"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
What is a Tankie?
Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.
(caution of bias)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. โ Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech โ You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia โ (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism or any variation of Tankie Ideology. There is no justifying Genocide.
Revisionism โ Downplaying or denying atrocities past and present will result in an immediate ban.
If you're violating instance rules, you'll typically be warned. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last seven days, but repeat infractions will have longer sentences. You may ask to be unbanned.

There is no coherent ideology over there besides "America/the West/capitalism should be destroyed." Dudes would rather Pol Pot be in charge than Joe Biden.
Last part is true and even more insane/sad because these people are all terminally online gossip mongers that Pol Pot would have immediately executed.
You own a computer? You don't work in the fields? You wear glasses?
Yep, literally executed.
Yeah, pretty much. I mean, my estimate in the modern day would be that "ACAB I saw a bad video on Youtube, we need communism" would turn into "oh my god what the FUCK they literally came in my house because I said the wrong thing online and SLAMMED ME ON THE GROUND and now they're NOT LETTING ME OUT OF PRISON this is literally SO BAD LIKE THEY'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THIS".
But yeah, the general principle that they don't have any degree of connection to reality with what they're saying, I'll agree with you on.
This is satire, right? Nobody over there glorifies or likes Pol Pot.
Not even remotely satire, and you might notice I never said anyone over there "glorified or likes Pol Pot." Back in my early Lemmy days I spent way too much time on Hexbear trying to understand, and repeatedly was told that any communist dictator, no matter how heinous, from any time in history would be preferable to any US president. They twisted in knots denying any atrocities by communists while at it. They were clear they don't particularly like Putin, Xi, Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, etc, but would prefer their leadership in every case over US leadership
I recently had a stray gradbear challenge me to show them any link that said Pol Pot was the shit (then he'd quit the fediverse)
They have this theorem on 'actual real world communism' where you're the weakbear if you like book communism but dare to speak ill of said regimes
You should post that! if it's good
This is just.. not representative of any opinion on Hexbear in it's entire history. But feel free to lie.
Lmao hello from the future
Seethe about it
It absolutely is. You can search up pol pot here in the community.
That's.. a single post, without the user or even vote count shown.
you can search it up yourself then, but we both know you won't care
More than once I have seen the same person express both "America is evil and the whole system needs to be destroyed" and also "Joe Biden is bad for the country and I can't support him", and asked the person, well if you think America is bad and Biden is harming the country, doesn't that mean you should support him being in charge, so he can do more damage to this evil thing?
No, they know that Donald is worse for the country. They want Donald in there so America collapses faster. They want China and Russia to expand.
I don't even think they are accelerationists at this point. I think they are all either information warfare operatives or useful idiots. The hexbear admin has essentially admitted to this.
Source? I wanna see their exact words
It won't be admitting shit. They're a professional, damnit.
Source: No source, because all this shit is always made the fuck up.
Boy that would sure be convenient for your narrative wouldn't it?
And what's the complete lack of a source for a notable claim do to yours, lol?
Which narrative have I brought to this thread?
All I did was laugh at your limp-wristed grasp on reality. Your existence is all the evidence I need, player.
"It's not a narrative when I do it, reeeee"
Still waiting for you to quote "my narrative" in this thread. It's been several days lmao
Go figure you would try to break reality down into a binary system of "people who are correct" and "my absolute enemy because they pushed back on my claims".
Grow up, get over yourself, drink some water and touch grass you absolute dolt.
Bro doesn't even know what a narrative is ๐
The latter. The former are likely all deployed on social media sites with a bigger market share than the fediverse.
I'm not on Facebook but I assumed they just continue the flow of the Core Discussion we have here?
I would not be surprised in the slightest.
And Hexbear gets really awkward when you call them out on wanting the Donald.
How so? Because they don't want Donald Trump either.
The worst I've seen them say is that Trump is as bad as Biden.
I've seen people claim Trump is better for Palestine.
Palestine, TX
