"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.
also downvoted for preferring democracy lol
also look at these weird ass rules. This is for the "korea" community
Insecure much?
And then people ask why the lemmy devs receive so little funding. I want to support lemmy but I just can't morally support people pushing this agenda.
Women and Men receive the same payment for the same work
That payment? $24 per year.
That's not a joke. That is the real number at the black market exchange rate.
That is the real number at the black market exchange rate.
Which is the ONLY exchange rate, because North Korea.
I'm surprised nobody ITT saw the Facebook page “The Soviet Reporter” owns. Despots gonna despot.
I also love the 여자 in the poster: She's not allowed to shave her hair, she's not allowed to wear street punk clothing, she's not allow to show nipple, etc. etc.. 신 I love DPKR propaganda /s
99,9% Alphabetization
list not in alphabetical order, straight to a ~~work camp~~ state funded retreat
For anyone who like me was just confused and ignored it: They meant "literacy" but translated it badly.
Must have been the .1
Well rule number 3 on the sidebar says be skeptical of your sources, so I'm quite sure that this checks notes Facebook meme is correct in saying alphabetization.
99.9% alphabetization
Why do tankies like to post poorly translated propaganda? Like at least take the time to localize that shit bruh wtf.
Because they are poorly localized.
They are not who they say they are, full stop.
That was one of the wildest comment chains I have read. If anybody is interested: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/7781901
The only sane person I found in this post is @ITguru@feddit.nl lmao
It's a pretty common thread for tankies. Comes up probably once a week.
99.9% alphabetization? This is what the USA has been missing. The founding fathers failed us.
In a 99.9% alphabetized America, "USA" becomes "ASU". This one simple trick turns bourgeois imperialist hegemon into a party school!!!
I can't believe they choose North Korea out of all places
They love authoritarianism, they're bootlickers, so they latch onto Russia, China and North Korea. They completely ignore real communist countries like Cuba or Vietnam.
Cuba is also quite authoritarian afaik. Just not the warmongering kind.
So is Vietnam. It's an authoritarian one-party state with no political freedoms, no free press etc.
Nah, I've just been there and talked to everyone. They say it's all good
