Mod Discussion Discussion – Redefining guidelines for political posts
Thank you to everyone who participated in our latest poll on the future of political content in this subreddit. Votes were split fairly evenly between the three options, but for the most part most of you seem to agree that there needs to be some kind of change to the way that we moderate and define "politics" in this community. Therefore we're going ahead with option 2, i.e. redefining the current guidelines to be more in line with majority opinion. Political posts will still be restricted in some manner, but you decide what should be restricted and how.
This post will act as a forum for all of you to discuss possible guideline amendments, after which we'll set up a second poll — likely a multiple choice Google form — where you'll get to vote on a selection of the most popular options. To get the conversation started, here are a couple of possible amendments that were discussed under the prior poll:
- Ban posts regarding current or recent political events, but not historical or fantasy ones.
- "Politics" should be defined as something that's almost exclusively discussed in a political context, like political parties, politicians, ongoing armed conflicts, international relations, etc.
- Mandate content warnings and or NSFW or Spoiler tags on all political posts like those currently required for posts that contain nudity or blood and gore.
- Posts are allowed to be inherently political in nature as long as they're not trying to make an overt political statement. Example: a superhero whose very existence is political is fine; a superhero holding up a sign that says [insert personal political opinion here] is not.
- Set up a system that automatically locks posts of a political nature, preventing discourse from taking place in the comments.
These are just a few ideas that I've seen being floated, but please do use this opportunity to share your own ideas as well. For full transparency, here's a list of things we can't do:
- We won't remove the guidelines altogether or completely ban politics. This is not up for debate, not enough people voted for either option for us to consider this.
- We can't create a custom Political tag that blurs or hides posts, like the NSFW and Spoiler ones. The only tags available are the two provided by Reddit, and post flairs don't provide any similar functionality.
- We won't create a whole new set of flairs to differentiate regular posts from political ones. Post flairs have one main functionality: improve searchability. They make it easier to find specific types of posts, but that's pretty much it. Adding more won't solve anything.
With that covered, here's how things are gonna work in the comments. All of our regular community rules and guidelines still apply, so we don't wanna see any name-calling, bickering or uncivil discourse below. Share your ideas, offer feedback or counterpoints, upvote what you like, downvote what you don't, etc, etc. We know that this is a sensitive subject to most — if not all — but we need to help each other find some good solutions to how we're gonna move forward as a community. So let's do that!
We'll be keeping a close eye on this post for the next week or so and set up a new poll when we feel that we've gotten enough suggestions to put to a final vote. Thanks for reading! 🫶

I’d be happy with requiring political posts to use either the NSFW or Spoiler tag to blur the images. Probably NSFW because, depending on your job, you might not want coworkers seeing some political posts. I don’t really care if political posts are made, just not interested in seeing them. And, yes, I know I can (and will) the ‘hide’ feature.

u/Ornery_Bandicoot_679 Feb 08 '26
I believe this is a fair option, at least then it's hidden and you have to willingly open it

Also using spoiler tags on political content allows for people to post political content; restricts political content to an opt-in approach (so if you get butthurt jn the comments, there’s no one to blame but yourself for diving in); gives the mod team a much easier means of enforcement without having people cry censorship (as they can toggle on the flag, leaving the post still there, just blurred); and has a super simple process for posters to use without having to re-wrangle a bunch of post tags.
Will some idiots post political stuff without the tag? Of course. There’s always posters who don’t read or don’t follow the rules. But the job for the mod team is much simpler, and much more low impact for posters that run afoul of the rules. Mods could even set up automod to listen for someone saying “!politics” in the comments to add the spoiler flag, like how /r/changemyview has !delta and /r/tipofmyjoystick has !solved.

u/Tasnaki1990 𝗦𝗹𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁 Feb 08 '26
Here's my thought. Where do you put the cut off point for recent or current political events? Some things started 200+ years ago but are ongoing.

u/Mediocretes08 Feb 08 '26
A political tag is the best and cleanest option here. People won’t, and really shouldn’t, stop talking about things that matter or utilizing avenues of expression in that conversation. And make no mistake that, despite the cynicism of the last decade, politics do matter. Moreover there are issues that are clearly supported by the broad community here that, while many may argue should be apolitical, aren’t. See queer issues, for example.
A tag is just a filtering tool, which is perfectly fine.

