.ml users are complete imbeciles. Told one that China should backup their previous claims before fabricating wild new ones and got met with a wall of text about how I'm xenophobic and racist. I'd have all .ml instances removed from Lemmy. Be highly suspicious of any .ml users and assume they're working for China and/or Russia.
Okay, but you did get scammed on that MRI
American healthcare baby 🤘
tankies only argument against capitalism only happen in USA lol, kinda ironic
Does that map show Tibet not being part of China? Pretty ironic.
Also north korea being free lmao.
The dissonance is insane
All simping for China, a one-party state where the Dalai Lama is considered a threatening dissident, and nothing bad has ever happened.
A one party state with a capitalist economy at that
I'm surprised the tankies put Vietnam as 'free'. Maybe they haven't been keeping up with US-Vietnamese relations since the 1990s.
It tried to make me download a file so I'm not looking at whatever it was
Just a png screenshot, I uploaded it from the voyager app. See alt link.
The imgur link works fine.
The brain worms are strong over there. As far bonked as the right.

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?
(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.
