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.

Your comment was a low effort strawman (and I suspect you to be little more than a liberal troll) for three reasons:
From your second comment you have effectively proven that you are deeply unwilling to learn about the liberation of the workers. You are either deeply uniformed and/or you simply do not want to be informed. If you have any intrest in genuenly understanding my economic views feel free to read Think It Over by the IWW (its a very short read).
Tell me, did the Nordic countries reject democracy when they embraced socialism?
This is just a simple question, I’m sure you are willing to give an answer to it.
Tell me, whats so free about your Liberal Democracy? Congratulations you get to choose between two politicans but they're both owned by the same corporations. You get free speech until it threatens capital or state. Lastly you enjoy the right to oppress people but only if you're privileged. Right now we live in a dictatorship of capital, a system build on imperialism and today runs on neocolonialism.
Yet you arent guaranteed shelter, you aren't guaranteed food, you aren't even guaranteed to see more than a sliver of the fruits of your labor. You own nothing, you have nothing, everything that you think you have is crumbling around you as the liberal system falls.
How the hell would that be implemented? No genuenly because at least liberals have an ideology, you just seem to be spewing nonsense. So sorry on my end for assuming you had a coherent if not misinformed ideology.
