"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"

Welcome to MoG!


Meanwhile On Grad


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.

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.

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.

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.

Too good not to share.

A user laments that apart from this post, a statement made by pacifists in the year 2020, nobody outside russia calls Ukraine a military dictatorship.

How could that be, I wonder.

Zelensky also does photo shoots with and praises Nazis

Ah, yes, Zelenksy, the jew. Praising nazis. For... *shuffles cards* defending the country against an agressor? Anyways, here's a picture of (formerly) Wagner's second in command Utkin

Praising nazis. For... shuffles cards defending the country against an agressor?

  1. You forgot the picture (I know of Utkin though, maybe don't do w h a t a b o u t i s m, especially when I never said I supported Russia, and this is the only person you're able to point to whereas in Ukraine Nazis are everywhere [1] [2] [3] [4] [5], you're being dishonest in order to shuffles cards discard criticism of the prevalence of Nazism in Ukraine)
  2. If you need the support of Nazis for your struggle perhaps you need to reconsider what you're doing (if they're such a "small part" of the struggle as well, as people claim, then surely Zelensky doesn't need to resort to such sycophancy and can jail these people). Zelensky wears and advertises Nazi merchandise [1] [2]; does photoshoots with Nazis (that's Azov's Andriy Biletsky, who previously stated that his goal is to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade… against Semite-led Untermenschen” ); Ukraine is known for connections to the far right, to the extent that U.S. Congress removed a ban on funding Neo-Nazis in order to support Ukraine.

You can't just hand wave this away as "Zelensky is Jewish"; in fact, Right Sektor antisemite Dmitro Korchynsky said it's convenient that the president is Jewish, because it means that it is harder to accuse Ukraine of nazism. You're playing right into the hands of people who are actively harming and seeking to kill minorities] and who uphold Nazi collaborators as heroes. You are a horrible person.

Oh woe is me, horrible people exist, and they exist even in Ukraine. The shock. The horror. You pointing to five youtube videos (lol) that apparently show nazis has exactly zero value. Maybe get russia to stop invading Ukraine, then we can start talking about whether or not Ukraine has a nazi problem.

"Horrible people exist" is the claim now? I thought they were "heroic defenders against an aggressor?" No mention of how I turned your "he's Jewish" defense on its head, no mention of how Zelensky wears and advertises Nazi merchandise, no mention of how these horrible people who simply "exist" are propped up by Zelensky and the government (no, all I showed was that "horrible people exist"). No mention of how these Nazis are CURRENTLY harming minorities in Ukraine, "let's just worry about that after" no I don't think so. I fucking hate Nazis, and I am not waiting for ANYTHING to challenge the government being soft on them (supporting them, advertising them, praising them) and allowing them to commit atrocities against their own population. Fuck you for supporting this, and in a just world you would be shot.
