If my other admin wants to add anything to this, please do so in the comments below. Basically, we are a free-speech instance, but all crazy and controversial comments and posts will be limited to the dank, microwave taco and dank memes going forward with special considerations given to the Donald’s community. We want a functional website and I think in all other communities aside from the ones I’ve listed above, we should have civil discussion and good faith conversation. If people go into communities that are not designated for crazy and controversial posts and start drama, then you will be banned from that community, but not banned from the instance.
We will not be allowed to play well with the reddit transplants. They want a space as “curated” (or even more extremely) than what they left. If this place isn’t full of left-thing and virtue signalling they’re always going to call us Nazis in the end.
So the best would be to try and gather all the normal “right” wing, libertarians, hippies and so on. Everyone who thinks free speech is important and for good reason. Honestly our group is vastly larger than theirs, it’s just more splintered and have plenty who aren’t yet internet savvy. And probably a lot have internalised self censorship.
