Why so mad against french?

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 11 points 1 day ago

They seem to dislike france's freedom of speech and their anti-islam stance.

... No, it does not make sense. I don't have a clue.

Degenerates.

What does that mean? Do they actually want Charlie Hebdos, as in people that aren't scared to make irreverent cartoons of Mohammed? Or they want people like Charlie Hebdo to get the same response from the Muslim community? There's a difference.

I too am intrigued why tankies would support islamic fundamentalists murdering leftist french journalists... Doesn't add up... My only guess (beyond the general mental illness tankies display) is that French colonialism fucked up cultures around the world for centuries — across south America, Africa, and Asia — and they still hold political and military control over a few of them... But why cheer islamic terrorism? Why cheer the murder of leftist journos?

This sub should require links to the offending thread, so users can view in context. Otherwise this could've been posted anywhere. I'd expect this screenshot from the likes of Truth Social.

Tankies are very simple things. They operate by US bad

If something, like jihadists, says the US is bad, then the Tankies will support them.

until....

I also am not allowed to link to the content. I also don't link to it because then they can edit or change the content.

They're leftists but not the right kind of leftists. That makes them deserving of being murdered in the tankies' eyes.

They are reacting to this comic from 'Liberation' newspaper last year about the genocide in Gaza during Ramadan:

The woman in a hijab is slapping the hand of an emaciated Gazan chasing after a rat, presumably to catch and eat it, and saying "Not before sunset"

They want to kill -- Or rather, like classic rich college kids, they want others to kill for them. They will thankfully never do anything violent, all bark.

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

(Well, actually, watch out for them IRL on a smaller level. They very well may be violent, abusive people that will hurt you, or participate in SLA style politicial violence, it's just that no "revolution" is ever going to happen.

And before someone says it, no I didn't say they all are, just that they can be.)

[-] goat@sh.itjust.works 4 points 14 hours ago

I've seen what they look like. They're not particularly strong men, really flimsy, actually. Riddled with anxiety and insecurity.

[-] ArcaneSlime@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 13 hours ago

Usually. Every now and again they kill Marcus Foster.

1000 pretentious leftist magazines would be WAY too many

[-] archomrade@midwest.social 0 points 14 hours ago

Had to go looking, but I found the image this comment is in reaction to.

spoiler

It's a cartoon from "Liberation" newspaper in france, and the caption is "Ramadan in Gaza" (published just after the hunanitarian aid blockade and famine crisis started in Gaza, for which Israel is now being accused as an act of genocide)

The woman in a hijab is slapping the hand of an emaciated Gazan chasing after a rat, presumably to catch and eat it, and saying "Not before sunset"

It's a pretty openly Islamophobic joke about Gazan's starving during the month of Ramadan where muslims traditionally fast from sunrise to sunset.

I don't think it should need to be said, but even orthodox Muslims recognize exceptions to fasting during ramadan for starvation and bodily injury.

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 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.
