The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I mean, they can be abused, but they're absolutely necessary to have.
And, if someone is trying to bypass a ban, they're kinda not someone you can trust to behave in a reliably acceptable way at all.
Like, I get it, nobody likes being banned. But trying to pretend that you didn't know that not only would you catch a ban for outright saying to punch a nazi just means you weren't paying attention to reddit and how it's been for years at this point. Yeah, punching nazis is fun and possibly useful, but trying to pretend you didn't know that it will get you banned on reddit is like saying you didn't know laying down in a urinal trough would get you covered in piss. That shit is not new. It was happening before the little asshole ceo started making things worse. There's articles about it, people complain about it all the time.
And if you're 9 accounts into trying to get around a ban, why the hell would anyone trust you to read and follow basic rules in the future? It doesn't matter whether or not the initial ban was justified. Stupidly. Think about it. It's like some stupid teenager being grounded and sneaking out the window. The very act of it proves you can't be trusted.
Why the fuck would you even want to go back? Pick up the stealth app, read what you need to read, and let reddit go to hell.
I mean, vent away, but this is on you.
Reading isnt the point. I want to post and the fact of the matter is, every single thing I do is justified morally and by the initial ban being horseshit. Noone blames a teen gor sneaking out if their home is abusive
