"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.

Ah yes, the checks notes Islamic Resistance Movement is famously progressive which it displays by imposing the Hijab in a region where it's not traditional, prohibiting women from participating in sports events and banning music festivals as Haram (even before they were murdering festival goers in Israel). I'm pretty sure they have a very reasonable position regarding homosexuality. /s

Wait, let me bombard you with 16 quintillion articles about how U.S. citizens are actually homophobic. Now that you understand your place, why exactly is homopbobia from Hamas bad? Oh, also I'm trans btw.

Yeah, like 75% of us Americans support gay marriage (though admittedly only 45% support gender-affirming care)

This sums up the actual situation gays face in Palestine, not even Israel the so-called “only gay-friendly country in the Middle East” has done anything for them (and even enables their plight)
