    hey there, this–and your subsequent posts downthread–are really not an acceptable way to start engaging in political discussion on our community. they run afoul of the be(e) nice ethos in a lot of ways and they do not leave any room for serious discussion. we’ll be removing them as such.

      If this is the case, then you have to make clear what is acceptable, trust me im tame compared to my other conservatives on social media alternatives, i just would appreciate a clear set of rules, do you have a link or screenshot of said rules?

        There aren’t clear rules by design

        https://beehaw.org/post/107014

        The issue as I see it with modern social media is the way in which rules are enforced. There are many good reasons to itemize specific behavior which is not allowed, but the downside is that extremely specific rules are easy to maneuver around. We’ve all experienced someone who’s a real jerk on the internet but manages to never get banned because they never explicitly violate any rules. I’m not sexist, they’ll claim, but happen to post a lot of articles calling into question modern feminism or criticize the wage gap.
