Welcome to MoG!

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, rather than engaging in unrelated arguments.
Brigading — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from 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 permanently banned.
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.

MODERATORS
Crazy to just ban someone that don't agree, this place looks more and more like Reddit every passing second. Sadly, like reddit, lemmy will not fold as it already have the momentum build with the exodus from reddit, but i sure hope they return to the state of asking for scrap.
avoid those tankie instances and your fine. plus also pro-israeli communities(politics ) .world. you will have to deal with tankies making account in other instances to troll, so you should block them too. just yesterday there was a meme thread, and where all the "tankies" were stroking each other egos..
I mean, the fediverse isn't really one place so some instances will feel better or worse compared to reddit moderation anyway. I just wish .ml wasn't the default, lol
I mean in a way that we shouldn't be tolerating this behaviour but somehow we have to, because they're the dev, and it's impossible to defederate with them because the announcement is via that instance. Many people still pay them money to developing the software that inevitably used to run the propaganda instance, which could be better used to fund another more promising software but without a questionable figure on top. And instance block doesn't block the cum stain from interact with another user.
I get banned from here every fucking day
And yet you're here...? In a new account? Pretty clear you're just here to troll.
"Troll" is how you call resisting propaganda. It's the same as their "brigotry"
Nu uh.
You sure do, Yanks, you sure do! And all to accomplish absolutely nothing LMAO
