"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?
(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.
On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR "apology" (ironic)
@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com appreciation
Probably the best admin on this entire platform, but I am biased as I am under their instance.
Shadow from lemmy.ca is also great. I've never had a single complaint about how they run things.
Agreed, as another person on dbzer lol
Do you do this for every product in the supermarket
Bro where you been? Nestle is the classic example, tesla is a newer one, proton too, chic fil a, etc.
Yeah. People do also boycott stuff. What the fuck does he mean lmao.
Yeah, lets start donating to piefed.
Meh, maybe some non-tankie (and also non-right-wing) programmer can step up and we start working on a fork and we'll donate? Maybe?
Anyone? 👀
^ahem^
the alternative to lemmy is piefed. mbin also exists.
Problem is, piefed in run on a different code so you can't just convert the lemmy database into piefed.
With a Lemmy fork, the transition would be seamless.
