I thought I could take this down after the election, apparently not.

Please review the sidebar.

  1. No self posts.
  2. No meme/image/shitposting.
  3. No video links.
  4. No social media. This includes Substack and Medium blogposts.
  5. Doxing people, even Nazis, gets you banned.

Those posts are better directed to Political Discussion or Political Memes.

!politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world

!politicalmemes@lemmy.world

Articles from trusted sources are absolutely welcome.

Items 1-4 can be used in comments, they just can’t be submitted as posts.

The usual lemmy.world rules apply too:

No calls for violence. Full stop.

We’re seeing an uptick in trolling already, trolls will be banhammered without warning.

    1. No self posts.

    I strongly think this rule should change, it is important we are able to humanize each other, make our own arguments. Self posts are important way to do that. I think some guidelines to keep it constructive and high effort is warranted but an outright ban I’m against.

    1. No meme/image/shitposting.

    I’m fine with this, but maybe a weekly mega thread to blow off steam in would be healthy?

    No calls for violence. Full stop.

    I understand the legal obligations here. I’ll also point out the president elect is openly calling for widespread violence. If some can say “cops should shoot/arrest/deport <xyz>” that is a call for violence.

    Mods, You have a hard, thankless job, so thank you.
