"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. 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.

Based on 30 minutes of looking around the instance I didn't see anything immediately indicative of CSAM. A lot of lolis and sexualized images but no obvious sexual pornographic content of that nature. Just the standard anime trope of everyone either appearing childlike or having absurdly exaggerated sexual organs.

So I woyld think there is a very loose definition of CSAM being used.

Now, I did see a discussion thread for Samurai X, which, fine I guess, but if I saw a Lost Prophets appreciation thread in a music community it would raise an eyebrow.

Hopefully the situation can clear things up between the two instances.

Some idiots use "CSAM" to refer to drawings.

Because apparently words don't mean things.

I didn't find any. Is there nsfw loli shit?

That's meant to be against ani.social's content policy.

Anime is very obviously pedophile adjacent. I have no patience for people who pretend not to be able to see it.

Cartoons too

That's so specific of them. Like, isn't that the one anime sub that is very strict on loli content?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

I don't know whether it qualifies as very strict, but their content policy does prohibit it:

Do not submit content depicting a child (both real and virtual) engaged or involved in explicit sexual activities. A child is defined as a person who is under 18 years old; or a person, regardless of age, who is presented, depicted or portrayed as under 18 years old.

I'm not aware of any enforcement issues, though I only follow their animemes, anime_irl, and meta communities. And of course, dessalines didn't cite anything specific, just said “No, that is full of CSAM” and locked the thread.

They should spread this news across Lemmy if the developers are blocking instances

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

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], [email protected], [email protected]

Being defederated from lemmy.ml should be a reason to celebrate. Who does want to gather on an instance that federates with fascist bears and grads?

On the other hand, as I commented on another post of this community and previously on other posts of other communities, this should be a good reason to fork lemmy. But...
