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.
On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR "apology" (ironic)
I mean you're kinda making a blanket statement, I can't really work with 'countless stories' -- Can ya specify?
And please, don't hold me accountable for making the comparison. I never made the comparison, perhaps you should tell the above user
And also, I'm not a majority. I'm a minority as well.
Here you go. Please see... oh, pretty much any result. Throw a dart if you like. I don't need to specify, because frankly if you somehow missed every last news story, social media post, or just the constantly escalating hateful rhetoric against them, then you absolutely shouldn't be fucking talking about it.
No, you made the contrast. You were the one that suggested that one situation is oppression and the other is not.
If you're cisgender, you're the majority to their minority. You are a majority to them, playing the "who has it worse" game, where again, everyone loses.
Seems to be only in the US and biased articles. I can't anything about other countries.
I hope you see the irony in this lol
tho, I am curious, why not just use unisex bathrooms? Wouldn't that be a solution everyone can get behind?
Where exactly did you think we were talking about? What kind of bad faith shit is this?
And biased articles? My god. Biased against what? Transphobia? What about the edu articles? The research papers? Do you need assistance operating the search engine?
I'm sorry, could you explain the irony? Do you think oppressed minorities can't also be oppressors? That they can't be misogynists, homophobes, transphobes, or just good-old-fashioned racists themselves?
Unisex bathrooms are a solution that almost everyone transgender or ally gets behind. But they don't currently exist in most places that need more than two toilets in the building. I should clarify, because apparently I need to - we're talking about the United States.
And, by the way, "maybe they should just have a separate place to go to the bathroom"?
Sound familiar? Does it sound like segregation? Because it is. They should be able to use the bathroom for their gender without being fucking harassed, or worrying about being harassed. End of story.
I'm not going to talk about the US. It's a clown country.
You know exactly what you're doing. I can't believe you're a mod, you fucking clown.
