"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.

Hmm I wonder why
It is probably racism
I'm sure Taiwan hates asians
Somebody did accuse me of being a sinophobe. I really wanted to ask if they were acknowledging Taiwan's independence, but I had already been banned.
“If you do not accept the Han Chinese settler colonial ethnostate, you are a sinophobe.”
Is the exact same logic as “If you do not accept the Jewish Zionist settler colonial ethnostate, you are anti-semetic”.
Criticising a state project does not equal criticism of the ethnic group in it. This is bad faith false equivalence used by MLs.
Now what the hell do they expect of people that China wants to kill or "reeducate"? Who they expect these people to ask for help?
Same thing with Ukraine aligning with West. Guilty of being murdered by Russia.
