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.

It's blaming the victims, the whole "if you are the baddies."
Women that were at the rave were filmed being raped and subsequently killed.
They are literally saying they deserved it dude wtf
I will go on a limp and say you didn't see the edit. Regardless, how about the other recent posts?
This community isn't designed to sway tankies minds, nor do they want to be challenged on their views, none engage in the tankie-friendly thread despite the rules being more relaxed there.
This is also from the thread
Do you think your point still stands despite them saying, 'They weren't civilians' and that they deserved it? Or is your point that it's fine to celebrate the death of civilians but not raping civilians? Or do you think rape shouldn't be mentioned (even though it happened to the attendees) because the tankies want the civilians killed instead? These are odd priorities. Like how do you think Islamic Terroists kill women, my dude.
Sorry, I'm confused.
Okay, I understand your point. I've since edited the thread title. Is it better?
And I didn't claim that you specifically were defending them, apologies if it came across that way, that wasn't my intention with my questions. I initially thought that you were upset that I was highlighting what happened to the civilians prior to their murder, even though that's how some of the attendees were killed, being raped to death.
Would you like this comment chain to be removed? It's been solved now.
I always ask before removing stuff when there are no rules broken
