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.

The part that says "critical support", "being totally serious" and linking to a post explaining the value of critical support
They're not being sarcastic, dude. That's what critical support means.
In the post they're being asked if they're joking, they respond they are not joking. Your response is that they are joking.
Why?
If you don't think critical support means support than there's nothing I can do for you.
It links to a thread explaining that they are being one hundred percent serious, going into detail about the values of critical support.
You can find the post by using the search function and filtering to comments made and what the comment said
Still means support
it's so convenient that you can call something sarcastic
lmao what do you want me to change my mind on? That jokes about genocide and supporting groups that murder LGBTQ is okay?
Oh okay. Well since you love sarcasm so much, consider everything I've said sarcastic and also your ban as sarcastic too. I'm sure you can find the humour in it.
