"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 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/Trolling — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from maliciously 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. Good-faith and honest communication is an exception.

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.

This was posted in !world@lemmy.world, on an article about South Korea and Israel. I don't want to go back to the thread and look at the mess again..

Anyway, they said:

In that they insist they're the rightful rulers of a land they invaded and only gained international legitimacy after being backed by nuclear superpowers, much to the suffering of the actual native populations; while everyone ignores their fascist history and present and pretends they're a beacon of democracy in an otherwise savage land full of subhuman monkeys barely fit to be called slaves.

Besides the fact that the the divide is typical ideological division, not "invasion" of sort, I find the following part more egregious.

otherwise savage land full of subhuman monkeys

Isn't this just plain racism against us South Koreans? Where did they learn to dehumanize civilians like that?

Meh, it's my bad thinking there would not be racists in Lemmy.

There are some voices of reason in the thread saying that NASA money is a drop in the bucket compared to war spending, but there's a whole lot of support for space exploration by China (and Russia), because of course it's only bad when "USian"
