"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"
Welcome to MoG!

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 it 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.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in arguments that lack mutual agreement.
Brigading — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from voting, commenting, or manipulating the post in any way. This includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be banned.
Tankies can explain their views, but may be criticised or challenged for them. Any minor infraction of the rules may result in a warning and possibly a temporary ban.
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 last only 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction doubles the duration. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.

MODERATORS
Most don't know even with what Hamas is doing. Which is mostly hurting the people they're supposed to represent. Most Palestinians dislike Hamas as much as anyone else. They just can't do anything about it.
You said Hamas has done nothing to help the people. Is getting more privileges in the eyes of the UN not help? Palestine got more rights due to the Gaza war, which Hamas started. Like I said, I don't condone their actions, but their actions do end up putting Israeli atrocities in the forefront which ultimately leads to more people turning against Israel. I wouldn't be surprised if some Palestinians are against Hamas. They're a necessary evil that should be purged as soon as Israel stops trying to eradicate Palestine, but as long as Israel is oppressing Palestine Hamas is necessary if for no other purpose than to draw global attention on Palestine.
If you want Gaza to be like the West Bank then they might as well just roll over and die.
Is it? Honest question. In general I support the idea of the UN and the spirit of it. What good is it?
The genocide and deportation is happening, and will happen. Hamas is having no effect. They are only getting more innocent Palestinians killed.
Since coming into power how many elections has Hamas held? Zero? Fuck hamas. What, elections can't be held during an ongoing conflict? Well isn't that just convenient. Let's just keep the conflict going forever and they can stay in power forever. Fuck Hamas.
Who's been getting suitcases of cash from Israel and not used it to actually help the Palestinian people? Fuck Israel, fuck Hama's.
Why is it when a named high level Hamas member is killed it's basically never in Gaza or any of the places they're supposed to be fighting for. Always hundreds to thousands of miles away in some Conflict Free Zone pissing the time away while accomplishing little to nothing. Don't get me wrong I absolutely understand the Strategic value in having a safe point from which to plan. But at some point they need to be in the trenches themselves. And not sending children to be slaughtered.
Honestly the lot of US politicians that have actively funded Israel's conflicts along with the whole of Israeli government should be tried and imprisoned. But just because they are evil. That doesn't make Hamas good.
