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, 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.

Fascinating. This post mentions Russia, America and England, and a comment mentions Ukraine.
No one said anything about China until you did. China wasn't part of this conversation at all until you brought it up.
It's very intriguing to think about what must be going on in your brain. Did you feel bad for China, because they were left out? Did you just assume that a post in this community must be China-related by default? Why did you bring up China in this context? Do you think that China needs you to white knight for them on the internet? Is the "same title over and over" in the room with us right now? Did you actually read anything in this post before you started insulting other people in your comments? Are you capable of reading comprehension at all?
Guess China is paying overtime. In social credit.
nah, just antiyanks and his untreated mental illness
Oh wow. You know it's not 2005 anymore, yeah? Tossing around slurs on the Internet doesn't come off as edgy and cool anymore.
Why are you talking about yourself like that, Yankee? I mean, we already knew that you aren't exactly mentally well, but it sure isn't nice to call yourself a retard. Perhaps you should talk to a therapist.
