Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.
No spam.
Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

MODERATORS
Today I learned that voting for a democratic socialist is fascist.
But how is that in any way compatible with libertarianism?
I presume not "libertarian" in the old sense of anarchism. Even that doesn't particularly like electoral politics at all.
I don't have to agree with everything Mamdani says to realize that the establishment Democrat party is incapable of standing up to this administration. Hence the whole political pluralism thing.
Libertarians are overwhelmingly siding with republicans. Doesn’t that mean anything?
Uh no. Does the USSR mean anything when talking to an anarchist?
Trans rights are human rights Free Palestine. Abolish ICE.
That any clearer for you?
I'm really confused how someone who values human rights would vote libertarian.
libertarians literally don't want social support to be a thing, how are they even close to a demsoc
Americans don't know what words mean that's why
No, but it's also not American Libertarian
Correct. I'm an actual libertarian. Not a classical liberal.
then you probably shouldn't use the American Libertarian flag for your meme
Nah. I like it.
You use (and say you like) the symbols of a specific political party but then defend yourself saying that you mean the ideology as a whole (and a huge "no true Scotsman") while criticizing a different specific political party. Maybe don't use those symbols if you wanna make your point better.
Nah. I like it.
You sound like people that fly confederate flags but say "It's heritage, not hate."
Cool.
You think it's cool you sound like a racist?
You can't tell the difference between ideologies like Geolibertarianism and anarcho-capitalism. Why would I care what I sound like to a politically illiterate person like you? Anyone who disagrees with you probably sounds like a racist.
Can you? You're the one using the flag because "you like it."
That flag predates American libertarians and even America itself
The Swastika predates Nazi Germany as a symbol for many years, but if you post a flag with a Swastika on it, people are going to assume you mean a Nazi. Once a symbol gets adopted and popularized with a group, it gets associated with that group, regardless of prior meaning.
Nobody but the truly ignorant are going to think you're a Nazi for flying this, and it's borderline racist to suggest otherwise
