-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

MODERATORS
Claiming that it's "the Jews" is such ancient antisemiticism that it has its own name: the blood libel. It started as "they need blood for sacrifices (during passover especially) and sweet christian children have the best blood." But it's spread for so long and mutated over the years that claims of outright Jewish vampirism are quite common in bigot circles.
I wouldn't be surprised that it's spread into the wider conspiracy theory world. A lot of antisemitic tropes eventually get broadly applied when the bigotry is disconnected.
Oh, right! I was only vaguely familiar with the blood libel thing, it explains a lot.
