they weren't forced, they voluntarily entered the train to avoid getting shot
So the train's operators were actually protecting them.
Had me in the first half, not gonna lie
Fuckin A, I've been enjoying your posts over there, wtf is wrong with these people
Tankies love to brigade.
I actually generally prefer posting WW1-era stuff or oddities, but after getting a bunch of tankies bitching on photos I posted of the Romanian Revolution (Cake-Distributor was my favorite of those), I didn't want to change theme and make it seem like they could bitch their way into silence over Soviet-aligned atrocities.
Proceed
I'll post one or two more, but if the tankie howling dies down, I'll let it lie there. I don't want to turn HistoryPorn into a place just to hate on the Sovs, but I also don't want to contribute to it spreading a culture of denialism over Soviet atrocities.
I mean I honestly don't know what your game here is other than to make nazis look like the good guys because that's the only crowd you attract with posts like that
Nazis have always loved the chance to defend themselves in WW2, and white supremacists here in the US are probably the biggest haters of communism in this country, hands down. So if you're not leading up to "nazis were right all along" then what are you even getting at?
Modern day topics are fine, but stay away from WW2
Acknowledging that Soviets committed genocide is... making Nazis look good?
You wanna run that by me again?

Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!

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.
