I’d like to be as transparent as I can with the rules. Rule 2 was added …due to recent events.

If anyone has any suggestions for preemptive rules or modification to existing rules I am open to any changes, please suggest them here.

    I don’t think posts or discussions pushing narratives that are critical of the few democracies of the world, and lacking any criticism of actual dictatorships are made in good faith.

    So I can’t criticize the actions of democratic Israel unless I also throw in a criticism of, say, North Korea. Otherwise, it would be clear that I am acting in bad faith.

    Well, before I leave, I’ll just point out that North Korea is neither conducting nor funding a genocide, which is not something I can say about Israel or the United States of America.

      You can criticize whoever you want. Israel and NK are both not friendly nations to human rights right now at the moment. But that being said you should balance criticism with something constructive as a suggestion.

      It’s easy to tear the world down, but hundred times harder to build it back up.

        So if I say the United States is a racist genocidal state, I should balance it with a constructive suggestion like “The United States should stop being a racist genocidal state”.

        Is that what you want?
