This suggestion or issue is currently under investigation.

How about the following?​

❌


1. Government or Electoral Politics
  • Politicians, elections, political parties
    (e.g., “Trump 2024,” “Biden ruined the economy,” “Tory policies are failing”)

2. Laws, Public Policies, or Legislation
  • Debates on gun control, healthcare, education, etc.
    (e.g., “Universal healthcare is a human right,” “Tax policies are unfair”)

3. Geopolitical Conflicts
  • Wars, international disputes, sanctions, foreign policies
    (e.g., “Russia-Ukraine war,” “Israel-Palestine conflict,” “China’s stance on Taiwan”)

4. Identity Politics & Social Debates
  • Topics involving race, gender, religion, or sexuality in political contexts
    (e.g., “DEI is ruining hiring,” “Trans women in sports,” “Religious freedom laws”)

5. Politicized Conspiracies or Commentary

6. Political Memes, Jokes, or Satire
(e.g., “Let’s Go Brandon,” “Tax the Rich” memes, political image edits)



⚠️ Neutral​


You can mention holidays — as long as you keep it neutral.


✅ Allowed:


  • “We’ll be closed for Labor Day.”
  • “Here’s a Labor Day discount.”
  • “Enjoy the long weekend!”

❌ Not Allowed:


  • “Labor Day is socialist propaganda.”
  • “Let’s talk about workers’ rights and unions.”
  • “Capitalists stole Labor Day from the left.”

Keep holiday mentions non-political and on-topic.


I would also refrain from posting about someone dying that held a seat of power. like RIP Pope Francis, since he may not be liked by anyone and is the symbol of the Catholic church who has done some terrible things in the past.. The same would be like making a post about Hitler, there are a small percentage of people that still believe he was right. Both would give you ire of people, since both held a power.

NOT COMPARING THE POPE WITH HITLER ABOVE!!!!!!!


But if it were a famous musician or film maker, sure go ahead, but if it were Epstein + Trump/Royal family ties that would be a NO again.

But most holidays are political or religious in nature.
Holidays are built from the winners in history to celebrate their win.
There only a very few handful that ain't
And i'm not talking about Valentines day
even tho that is a sad reminder for all the singles out there cough @UnusualSubstance
but it isn't political but it sure is religious.
It's actually originates from Saint Valentine, a Christian martyr

What about Easter?
Our cute residential bunny @Yes
but did you know, it's actually a very religious & important week in Christianity.

What about Halloween, it's connections to Samhain
surely St. Patrick’s Day isn't political or religious
but that's where you are wrong, it has Christianity all over those green little clovers.

You could generalize those holidays since those are mainly commercialized heavily. So something like " what deals are you running on halloween/easter" But for Easter it is heavily connected to religion, but the bunny isn't ( connected to pagan folklore highly doubt anyone still follows that)
These are widely recognized, mostly apolitical, and safe to mention for greetings, sales, or scheduling:


  • New Year’s Day
  • Valentine’s Day
  • April Fool’s Day
  • Easter (if mentioned in a secular or casual context)
  • Mother’s Day / Father’s Day
  • Independence Day (U.S.)⚠️ Avoid nationalistic or anti-government commentary
  • Halloween
  • Thanksgiving (U.S. and Canada)⚠️ Avoid historical debates
  • Christmas / Hanukkah / Diwali / Eid / Lunar New YearAllowed if used for greetings or inclusive celebrations, not religious debates
  • Black Friday / Cyber Monday (purely commercial)
  • New Year's Eve
Would be some of the holidays that would be allowed since mostly everything about them is either transactional or seen in positive light.

I think everyone is overlooking the fact that we have a mod called @God and that's OK? :ROFLMAO: :LOL:

Which is linked to the Anglo-Saxon goddess
a religious figure for rebirth renewal and lots of sex
So, we are back to the origins and roots still being religious tho

Let's be clear, i have zero issues with them at all.
but we are once again making exceptions
We are pretty much saying
it's ok cuz now its globally recognized.
That's a stance, and that reflects on OO leadership political & religious views.

What happens when other more religious and political events becomes "mainstream"?

@Rem got a point, but keeping certain holidays where a mass amount do not really care about if its religious or not, like Valentines day, it is a good day for shops and everyone selling goods. same goes with Halloween (All Hallows). Same thing with Christmas. ( Santa = not religious)

Turkey day would be another story though !

What do you have against Turkey?

The meat if you cook or right is a good choice most don't like it because it ends up dry = shit cook.

Reported for turkey bashing
 
At some point the rules started changing faster than I could follow so I just stopped reporting.
Tell me about that mate. Then they went onto ' insufficuent proof of any wrongdoing' lol.



Personally for me if you're American and have the Stars & Stripes as your avatar, that's fine. If you're American and have a picture of the Canadian flag with a nuclear explosion on it, then it is political.
 
You guys may laugh now
but if you want to define what is politics and what isn't
you have to be upfront about it
Your exceptions and rules will only allow post like
Happy-Election-Day-V1-700x875.png

so it's it ok to celebrate "Happy Victory Day" that's coming up soon. For all you guys don't know, that's when Nazi Germany got defeated in WW2.
View attachment 918
or Revolution Days?
or Bastille Day?
what about Columbus Day?
ur litearlly saying fuck you to the indigenous americans
Thanksgiving is harmless right? but did you know, Indigenous groups see it as a painful reminder of historical injustices...
I do agree with @God honestly.
It's move everything, Move Nothing or don't have at all.
You can't make exceptions.


Funny enough, 8th May 1945 is regarded in the West as VE Day, Victory In Europe.

Duck tastes better!
PEKING DUCK

I always thought Santa was latin for Saint.
it is
Santa is short for Sanctus which is holy or saint
and in spanish, its used for female saints

All pagan and absorbed by christianity, but that's another topic
connected to pagan folklore highly doubt anyone still follows that
xD
Modern occultists disagree xD. To make shit more complicated you can be atheist or agnostic and still be occultist, but yeah... Definitely there's a bit of modern pagans in Europe and US. It's just a miniscule minority of minority but they exist.

I got a headache. Samhain allowed but Independence Day isn't? Ohmigosh. Whatever you guys like, if that's admins' and mods' preference then be it, maybe it's not the most important issue in the world. But it gets weirder and weirder.
 
Duck tastes better!
I like duck that can be ruined by a shit cook also mind. Just like turkey.

Don't go ducking your self out of the turkey hole you got your self in now.

Typical political talk bring one thing up and use something else to defend your mistake.
