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.

bad comparison
Trans aren't oppressed like black people were
Where do you base this on?
also i'm not sure if slavery and lynching are the same as being denied a bathroom.
I mean you're kinda making a blanket statement, I can't really work with 'countless stories' -- Can ya specify?
And please, don't hold me accountable for making the comparison. I never made the comparison, perhaps you should tell the above user
And also, I'm not a majority. I'm a minority as well.
Seems to be only in the US and biased articles. I can't anything about other countries.
I hope you see the irony in this lol
tho, I am curious, why not just use unisex bathrooms? Wouldn't that be a solution everyone can get behind?
I'm not going to talk about the US. It's a clown country.
Okay, I concede that the situation in the US is concerning for trans and queer folk. I tend not to think of US defaultism when discussing social issues.
Do you accept that?