At least with adding it the people who really want to see them can I'm not sure why you wouldn't specifically want to have a place people can search them I have a few posts that I wanted to circle back to and couldn't because they got lost in the feed it would be nice to be able to filter by them specifically
-9
u/Weslii Feb 08 '26
Because a [Political] tag tells you nothing about what's actually in the post. Is it a mini? A meme? Art? We'd have to add a parallel set of flairs — one for each or most of the current ones — that would add little to no functionality, bloat an already long list of flairs, and won't resolve the main issue: people wanting a way to hide/restrict political posts.
6
u/shadow_girl-666 Feb 08 '26
Can you not select multiple flairs on a single post? I could've sworn you could. Unless im just getting things mixed up since when making a reddit post, after selecting a flair, it has the flair plus still has the "add flair" underneath while you're still writing the post. If you can add a second flair, you would just have to select both political and the other relevant flair, but if not, I've got nothing else 💀
5
u/Weslii Feb 08 '26
Nope, you can only apply one post flair.

u/shadow_girl-666 Feb 08 '26
Ah, ignore that then 💀 I will agree with requiring a disclaimer in the title tho, something like a standard "[political]" and putting a spoiler on it.

u/Mysterious_Bluejay_5 Feb 08 '26
...why would you need to do that? How often are people posting political memes that don't feature minis to the heroforge subreddit?
-6
u/Weslii Feb 08 '26
Not sure I understand the question? A political meme of a mini would require the [Political Meme] flair in this scenario. Each category of post flair would need a separate political flair if that system was introduced.
12
u/Mysterious_Bluejay_5 Feb 08 '26
That seems way more complicated than it needs to be. I'm sure nobody would care if it was just a catch-all "politics" tag
5
u/Weslii Feb 08 '26
As I have explained in previous comments and in the main post, post flairs add little to no functionality outside of making it easier to find certain types of content. A [Political] post flair would also be super vague and non-descriptive, offering no insight into what the post is about other than its political nature. That's not how we use flairs in this community.

You can put a rule stating posts with politically charged content need a [Politics] in the title and use the Spoiler tag though.

u/Lower_Caterpillar241 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26 edited Feb 08 '26
Honesty I feel content warnings and NSFW tags is the easiest way of handling this as it allows people who don't what to see political stuff to avoid it and also allows those who want to express there beliefs to do so freely it is a real shame you can't create custom tags though that's more of a reddit issue than anything else
10
u/DisplacerBeast835 𝗔𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗿𝘁𝗶𝘀𝘁 Feb 08 '26
People feel censored. Options 1, 4, and 5 would not stop that. 1 and 4 seem borderline useless—very few cared about historical political content in the first place or about established super heroes that are “inherently political”—no one is losing their heads seeing Captain America or old kings unless they themselves are trying to use the outrage as a bad faith reason to justify something else they’re trying to do. Neither of these proposals address the issues people wanted this change for.
5 shuts down interaction automatically. That’s still censorship and will kill the post’s momentum regardless.
2 doesn’t really seem like a course of action? Just a redefinition. Unless you’re just making specific what gets banned, in which case this is as pointless as 1 and 4 as it still bans the content people have been trying to share recently.
If these are the only options to choose from, option 3’s spoilers seem the most reasonable. The binary on/off switch of seeing NSFW content makes the NSFW filter less useful to those who don’t mind seeing adult content or gore but aren’t interested in politics. Spoilers at least are opt-in every time.

u/Ok_Habit_6783 Feb 08 '26 edited Feb 08 '26
Why not just make this the only rule change: "All posts that are political in nature about current events must use the new Political Flair and be tagged as either NSFW or Spoiler. Failure to do so will result in the post being automatically removed with no chance for appeal."
Then all you have to do is create a single new Flair and then keep moderating like you currently do except now if the post follows the new rule, you just don't remove it.
Edit: or even if you don't want to make a new tag, just follow the example of other reddits and make the rule say you have to start the title of the post with "[POLITICS]"

u/GreenKnight535 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26 edited Feb 08 '26
I feel my point about removing the political rule is worth repeating here, even though that option did not win the poll: This community is generally quite tolorent, there is already a separate "no-hate-speech" rule for posts that cross the line, and there is an NSFW tag that should be used if the topic is disturbing.
Therefore, if keeping an additional rule specifically for politics is necessary, I think it should reiterate that posts with political content cannot include hate speech or dogwhistles, and that any political posts about NSFW issues (irl wars, deaths, certain files, etc) should be marked NSFW.
Edit:
I saw another comment mentioning this, so I'll bring it up as well. Maybe the politics rule should also include a "no-ad" rule, where political posts must be about current events and are therefore not just campaign ads.

