note: This is fake news, but they celebrate it anyway.
Reading the comments, it really does feel that most tankies are demagogues and roleplayers.

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.

Most of them are larpers, yeah. Majority are white rich middle-aged men or teenagers with too much money.
they need a holiday in cambodia
Cambodia? what do you mean?
"Holiday in Cambodia" is a song by the punk rock band Dead Kennedys.
It's weird, huh? I would have expected them to be people hanging by a thread, with nothing to lose, homeless or nearly there...but tankies seem to be angrier than these examples of people and seem to tend to be better off than average. 🙃
It's usually caused by guilt and shame of being rich. But refusing to give up their riches.
I mean, their most well-known online figurehead is Hasan, who lives in a mansion and dresses in thousand-dollar clothing and wears expensive jewellery
Dumbasses. The word you're looking for is dumbasses.

How mentally deranged do you have to be to come up with something like that?
Be a teenager or a manchild
That instagram page belongs to a record label and its most recent post is calling Mr Beast the king of youtube because he has so many subscribers. Only the finest sources I see
Edit: same user recently posted a screenshot of an article by a fucking Infowars writer (and not to make fun of it)
