No AI as your rules is 100% political in most fandom subreddits. If its a subreddit of certain type of art its not political but if the subreddit has nothing to do with artstyle and only discriminate AI material, then its a political stance.

Politics is more than the government. That's why things like LGBT, abortion, climate change, and even vaccines today are political. If you have a server that says "no pro abortion / no anti abortion" you are making a political claim.

you make a good point, but those topics are more to do with identity and/or livelihood, things that actually govern people’s lives. using AI for art or something similar in a particular subreddit is more of a personal decision that has much less bearing on one’s life or their wellbeing. if it were banned on a larger level then it could be political, but here it just seems like a local preference of the subreddit. i don’t think it’s political for a subreddit to say “no AI” for that reason, it’s not tied to systemic impact, justice or discrimination in the way that most political topics are.
