That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

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.

Lemmy is absolutely not beating the political tribalism allegations, holy.
I hate to be that guy, but when you say "Nazi," are you referring to a literal 1940s National Socialist German Workers Party 3rd/4th Reich "Aryan Race is superior and Jews are evil" Nazi (aka a real actual Nazi), or someone with a different political/social opinion/ideology from you (ie, a Republican/Democrat/whatever is opposite of your political/social ideology)?
I was on Reddit for like 13 years and never got banned for less than positive interactions with people that said they supported real, actual Nazis.
Given how Reddit bans are currently being dealt out, it's likely a "Aryan Race is superior and Jews are evil" Republican.
Well, Spez stated in an interview if society collapsed, he would be one of the ones in charge, due to his superiority.
"Steve Huffman, cofounder and CEO of Reddit, is confident he can emerge as a winner after the collapse of the social order. As he told Osnos, “I also have this somewhat egotistical view that I’m a pretty good leader. I will probably be in charge, or at least not a slave, when push comes to shove.” This seems at the very least debatable—perhaps even wishful thinking."

There was an interview where a tech reporter sat in on a meeting between Techbroligarchs, and they were literally discussing how to keep their security and staff loyal. The subject of "Shock Collars" was seriously discussed.

Good luck with that when the your Security takes your family hostage, Genius.
These guys are that delusional.
They are terrified. They should be. We should make them more afraid.
Knowing nothing about the cofounder, just Aaron Schwartz, it sounds like the bad guy inherited the company
