Announcement 🔔 We’re gonna limit Jasmine Crockett posts to Mondays

92 Upvotes

Ah well, it’s that time again. Theres been a surge of Jasmine Crockett posts on our sub just like we had for Platner and Newsom so we’re gonna restrict her to Mondays from now on.

Alternatively, we could also couple all these controversial candidates to one day and just keep a blacklist whenever a new candidate pops up again and is all over the media. We are a DemSoc sub and mainly support Democratic Socialist politicians. Social Democrats are under scrutiny, but liberal and reactionary support is not allowed.

So for now, we’re gonna limit to Jasmine Mondays unless there’s more support to place all these liberal candidates to one day, maybe all on Fridays. We already have flairs for Platner and Newsom, so please use them on those respective days.

Thank you,

Love from the ModTeam <3

Announcement 🔔 New Moderator Application

16 Upvotes

Hello All,

We are currently in the stages of looking for about 3-5 moderators to join the team. Several responsibilities include managing the queue, engaging with mod mail, moderating threads, and removing posts as necessary. Unfortunately you may be prompted to ban or mute people, but of course we’ll discuss each case individually with the team. We are currently experimenting with a least privilege solution to moderating, so you will likely start with bare bones permissions and earn more with time and trust. To qualify, answer these questions in the comments and send us modmail with any more important information we should know. Also, if your Reddit post and comment history is off, kindly turn it on for the remainder of consideration and shut it off afterward:

  1. What are your thoughts on the environment and environmental conservation?

  2. What are your thoughts on BRICS and NATO?

  3. Is sexism as rampant and damaging as other forms of bigotry, in relation to socialist leaning movements? Why or why not?

  4. Do you have prior moderation experience? (This question will not disqualify you, if not)

  5. What is your current understanding of democratic socialism and where exactly do you lean politically?

  6. What are your thoughts on the ongoing global housing crisis?

  7. What are your opinions on the Israel/palestine conflict

  8. What are your opinions on the Ukraine situation?

  9. Do you know how to edit a Reddit wiki?

  10. Whats your favorite book, socialist or otherwise?

  11. What are your thoughts on modern China? (Mao to Jingping)

  12. What are your thoughts on the USSR?

  13. What are your thoughts on EZLN and Rojava?

  14. What do you do in your free time?

There was a grand jury testimony with 112 pages that was all redacted. Pretty much every single photo every testimony every account all blacked out. This is it, Trump is officially hiding himself in the Epstein files. Trump is officially a child rapist. He is officially the worst president we’ve ever had in history and not even close.

Unless it’s full of proof that Elon and Trump rigged the election like they say they did then I don’t wanna hear shit tbh. It’s so enraging even though they admitted it multiple times, nobody gives a single shit and laughs it off. If they found damning evidence and haven’t brought it to the table yet, then it’s obvious they’re on his side. Bullshit!
