"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. Memes are welcome!


What is a Tankie?


Alternatively, a detailed blog post about Tankies.

(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.

Sauce for your pasta, feel free to share it around!

"Do you think these ghouls make “always the same joke” statements?

Because, reading through the comments of each post, it’s like being stuck in a perpetual time loop wherein a single College Republican is crying about tankies being literally the same as Nazis to himself. Might be the most depressing thing I’ve seen in a few days.

Note that they call us c***suckers, too. Very progressive!

Hey, fucker, if you’re lurking - I’m here, I’m queer, and I’m an ardent Marxist-Leninist working and praying for the downfall of empire. When the actual fascists turn their guns on me, you will be standing right alongside them.

I will be standing alongside my colonized and marginalized siblings and comrades, and we will not make any excuses for revolutionary self-defense. Fuck you."
