Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

They also unironically have been using "the Palestinian Question"

So damn infuriating

The problem with fascism is it works. It's so much harder to have a representative democracy that survives, response to people's grievances and needs... it requires a sense of community.

Wow just take that damn mask off why don't you?

Could you elaborate? I'm not pro fascist, I'm saying being a open democracy is hard, and its tempting for people in power to default to fascist tools.
