Are you an Anarchist? The answer might surprise you!

Rules:

  1. Be respectful
  2. Don't be a nazi
  3. Argue about the point and not the person
  4. This is not the place to debate the merits of anarchism itself. While discussion is encouraged, getting in your “epic dunks on the anarkiddies” is not. As a result of the instance’s poor moderation policies and hostility toward anarchists by default, lemmygrad users are encouraged not to post here, though not explicitly disallowed if they aren’t just looking to start a fight.

Who are you to make the rules?? A community can make their own rules, wtf...

I'm not trying to make the rules, I'm just trying to make my point.

Why not start a poll for new rule ideas instead of the 2-3 mods making all the decisions? Wouldn't that be more in line with the philosophy?

rule n° 4 is just basics of online moderation to have a safe space. And it was discussed here.

what philosophy? Online forums?

[–] krolden@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No, anarchism. Thanks for being obtuse

Hi. I'm new here. But if I may be so bold as to dip my toe in here for a second... Do we want to have this community ruled by majority or by consensus?
