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?
(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.

Join the lemmy.ml boycott today! No more posts, comments or upvotes on any comms on the lemmy.ml instance!
Just report every post you see as Rule 1. That should still be in spirit with the boycott.
Damnit, you should have suggested that before I got them to reinstate my instance ban LOL I don't think I can even send reports with an instance ban
Lol! I am getting rando-banned as well! I guess the head Nazi doesn't like people associating with you. (This was on 3D printing, of all places. Wut.)
This just in: mods have power and use it how they want to
This comms purpose is to document the behavior, words and hypocrisy of the tankies, to include the admins and mods of lemmy.ml
This post is documentation on a few of their claims, one of them is that they don't censor and remove things unlike the "Reddit-like mods of .world/.ee"
Another is that they welcome all debates, as long as it's not "Bigoted"
