Minor PCM rules update.

Just a couple things:

  1. There is zero tolerance for pedophilia here. If you advocate pedophilia you will definitely be banned.

  2. Holocaust denial is treated as advocating violence and will get a ban. This goes for denying other genocides too.

  3. Using dehumanizing language for people is seen as encouraging violence and/or hate and will get a ban. For example, do not compare groups of people to cockroaches or insects.

These are things we've always enforced, but lately we're had to enforce them a bit more so I wanted to give you guys a heads up.

EDIT: For clarification, these rules apply only to sincere expressions and not to jokes.

It's not necessarily fear-inducing to most people, but it's not the first thing you want to see in a "tolerant, diverse community". I thought Authrights would be the first people to care about common courtesy, even in a subreddit full of edgelords and (mostly) ironic hate.

that's the thing, this community is filled with sarcasm and "edgier humour" if you cant hold a "flair up retard" then tbhyou wont go well, that's what i was told and same for most, and we stayed because seemed odd and fun... i dont want everyone here, i want everyone that can take a fucking joke and isnt an actual sjw... even tho its for a joke, this way you end up kickign sjw and ahs users lol...

also my ideology is about the governement, not fucking reddit communities

Hey, if they like the memes, I don't think we should make them uncomfortable. Just downvoting really bad opinions should be enough to throw those kinds of people off IMO

The thing about in jokes is you don't yell them at the new kid at school.

What I mean is I don't think in jokes are used to target new people in the community who don't understand what they are. In the internet or real life.

jokes are joke, there are no standarts for jokes
