Welcome to MoG!

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.
Some quotes from two news sites and the families. Of course, things are still in motion, and our understanding of the facts may change with time.
Edit: I have found better sources for the claims of rape, though it only states sexual assault, the evidence is grim.
Even with that small amount of evidence, we can assume that the thirty claimed captives, with the number estimated to be "dozens" by israel will suffer greatly. Sexual assault, and rape, are likely

There's raw footage of the rapes and executions on shock websites at the moment--disgusting.
That is horrific, I won't be seeking them out though and will wait for validation. Those sites tend to repost stuff from other situations any time something new happens, but I can entirely believe that to be real given the context and current information
What is the website?
I keep hearing about this but no one is linking these videos..
Same here I'm curious. People seem to be so iffy on whether any of this happened so if there's video I'd like to see it so I can know who to believe.
You can look it up yourself or visit 4chan.
