The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

MODERATORS
It is such an extreme dysfunctional problem. The right would hate immigrants, sexual/reproductive freedom without Russian interference. If some disinformation is sourced from Russia, GOP fully supporting it is a GOP blamed act. Equivalent to them paying cheaper Russian bot farms for GOP purposes.
The complete acceptance of Russophobia propaganda around here, and the economic damage from supporting a losing war on Russia, was a factor in losing a close election, though GOP vote rigging and voter suppression, and an Israel first DNC that supports Trump, was a bigger factor. The economic damage of a losing war based on propaganda disinformation, meant that Biden could not criticize the war as defense for inflation policies.
War on Russia will never make you happy. For all I know, midterms democrat strategy will be based on resuming war on Russia. The demonization of peace because "peace means Putin wins", and so peace means being a servant of Putin, is both so simplistic but so effective in causing deranged views.
Yeah, as far as I can tell, American Democrats have just created there own version of secular Christianity, where there's just ontologically a single source of all evil on Earth and that's Putin. It basically means that domestic fascism is basically given a free parse, and leaves liberals trying to prevent the slide into fascism with ultranationalism, xenophobia, militancy and McCarthiest paranoia, which doesn't work for obvious reasons.
Yes if Putin is responsible for all problems, then the only solution to everything is to be angrier at Russia.
Yeah, that's what I mean. Currently the democrats don't seem very interested in actually taking action at all to address their situation, but if they actually tried to do something, how could it not just be McCarthiest purges of "Russian assets", government censorship of "Russian propaganda" and belligerent militarism. Essentially it seems like the Democrats have rendered themselves ideologically incapable of meaningfully opposing the fascist slide.
