Geopolitics - Lemmy.ca
lemmy.ca
For serious consideration of world politics as it relates to the growing multipolar world reality. Basic rules: Be KIND, polite, civil, and understanding. Racism and/or hate will not be tolerated. Dialogue helps with understanding. #BLM #AboringinalRights No, identity politics, don’t matter when the World is aflame!

The sole moderator doesn’t even follow their own rules: https://lemmy.ca/post/22741340?scrollToComments=true

I’ll just say it - it’s a Russian propaganda community. Is there any reason this community needs to exist on Lemmy.ca? Is there a rule against blatant astroturfing / propaganda / misinformation? I don’t think the 5 rules in the sidebar are going to be enough to stop an army of trolls:

No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, > or xenophobia. Be respectful. Everyone should feel welcome here. No porn. Use the NSFW tag when needed. No Ads / Spamming. Bot accounts need to be flagged as such in their settings.

Maybe time to get ahead of it?

      Depends on whether you’re using an app or website, but there should be a way regardless

      I use the web interface. The block button is at the top right of a community’s page. If you use an app it might be in a slightly different place
