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 it 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.
Off-topic Discussion — Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post, rather than engaging in arguments that lack mutual agreement.
Brigading — If you're here because this community was linked in another thread, please refrain from voting, commenting, or manipulating the post in any way. This includes alt accounts. All votes are public, and if you are found to be brigading, you will be banned.
Tankies can explain their views, but may be criticised or challenged for them. Any minor infraction of the rules may result in a warning and possibly a temporary ban.
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 last only 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction doubles the duration. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
Not that there's anything wrong with content warnings. But you'd think people who actively celebrate massacres and call for the death of others can handle a children's cartoon lol
Idk dude there's some songs that remind me of the past that I don't want to hear anymore, but you know what I don't do? Make that everyone else's problem by demanding a content warning or any such nonsense if there's a possibility the song will be played. What I do is fast forward or go to the bathroom for 3m20s, or just sit there and ignore it.
I could get behind it if there's a full on rape scene or something, like CW A Serbian Film for sure, but My Little Goddamn Pony? At some point it becomes your responsibility to deal with your own triggers, not the world's responsibility to manage them for you (and coincidentally that's what most therapists say as well.)
You seem to be very upset for people taking effort to be accommodating.
