Memes

This community is committed to centering the perspectives and voices of the Global South. As such, all posts and comments must demonstrate respect for this fundamental principle.

This is not a platform for imperialist or colonialist mindsets. Users seeking a forum for such views will find ample accommodation across Silicon Valley platforms and numerous other Fediverse instances. That is not the purpose of this space.

Here, we consciously prioritize the voices of the global majority—those routinely oppressed and silenced elsewhere. Our moderation and enforcement policies exist explicitly to uphold this mission. If you are accustomed to norms prevalent on mainstream Western platforms, please understand that you are now participating in a community where those norms do not apply.

Before posting or commenting, especially if you reside in a first world Western nation, we urge you to:

1. Inform yourself on the issues at hand.
2. Consider how your words might be received by those from the regions you discuss.
3. If unsure, choose to listen rather than speak.

This reminder is prompted by recent global political events. Should you face moderation, the reason will be visible in the modlog. Contact the moderators only if you genuinely believe an error was made. Otherwise, please understand that an action likely felt permissible to you—based on your experience elsewhere on the internet—may contradict the core values of this community.
