About nine months ago this lifeboat came into existence following massive purges by Reddit admins against non-establishment conforming materials. Those purges never ended, which is why this particular forum has become the overall bastion for KIA2/GG materials.
On the creation of this site we were presented a set of 16 rules which we, the users, were questioned about. Overwhelming we found that the rules were overbearing and redundant.
Many of these rules are redundant, unnecessary, or bad.
The most obvious of which is that there are THREE rules covering NSFW/pornographic material. It was pointed out by myself as well as numerous other users that these were redundant and pointless, and the assumption was that these would be changed as the rules were simply temporary.
It's nine months on.
Those are only the most egregiously obvious.
The reason I make this post today is that our rules are so open-ended and confusing that even our illustrious mods have no idea WTF they mean.
I was personally banned for a day for a rule 15 violation after which u/DomitiusOfMassilia/ admitted he misunderstood what the rule meant. Immediately after I watched him make the same mistake with another. Now, a week after, I notice that the majority of action is taken under rules 2, 15, and 16. Almost all content removals are based on slurs/bad language/insults.
This post is largely upvoted while Dom's statement of removal is largely downvoted. That's just one example. This is becoming far too common. Please do not make the same mistakes that murdered KIA1.
Note that I am not calling out Dom specifically. I think the rules themselves are dogshit tier and must be fixed. I like this community, even if I do think you're a bunch of faggots. And goddamnit u/TheImpossible1 there's no women involved here so kindly fuck off.
Can we please have a serious discussion about our rules and the impacts that they have, and FIX THEM? We do not need SIXTEEN RULES, especially when it's clear not even our mods understand them all.
I was there. I don't remember you. No one mentioned the 'nefarious Jews', which I presume you think what it was all about. In fact, some of the strongest mod critics were Jews. It was about what we were allowed to post, which had nothing at all to do with the Jews.
Have you considered that you may just be wrong, and that people are not bad because of their ethnicity?
The initial fracture was discovering that the Left is the engine powering all the unethical politically motivated journalism. Lots of people were unwilling to grapple with the discovery that the Left is essentially evil. This is a large part of why KiA2 emerged, as a response to every criticism of the Left getting pruned for "unrelated politics", despite it being directly related to the behavior we'd been cataloging.
If you keep digging further you start finding a whole lot of Jewish influence, but once you find that and attempt to explore that phenomenon you get people like you coming in to squash further exploration of the issue.
Depends on how you define 'the Left'.
No, that is 100% false. KiA2 when created got an unrelated politics rule of its own. I am pretty sure the reason you are getting this wrong, is because you were not around, and are looking for a way to connect your agenda with KiA.

I've been here for...what's it been now, almost seven years since Jim made his video on the initial scandal? Your unrelated politics rule got plenty of pushback of its own, you just didn't carpet bomb all threads containing literally any politics the way KiA did. Your rule set and the reality of the userbase on the ground are not synonymous, but you've never really picked up on that distinction. KiA2 only gained any traction at all because there was a need to continue the discussion of "unrelated politics".
Doesn't sound like it. Nor do I remember your username. Not that it's literally impossible, just quite improbable.
Not at all. Option 4 was not about unrelated politics.
