The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, 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.

Identity politics, gun control, immigration, lagging economic recovery for labor, inflation and a distinct lack of ability to formulate a simple message. Sank Dems with the working class.
Policies are nice but most Americans don’t have a clue and don’t research anything.
Kamala spouted a bunch of policies and no message of hope. Trump had a bunch of headline grabbing antics and one liners. Guess which one wins with most Americans.
Identity politics? That's a republican issue. They bring it up. The most democrats do is block, but all the punches are thrown by the right in campaigns. I didn't even hear a gun control proposal this round.
Did you happen to visit Kamala’s website during the election. She listed who she represented…. Black males, Latino Males, no mention of working class white peoples.
That is identity politics. If you wonder why white women voted for Trump, they did it for their sons who aren’t mentioned at all.
Both Kamala and Biden championed another assault weapons ban.
How is this true?
No, it's not true. The liberals never had the working class' backs.
Liberalism fetishizes capitalism, remember?
I don’t doubt Bernie Sanders though - he seems like a straight truth teller.
He's not consciously lying - Bernie, like all liberals, actually believes you can (somehow) represent both the interests of the working class while also representing the interests of the capitalist class that is parasitizing off their labor. As any leftist will tell you, this is pure delusion.
I'm very intrigued by your definition of Liberalism. It doesn't correlate with liberalism across the world.
It doesn’t correlate with liberalism across the world.
Really? Find me an anti-capitalist liberal. that should be very easy if this...
It doesn’t correlate with liberalism across the world.
...was the truth.
I'm an anti-capitalist liberal.
No, Clyde. You're not.
You are just politically incoherent, like people who call themselves "fiscally conservative and economically progressive" (or whatever claptrap so-called "centrists" tell themselves).
Liberalism fetishizes capitalism. If you're anti-capitalist, you have abandoned liberalism.
This is not complicated.
Next you'll be telling me you're an anarcho-fascist.
u mad bro?
This makes you less of a capitalist bootlicker... how, exactly?
I don't have to prove myself to you because there's nothing to prove.
It's a pissing contest, and I refuse to get piss on me.
But if that's your thing, I won't kink shame.
Again. This makes you less of a capitalist bootlicker… how, exactly?
Of course you didn't provide your own. That's typical, sadly enough. We all know there are varying definitions, and if you're going to undercut someone else's, which may be a reasonable thing to do, why not bring yours to the table? ... But only if you care to continue the conversation.
