We've seen a rise in the amount of low quality submissions: poorly written, factually incorrect, over-generalizing, off-topic, personal experiences, etc.
We are of the opinion that it is in the best interest of our movement, and of men in general, if we can be as factual as possible and focus on quality arguments in our advocacy. It is always our intent to foster that on this sub.
So, we will now be sending every post through moderator approval first. Previously, posts would show up right away unless flagged by automoderator.
For more info on how we treat generalizations, see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LeftWingMaleAdvocates/comments/xcewuo/on_generalisations/
Misinformation and factually incorrectness come into play when making generalizations, a post being low effort, and also the Reddit rule on misinformation. But now we are including it as its own rule to increase clarity.
Rule 13. Be factual and not misleading
Statements on our sub should be factual. Misleading information is not welcome.
Posts will be held to higher standards than comments. Contentious and extraordinary claims need evidence provided, as do generalizations of innate characteristics. Mods may request evidence for posts and comments, with temporary removal until provided or permanent removal if not provided. Personal experiences do not require evidence, though extraordinary claims may be questioned.
Participants who are consistently posting high-quality content may be added to the approved users list, which bypasses the submission filter.
(Note that the new filter applies to post submissions, not comments, which will be treated as before.)
Thanks to /u/austin101123 for writing the initial draft of this post.
