regime, with significant part of the population supporting corruption and criminality.
I was more refering to the gibberish about selling guns and what not and trying to define how I support the Palestinians. No need to put words in my mouth.
Ah yeah you don't support genocide but you don't support the only armed force defending people from genociders.
Fucking clown.
Not if they kidnap random civilians and are involved in rape and torture.
Target senior business leaders, administration officials, propagandist, the police, the military. Not random civilians.
Ah yes coz that's so easy to do when you're stuck in a concentration camp.
Still whining about the 7th of october is shameful at this point. You guys cant straight up say the palestinian deserved it but you can still push the narrative according to which they do, don't ya.
Threat people like animals and they act like animals. Who would have thought?
