It is time.
I propose the following.
Zero Tolerance for Discrimination
Discrimination in any form is strictly forbidden. This includes:
- 1.1 Racism: Prejudice or hostility based on race or ethnicity.
- 1.2 Sexism: Discrimination or hostility based on gender or sex.
- 1.3 Homophobia and Transphobia: Hatred or prejudice directed at LGBTQ+ individuals.
- 1.4 Ableism: Mocking or belittling individuals with disabilities.
- 1.5 Ageism: Discrimination or prejudice based on someone’s age.
- 1.6 Religious Discrimination: Targeting individuals for their faith or lack thereof, including but not limited to Islamophobia or Antisemitism.
- 1.7 Classism: Judging others based on their social or economic status.
- 1.8 Colourism: Bias or prejudice based on skin tone.
- 1.9 Body Shaming (Sizeism): Mocking someone’s body shape or size.
No Hate Speech or Harmful Ideologies
We stand against all forms of hate speech and dangerous ideologies. This includes:
- 2.1 White Supremacy: Advocacy of racial superiority or supremacy theories.
- 2.2 Neo-Nazism: Promotion or support of Nazi-related symbols, beliefs, or ideologies.
- 2.3 Encouragement of Violence: Posts that glorify, incite, or encourage harm toward individuals or groups.
- 2.4 Harassment: Repeated or targeted attacks, threats, or intimidation.
- 2.5 Glorification of Harmful Behaviour: Including but not limited to self-harm, suicide, or abuse.
Any posts, comments, or behaviour perpetuating these harmful ideologies will be removed, and offenders will face swift action. Consequences for violating the code of conduct will range from warnings and post deletion to temporary or permanent bans from the forum.
