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. There is no justifying Genocide.
Revisionism — Downplaying or denying atrocities past and present will result in an immediate 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.

I do think so too however I haven't seen stalin apologia in her posts, that's what seemed weird to me about this post
Tankies as a group love to defend Stalin though, so the point still stands especially for an admin of a tankie community.
Holy shit. Literally just visit lemmygrad for 10 minutes.
But you do doubt hexbear? Why is that?
So you think a few bad apples can radicalise it?
Then do you agree with me why no one should use Stalin in any ironic or joking matter? Do you think users here, mog, deserve to be welcomed? If not, why?
Would you find using Hitler in a joking matter equally as funny?
You didn't answer the question though. Should members from this community be welcomed?
The point of the post is that it's ignorant to use Stalin positively when his regime killed queers and jews.
I don't think she uses it positively, she's just using the reaction image to show her sending to the "gulag" (banning) everyone with harsh opinions she and her communities don't share
That's using it positively dude, wtf are you on about
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
Have you not looked at any of the posts on this community showcasing Hexbear repeatedly praising Stalin and the USSR's atrocities?
Yes, plenty.
"nuance in its dictatorship" -- Fucking hell dude.
