Rules

1) Civility: Do not insult, harass, or act aggressively towards other users for any reason;
1.1) Comments that consist entirely of personal or group based insults are not permitted;
1.2) Consistent petty attacks against other users will result in bans;
1.3) Comments or submissions that have no function but to antagonise will be removed;
1.4) Members across the political spectrum are welcome and should be treated no differently to anyone else;

2) No Discrimination or Bigotry: Do not partake in, defend, or excuse any form of discrimination or bigotry; 2.1) This includes but is not limited to racism, antisemitism, islamophobia, and transphobia;
2.2) Mods will offer clarifications where there is dispute, but will ultimately use their judgement to ensure vulnerable groups are protected. Please also see our wiki;

3) Do not support or condone illegal or violent activity;

4) Responsible Posting: Users are responsible for the content of the submissions they make. If a submission’s linked content contains rule breaking content, users will be expected to explain their reasons for sharing it;

5) Quality Contributions: Users should engage with the community using on-topic, honest contributions;
5.1) Off-topic posting: Comments that fail to engage with the content of the post will be considered off topic and removed (e.g, repeat contextless complaints about the source, the user, unrelated topics unless the relevance is explained, or spam and/or trolling);
5.2) Do not mischaracterise or strawman other users points, positions, or identities when you could instead ask for clarification. Users that consistently fail to engage in this way will be moderated;
5.3) Users displaying repeat patterns of fallacious argumentation or trolling (e.g. JAQing, sealioning or begging the question even after being informed or asked to stop) will be moderated;

6) Editorialisation: Submitted links should have a title identical to the source. Submissions or self-texts deemed to be misrepresenting the source will be removed;

7) Spam & Self-promotion: If you want to link to your own subreddit, website or blog, ask the mods for approval first. Single-issue posters will be banned. Posters who spam links but fail to engage in the comments will have submissions removed;

8) Discussion of moderation should be raised by mod mail or in separate submissions, not in comment sections. Posts regarding users or moderation choices from other communities are not permitted;
8.1) Highlighting that a user is breaking the rules will be treated as backseat moderation. Just use the report function.

9) Social Media Policy: Direct links to social media posts or screencaps of social media are banned. The discussion of noteworthy tweets can be done via a self-post. Self-posts including tweets are expected to be accompanied by a meaningful comment from the user explaining why the submission was noteworthy, not just a throwaway sentence;
9.1) One exemption to this rule is anything consisting of data alone, for example, polling or election results;

10) The rules are guidelines, moderators will exercise discretion. Breaking the spirit of the rules will be treated as if it is breaking the rules.
10.1) All of Reddit’s site rules apply;
10.2) Moderators may impose specific rules on individuals to limit disruption;
