"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.

Because oppessing people is okay as long as you're the one doing it for totally good reasons! Absolute power TOTALLY won't corrupt you! Even funnier how a ton of Hexbear tankies showed up to that thread to downvote bomb everyone, just like they're known for doing. Haven't changed one bit in the past year or so!

".ml has a bunch of huge comms" is nothing but a myth anyways
https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active_month
By MAUs, only a single .ml comm is in the top 25, doesn't even crack the top 10 and it's a meme comm
Join the boycott of the tankie instance Lemmy.ml today! So we can show instance admins of the wider Lemmy-verse that .ml does NOT reign supreme and it's NOT worth it to "look the other way" on the .ml admins documented behavior because of their supposed "biggest comms"
Congrats to !linux_gaming@lemmy.world 👏

Funny considering they use Rule 1 (no bigotry) as an excuse to ban people and silence dissenting opinions, yet won't follow it themselves.
I am Nonbinary for those who don't know. Yes it isn't obvious but it is generally bad practice to assume someone's gender.

~~Still not a site-ban you could just restore my 1 year site-ban @dessalines@lemmy.ml js ¯\_(ツ)_/¯~~
My site ban has actually been restored, TYSM @dessalines@lemmy.ml !

Either that or my calls for boycotting lemmy.ml is having an effect lolol

It's not world news over there, it's world "news". The admins and mods of lemmy.ml will allow all manner of, and even post some themselves, pure Russian propaganda over there, it won't be removed and this user won't be banned (they continuously post a bunch of this crap).
Join the lemmy.ml boycott today! No posts, comments or upvotes on comms that are on the lemmy.ml instance!

If you don't get it, davel (a lemmy.ml admin) is referencing Star Trek in which pre-warp civilizations are seen as "not ready" for joining the interstellar community and therefore no one should have contact with them.
Considering davels history, they're most likely saying other Lemmy instances just aren't 'enlightened' enough (Read: haven't bought into Russia/CCP propaganda)
