MODERATORS
As stated in our sidebar:
Although our initial goal was to provide a new platform for r/PoliticalCompassMemes, we welcome the expansion to various new topics and themes.
which is why we are finally opening this thread.
If you have any suggestions for a community that you would like to run on our instance this is the place to post them. While our Rule 0 (no illegal content) remains our golden policy, there are a couple more guidelines for you to follow.
Community creation guidelines
- Take out your own trash: if you propose the creation of a community you must either moderate it yourself or appoint a willing moderator when you submit your request.
- Don't burn our bridges: while we value free speech, we also want to maintain a friendly and constructive atmosphere. Please refrain from posting any content that is deliberately hateful, as this could jeopardize our federation with other instances.

I'd be pleased to see a ReturnToMonke community, hosted unironically on cutting edge social media technology. It could be a home for promotion, discussion, critique, and memeing of anarchoprimitivism and neoludditism. I'd be willing to moderate it, asking participants to post no illegal content, to keep the discussion civil and, of course, to refrain from inciting violence.
Edit: incorrected spelling.
I have something to post on this as soon as something like this is up
Your time is now: returntomonke
Aww you called us "cutting edge". I really like this idea. Discussing it with the other admins right now, will let you know.
I just noticed the creation of [email protected]. If you don't want to host then that one could maybe help fill the gap. But I still think a deliberate spinoff of pcm would be worthwhile. PCM has a uniquely valuable culture of not taking ourselves seriously and of enaging with dissent. Besides, what's a monke without a meme to illustrate the point?
Nah actually 2/4 of us are very excited about this. I'm just waiting for at least one of the other two to give his vote because I want to make this the right way. But personally I'd love to have such a community.
edit: to make it clear, the other two haven't logged in the Discord yet
i have no authority here but i approve of making this guy the Monke King
