There should be some moderators looking after this community.

The sidebar should be filled with at least a description of what this is for, and some basic rules. Also posts/comments that are off-topic or break server/community rules should be removed. I think 3 mods to start would be OK, they can appoint more mods if needed.

If we can’t find moderatos, we’ll have to close this community.

      Try posting anything that looks critical of democrats on r/politics like “totally reproducible psych study proves dems are all idiots!!!” and see if it stays up.

        Not sure why you think this has anything to do with /r/politics but do you have an actual example of what you’re describing or just hyperbolic nonsense like “totally reproducible psych study proves dems are all idiots!!!”

        I would hope so. “Totally reproducible psych study proves [insert any group here] are all idiots!!!” is bigotted shitposting and will just beget heated arguments, not civil discussion.

        But, yeah, r/Politics is basically just r/Liberal. I’ve seen plenty benign only-offensive-if your-liberal posts and comments removed from there.

          it’s been my experience that conservative subs welcome discussion and liberal ones are ban-happy circlejerking echo chambers… but I am probably at little biased.
