"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, rather than engaging in unrelated arguments.
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 permanently banned.
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.

MODERATORS
I've restored it. I don't think merely calling someone a "tankie supreme" is harassment. I suspect the mod in question saw a report without context and acted on it. Not quite sure how this fits the MOG concept, but you do you.
That's... supposed to be better? Though even that makes no fucking sense in context.
"I'm not quite sure how censoring people for criticizing tankies fits the MOG concept"
Any other Uyghur genocide denialism you'd like to upvote while JAQing off?
The irony is that as far as I can tell, none of the actual trolling comments that I reported (I think there were two of them) were actioned.
There are plenty of comments calling me a nazi and spreading actually fake screenshots, and instead I got banned lol
You are the goat
I see the hexbear bad faith has rubbed off on you. Sure mate, that's exactly what was happening. :D
Currently not taking action advice from people voting for genocide.
A user criticized a tankie.
A user had their comment removed.
There was no reason to remove the comment, as you yourself admitted in restoring it.
So someone was censored... for criticizing... a tankie.
It's also curious that you would say that "Hexbear bad faith" has "rubbed off" on me, considering I don't go to Hexbear or even post on an instance which is federated with them, whereas you are an ardent and vocal advocate for the federation of Hexbear with your instance and openly praise the genocide deniers on Hexbear as preferable to the 'turbolibs' on .world.
One might suspect that the bootlicking pro-genocide energy of Hexbear has 'rubbed off' on you.
Yes, I'm well-aware that you think endorsing the genocide of marginalized folk is okay so long as you don't have to spend any of your precious energy on the crime known as 'voting'. Also, cute that refraining from supporting Uyghur genocide, something that would cost you nothing (except, perhaps, whatever feelings of contrarian smugness you get from supporting genocide), is advice that you're explicitly choosing not to take. I guess endorsing state-sponsored genocide is just too much fun for a self-proclaimed 'anarchist', huh?
Enjoy your privileged middle-class existence. Some of us have to fucking struggle in this country to stay alive. But as long as you can jerk off with your online friends as to how pure you are, no number of minorities or LGBT folk being murdered by fascists matters.
disengage
Sorry that it hurts your feelings to be called on your bullshit directly leading to the murder of marginalized groups.
lol. Disengage means I just don't want to talk to you anymore ya fucking debate pervert. But do go off.
Being a 'debate pervert' is when someone treats genocide as something serious instead of a way to score points with your online pals. Of course.
Keep supporting fascists, buddy. It's clearly what you enjoy most in life, considering your taste for Holodomor and Uyghur genocide denial.
Unlike you, I'm not voting for them ;)
"I didn't do anything against the Nazis; I just watched with my thumb up my ass because I couldn't bear to see the Social Fascists of the SDP win!"
Three cheers for the Nazi-supporter who claims to be an anarchist, I guess.
Fascinating that you would bring SPD specifically, which, as it turns out, just outright murdered libsocs when they got in power.
Repeating tankie talking points now, are we? How lovely that you don't even bother with the mask anymore, just outright simping for an attempted coup along explicitly Bolshevik lines against a government that had announced national elections wherein the KPD (that's the Communist Party of Germany, mind you, not the Libertarian Socialist Party of Germany) was in no way restricted from running.
But I guess you just have a general dislike for elections and democracy. I hear you can pick up a nice armband from the National Socialist Party; they seem your speed on the subject of both elections and genocide.
Well, at least the masks are off now. We know what PJ would do when libsocs are actually a danger to the system: Join the Fash and call for their execution.
Because I... think that attempting to use force to suppress proposed democratic elections was a bad thing, even if the ones using force were painted red?
That's what "mask-off" is to you? Literally being anti-tankie?
Nice job ignoring that the KPD proposed a system explicitly along Bolshevik lines, not 'libsoc', the Bolsheviks having already overthrown an elected leftist government in Russia by this time.
You're the truest example of a scratched liberal.
Because I take the "democratic" in "democratic socialism" seriously?
You're sitting here quite literally simping for an attempt to coup a government instead of participating in democracy, explicitly along the lines of an authoritarian government which had overthrown leftists in Russia.
Sorry for believing in democracy, I understand that your curious form of 'anarchism' apparently thinks that the Vanguard Party knows what's best for the unwashed masses, and must impose that will by force upon them.
The People's Hierarchy!
Why post disengage. Why not just do it. As an administrator, as a moderator it's clear you knew what the correct actions were. You just couldn't take your own advice. And it only gets worse from there.
I'm not here to take a side in the greater argument. I wasn't here for it, and don't have a dog in the fight necessarily. That and I suppose "oh no, drama in a drama sub". But whatever impression or perception I had of you. At this point you're tarnishing. Not that that necessarily means anything. I'm no one special. Not that the original accusation wasn't hyperbole. But you are only lending it credence the more you post now.
Because that signals one doesn't want to continue the discussion explicitly and that the other person shouldn't keep waiting for an answer that will never come. It grants the last word to the other party as well. Not quite sure what your issue is with the disengange.
Posting is definitialy engagement. It's explicitly the opposite of letting them have the last word. Especially when you continue to engage afterwards.
Maybe I'm an uncouth Ozark hillbilly who's parents grew up in houses with dirt floors. Maybe it was some masterdebater super move on your part. But my problem with it as you put it. Specifically is that even you didn't seem to respect it afterwards. 🤷♂️
Your first post way up top was "adequate". You'll never win 100% in the face of drama. Continuing to post, you're just weakening it.
lmao, saving this one
And you're the truest example of a scratched anarkiddie
Hey, remember when I said disengage and your snark community shit itself?
I sure do.
How's it feel that this community is so powerful that you need to use your entire instance, lemmy.ml and also Hexbear to even stand a chance against us?
If I were you I'd make a post telling Hexbear to gtfo, but you won't, because you're a tankie and db0 is a tankie bar. 👄
Lol or not.
Who'da thunk db0 wouldn't be able to resist projecting more smug privilege despite pretending to want to stop.
Ooh, now you care about context lol
Because you are a tankie
it's bad jacketing. why would you restore it?
Admins have the authority to override a mod decision they disagree with. The whole thread stank but the decision is a solid one IMO.
