"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 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.

There has been 41k deaths, 47% of the Gaza strip population was under 18. Mind you, these are just the first results from Google which you could of looked up yourself if you weren't busy defending one of the greatest evils since world War 2.

Didn't i tell you not to use the ministry of propaganda? They literally use the "Gaza ministry of health" as source. Same with your second "source"

But hey! How about giving a actual source that isnt run by terrorists?

Its a disgrace to humanity that these "news" sites literally repeat the hamas ministry of propaganda lies...

Maybe just stop defending terrorists and nazi terrorists?

How about this, you can give me a source and that way, we can figure out how many dead innocents civilians you can kill for a bit of waterfront property, and still have complete and utter morons defending you.

There is literally no independent information, thats the point. You wouldn't trust a Israeli source for that, i do understand that, but im not going to accept the ministry of propagandas bullshit especially not the heavily criticized bullshit that one organization made up saying "there are way more deaths" and pulling 100k+ out of their ass.

A war means a war, civilian deaths are bad, but within a asymmetrical war even 40k would be a relatively low number compared to the other war ratios (killed terrorists/killed bystanders) however, as said this number is proven to be false and the number is way lower. You speak about a genocide while Israel evacuates injured and ill civilians to Israel for treatment, while more humanitarian aid than ever before is being send to gaza, after Israel stopped Egypt from digging a gigantic channel between the Egyptian and Gaza border because that would have endangered the water safety of Gaza.

You speak of genocide while normal people see a war against terrorism with sad but impossibly to avoid civilian casualtys. While the terrorists that are being fought are literally and officially on a mission to kill everyone in Israel and every jew in the world.
