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. — 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 or any variation of Tankie Ideology. There is no justifying Genocide.
Revisionism — 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.

MODERATORS
Where? When?
There are a bunch of examples of "liberals" siding with right-wingers against communism and the actual left in general, all in the name of maintaining the status quo.
There are zero examples of progressives doing the same.
Coincidentally, there are a bunch of examples of tankies suppressing (or outright killing) communists and the left in general, all in the name of maintaining power.
So liberals aren't killing communists just for existing?
Yup, the dude who you replied to was smoking something strong.
At no point have "liberals" done the actual killing, they've always been the enablers. The ones who want open debate with the murderers, in the name of maintaining some twisted form of civility.
There are a bunch of fascinating write-ups about it all. Usually in the context of the build up to Nazi Germany.
Feel free to link them over then! Politics building up to WW2 is always so fascinating.
This is a great write-up from the only Robert Evans legally allowed that name.
