1) Be nice and; have fun

2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

thanks for the heads up. I just unjoined all lemmy.ml communities, and blocked the instance. That sort of censorship is not a good thing.
Some of them came here from Reddit when chapo trap house got banned. Others are straight up BRICS propaganda accounts.
Ok what even the hell is BRICS at this point? It's geopolitical "stop trying to make Fetch happen!" by now, two of it's members are in active decline, one is at the edge of being a failed state, and the other two are about as actually committed to some kind of anti-western bloc as the average American prison is to respecting human rights.
Yep. It's a joke. Was always going to be a joke. Maybe without authoritarian assholes leading the two largest members it could have become something.
Read the comments. Apparently some of their ilk are here too.
Good, that way it's easier to block them, no need to look for them elsewhere.
You see them all over the place.
ml is usually decent. Hexbear is where things go off the rails
