"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 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.

Yep. The fact you keep thinking you're good at this is hilarious to me. You do know that people who are shit at things often overestimate their skills, right?

That would explain all your bullshit.

As far as I'm aware, he has not posted pictures of where he's from. It's most likely that he's American, because the most users are. It is incredibly unlikely that he's Ugandan. Sure, the probability isn't zero, but it's low.

So Vicky with Three Kisses was undoubtedly a faithful German working for the Reich, right? You can't prove she wasn't!

Wow, you're actually an idiot! You won't admit how stupid your argument was, so you shift to something totally different! Wow, this is crazy. I'm done here, but feel free to keep going. I guess I should have taken the advice of "don't argue with idiots. They'll pull you down to their level and win with experience." I don't think you've won here. Based on the ratio, everyone sees how bad your shit stinks. However, you think you're winning. Just stay on the offensive, and provide no evidence, and it'll surely make people believe you're winning, right?

Why is it most likely?

Because... you believed so?

You won't admit how stupid your argument was, so you shift to something totally different

Well this is undoubtedly the most ironic thing I've read this year.

"This guy spreading purposeful Russian propaganda and suckling Putler's teat to every last inch is actually not a Russian, there's not even remote evidence he's a Russian and actually he's American and that means you should always s question support for the imperialist capitalist forces you remain bound to in your nations comrades! And btw, this is me being socially progressive and not a Marxist-Leninst moron"

Ruahahaha haha

"I'm done here"

No you're not lol. You're so mad and like severely on a mission that you definitely won't stop replying. You're so utterly utterly utterly pissed because I brought up Синдром Вахтёра but ofc you can't reply showing you know what I mean.

And when you pretend not to, it's kind of hilariously. I'd love to play poker with real money with you. Although I don't accept rubles.