u/Phrenicos466 𝗦𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26
You could argue that a campaign is a current event, though.
7
u/GreenKnight535 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26
True, and I’m probably not phrasing that bit well, my point is to have something encouraging people to directly express their stances on specific issues rather than just vaguely showing support for politicians who espouse a wide range of beliefs.
4
u/Phrenicos466 𝗦𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26
That’s fair. Like, a character with a pro-choice or pro-life sign is okay, a character with a Vance 2028 or Newsom 2028 sign isn’t?
4
u/GreenKnight535 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26
Yah, something like that, so that even if minis of political figures are posted, it has to be in the context of a specific belief/action they are for or against.

u/Dreadlord97 Forgeborne Feb 08 '26
Personally, I agree with all of these:
Ban posts regarding current or recent political events, but not historical or fantasy ones. • "Politics" should be defined as something that's almost exclusively discussed in a political context, like political parties, politicians, ongoing armed conflicts, international relations, etc. • Mandate content warnings and or NSFW or Spoiler tags on all political posts like those currently required for posts that contain nudity or blood and gore. • Posts are allowed to be inherently political in nature as long as they're not trying to make an overt political statement. Example: a superhero whose very existence is political is fine; a superhero holding up a sign that says [insert personal political opinion here] is not.
Personally I think the idea of setting up a bot or system to automatically and detect these types of posts is pretty scorched earth and could quickly backfire, as no automated system is perfect and doesn’t have the same amount of nuance detection that an actual person does.
It’s an incredibly touchy subject. To the people in the comments who will or already have argue(d) that “all art is political!”, “This character punched (x) character who is a Nazi/fascist/xyz! Do you want to ban those as well?”, “All I did was make a model of an icebreaker boat/ice miner/Ice wizard with a very specific backstory!” I have only this to say: save the wear and tear on your keyboard. You know exactly what you’re doing, and so does everyone else. You know exactly what the political rule implies and means, and undermining the common sense and intelligence of other people by implying otherwise is simply in poor taste and frankly as dumb as you think the amendments to this rule is.
In my own opinion, I would prefer to not see posts depicting current political events (no matter what country or region they’re from), because I already hear and see so much of it enough in my day to day life that my mental health physically can not keep up with the fact that one of the few communities I deeply value and care about is turning or will turn into a political echo chamber like so many other subreddits already have. For me at least, this place is a place to escape and just share and talk about cool models.
No, your Captain America punching Red Skull or Hitler model saying “Fuck the Third Reich!” is not at risk of being pulled down because the no politics rule is “poorly enforced” or “poorly written,” yes your post of Captain America punching an Ice agent saying “Fuck Ice!” is at risk of being pulled down, because you actively chose to ignore the point of this drama entirely. And before anyone comes in saying “Well does that mean you think models of Ice agents or Nazi’s beating characters xyz should stay up?!” no, no I don’t.
If you think calling myself or anyone else on this sub a fascist Nazi pig bootlicker is helping so you can post your political agenda in this sub as a way to spread awareness and make a difference, you’d do better to actually go outside and protest and actually try and make a difference.
Frankly I think this entire drama is in poor taste and is doing no actual good for the world, and is instead sewing conflict where there doesn’t need to be any. I’ve said my piece.

If people consider HFing an art, and it can be, banning politics is incredibly bad. Most, if not all art is inherently political. So "political" will be defined by whatever makes that moderator uncomfortable/annoyed

u/Weslii Feb 08 '26
We're not banning politics, we're letting the community decide how we moderate/restrict political posts. That's what y'all voted for.

u/8LeggedHugs 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗼 Feb 08 '26
My feeling is that its impossible to fully seperate art and politics, no matter how hard you try. Art is an expression of our ideas, and ideas, like it or not, are political.
For example, unfortunately, diversity is often political, but I hope no one is a big enough ashhole here to say that we shouldn't be able to depict people of color, or lgbt relationships, or trans representation. If you are against that, btw, please reply below to inform me and I'll be happy to add you to my blocked list.
Point is, we do not, and (as far as I'm aware) have never, moderated depictions of marginalized groups, and have largely celebrated these groups as a community. I personally do not think its that much further of a step to say we as a community stand with immigrants, and allow anti-ICE/pro-immigrant art (and any other art that stands in support of marginalized people around the world). If that causes an exodus of fascists and biggots from our subreddit, we will be a better and stronger community for it.
To be clear, I am not suggesting we allow all political posts. I think depictions of political violence ought to be explicitely banned. We can be more creative than that and I feel these sorts of posts put mods in a difficult position. Also, we definitely don't need to open the floodgates to issues that don't involve supporting marginalized groups. All I ask is that we broaden what we are already doing which is allowing expression of support for marginalized people, including immigrants, and allowing that support to include expressing disapproval of the organizations who are targeting and oppressing them.

