Seriously? Political questions, political related questions, and international political related questions.
The one you listed is for essentially for posting articles.
Seriously? You're this pedantic on the word discussion? Ok I will amend my first comment to:
We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban ~~discussion~~questions and the resulting discussion in the comments?
Jeez all over again.
It's not a small topic, it's a small community to set up all these tiny communities.
Community is what we called subs on the other site.
What's wrong is fracturing. Lemmy is not so massive that it can sustain niche communities for every little topic.
... And now you can't ask anything about politics. There's was doubtless going to be political questions to ask, and politic adjacent (where do I move) that will all be removed.
And you can't even ask about effects on the world either! Gaza, Ukraine, NATO, trade, tariffs, etc. Are those going to be removed? All valid questions, but sounds political to me.
Like way to shut down shit tons of conversation.
We just had probably the most consequential election of our life and you want to ban discussion? Jeezus.
No kidding.
They're probably just happy they're not being bombed. (Anything fall on them?)
