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

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, rather than engaging in unrelated arguments.
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 permanently banned.
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.

And how do you determine that?
You don't know what China has done to Hong Kong, Taiwan, Tibet, the South China Sea, the Uyghers, North Korea, their citizens in the US via Chinese secret police, citizens in Africa....? Go look it up. Slavery is well established there.
I don't support the ruling class, I've told you that, but you certainly support China's ruling class.
You linked the book to BARELY defend your point about China, which isn't communist anyway by your own admission- https://lemmy.world/post/34398235/18798455
Here's the comment chain ^ I specified China isn't this utopia you claim, and then you cited that book.
So no, it wasn't to mansplain a topic I am already aware of. It was to defend your love of fascists and slavers.
You already lost anyway by refusing to argue in good faith before. You posted 1 source that disagrees with you. How pathetic. If you want real debate, then go back to my original post to you and argue it in good faith. Until then, you lost.
Lost? What did you win? You want some kind of liberal participation medal?
I’m well aware of your claims that you so happily deep throated from western media. It’s all garbage. You’re supporting the ruling class by relaying their stories. Just like the good right winger you are.
Okay, I accept your loss and that you quit, fascist. No more to discuss. May you live in the world you want to create, my curse to you.
