"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.

You’re both being incredibly cringy.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

And so you decided to get in on the cringe yourself. Nice.

[–] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Nope. I just decided to point it out.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

So pointing out the faults of others behavior is only cringe when other do it, got it.

[–] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No, using “Redditor” as an insult is top-tier edgelord cringe. That’s all.

[–] Jiggle_Physics@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You still seem to misunderstand. I am not calling this person a redditor because I feel they are beneath me or something, I am calling them that because they talked shit, and used redditor as a pejorative, all while displaying the worst cliche behavior of the site.

[–] JimSamtanko@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago

And you essentially did the same.
