"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"
Welcome to MoG!

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.

Can someone explain to someone out of the loop what's transphobic about his post?
Saying that the topic of "caring about transgender and LGBT issues" is promoted by the bourgeois is clearly not intended to indicate they respect those communities concerns.
The "men in women's sports" thing is just straight up transphobic, sexist misinformation.
It shouldn't need to be explained, but using "trans" as a label to attack a woman to delegitimize her sporting victory is just a hot mess of issues.
Eh, yes and no
The subject is still debated, and there's no clear scientific consensus, even though the lemmy community will make you believe so
Fuck off conservative troll.
Fuck off ragebaiter?
I mean in just a couple of searches you find out that I’m not wrong
Maybe one day you’ll learn that insulting other people that don’t agree with you isn’t the way
And apparently I’m conservative now. Didn’t know you knew my voting opinions.. which you got wrong
Coming into a year old thread to stir shit up is basically the definition of trolling. Doing so in favor of the argument that there's a plague of men pretending to be women to take over women's sports is a conservative talking point.
Arguing that there's scientific uncertainty about how often this is coming up or if the boxer is actually a secret man is... Well I hope you're trolling, otherwise you're a bad person.
So explain to me how telling you to fuck off is "ragebait"?
Maybe one day you'll realize that no one cares about your opinion on "the way".