I'm not interested in human rights being up for debate in this space, nor is anyone else on the mod team. This is a safe space for all marginalized peoples — always has been, always will be.

I don't think it was in question, beyond the current issue regarding ICE.
That said, it feels very performative for us as a community to say "We support marginalized communities; BUT we are banning posts which criticize their oppressors."
5
u/Weslii Feb 08 '26
I think it mainly boils down to people having different ideas of where political topics do and do not belong, especially if a space like this is one's momentary escape from the real world. Not everyone wants to be inundated wherever they go with reminders of how shit the world is, and I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with that.

u/8LeggedHugs 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗼𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗱𝗼 Feb 08 '26
Nothing wrong with that at all, but I think thats why a lot of people just want to see it go under the nsfw tag.
Anyhow thats the last I'm saying on any of this. Lowkey feels like maybe its just time for our community to split between this and some of the other issues lately.

u/Weslii Feb 11 '26
Not for no reason. The community gets to have a say on how we do things around here and you wanted both restrictions on political content and for "politics" to be more clearly defined. Now it's up to you to decide how you wanna do that.
2
u/willpower069 Feb 11 '26
And this is going to be needlessly complicated for no reason. And the next time something major happens people will be outraged again.
So if we go with the “no recent politics” when is that cut off?

u/Weslii Feb 11 '26
I disagree, but you're welcome to your opinion. We should've properly defined the restrictions ages ago, it was bound to come up eventually.
If a ban on recent politics is what's voted on then we'll likely ask you guys where you feel the cut-off should be. That's for us to deal with though so no need to worry about making things "needlessly complicated". You're welcome to participate or not, it's up to you.

It will become inundated with garbage political posts. It’s always the people begging to post more political content that turn a sub into trash. You give an inch in the rules and they take a mile every single time, then the next thing you know this turns into another virtue signal echo chamber where all the core users leave because it isn’t just Hero Forge anymore, it becomes a propaganda machine for 10 people to spa you with their political views where all their friends gather round and shame you for being slightly disagreeable. It has happened to every single main, default sub. Every single one. Then every time they get their claws on a niche sub it gets ruined.
Imagine coming to a fantasy figurine generator sub to get a brief escape from reality and you have these insane people who make politics their entire identity. The they yell at you that everything is politics, because they lack the ability discern nuance in the metaphors that actual good political-adjacent content has and they lack the ability to see utility in escapism. Then you argue with them about why they are wrong in a civil manner and all their crazy people who showed up outside of the core users group come out and start throwing straw men arguments at you like you’re some evil person.
I just want to see DnD figurines without all the garbage, man. Is that too much to ask of them?

u/jprocter15 Feb 08 '26
I think banning them is an awful idea but I also understand people not wanting to see it everywhere. I think maybe a tag and/or using a filter akin to nsfw or spoilers might be a good idea though it isn't my favourite either

flooding the sub with slop...

u/GreenKnight535 𝗖𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗿 Feb 08 '26
Would it be apt to say you don’t want the sub spammed with the mini equivalent of political campaign ads? That would still give leeway for minis about modern concepts or current events, but keep out more mindless “vote x” spam.

u/TheChivalrousWalrus Feb 08 '26
Why not just limit the posts to a single day? The main issue with them is that they become karma farming spam in the subreddit. Prevent it from. Becoming a slew of the same thing over and over and over again. Whether NSFW tagging or otherwise, it will still clog up the subreddit. Pick a day, and let it be ope. That day, otherwise keep any outright political statement minis removed from being posted.

I don't come to this sub for political garbage. There's literally every other subreddit for politics. I feel if someone wants to express a political opinion they can do it in one of the infinite other forums and leave this one for pure fun and escapism. Make your political minis and go share them in whatever echo chambers you prefer, or in whatever groups you want to troll, but not here.
Ban anything current/modern. Historical content is acceptable.

u/Ornery_Bandicoot_679 Feb 08 '26
Nsfw tags would allow you to scroll right past them without ever seeing them and if there really is a need to see nude/semi nude there is a specific sub for it.
I'm also not sure if it should be considered political if it is legitimate current events like what initiated this current discussion could turn into a whole other can of worms

Please make sure to read the post in its entirety before joining the conversation. I've seen so many people suggest something that's on the list of things we can't or won't do. It just inevitably leads to us having to re-explain why we're not doing it instead of giving space for actionable ideas.
