The change is now complete.
The changes to the politics discussion policy were prompted by an increase in heated and divisive discussions on political topics. This was causing a negative and hostile environment for members of the community, and the changes were made to promote respectful and productive discussions.
The main changes include stricter moderation of political discussions to ensure respectful language and behavior, a limit on the frequency of political posts, and a requirement for sources to be cited in all political discussions.
These changes do not aim to limit freedom of speech, but rather to promote civil and respectful discussions. Members are still free to express their opinions, but they must do so in a respectful and constructive manner.
Yes, these changes will apply to all political discussions on the platform. This includes discussions in forums, comments, and any other forms of communication on the platform.
The changes will be enforced by moderators who will be monitoring discussions and addressing any violations of the policy. Users can also report any inappropriate behavior or language to the moderators for further action.
