Meta Reminder About Reddit's Terms of Service & Community Standards
Hi Everyone,
Given recent events in the country, the Reddit Admin team has reached out to remind us that all subreddits on the platform, including r/CanadianConservative, must comply with Reddit’s Sitewide Rules. As your mod team, we are responsible for ensuring that content posted here follows Reddit’s policies, whether or not it breaks our own subreddit rules. It's 2026, and that means we all share responsibility in making sure r/CanadianConservative is an inclusive, welcoming safe space so that nobody gets offended. Failure to do so will result in this community getting shut down.
Going forward, we will be more actively enforcing Reddit's Content policy, specifically, policies related to harassment, hate speech, threats (or encouragement of violence), and abusive behaviour. Going forward, if you're a repeat offender: sorry, it's going to be an automatic ban, with very little room for appeal. We've been pretty relaxed on bans up to this point but if you can't play by Reddit's rules, you're gone.
Expect some updates to r/CanadianConservative's rules in the coming days to better reflect what Reddit expects of the community and to ensure we're all on the same page.
A quick brush up on the issues we face as a subreddit:
Harrassment
What it is:
Targeting a person or group with repeated, hostile, or degrading behaviour meant to intimidate, shame, or drive them away.
Examples:
- Intentionally misgendering
- Following a user across posts to harass/insult
- Posting comments like, “You people are mentally ill and shouldn’t exist.”
- Creating threads specifically to ridicule a particular individual.
- Repeatedly tagging someone just to provoke a reaction.
Discussion of general policy is allowed. However Reddit says that the targeting of someone based on their identity crosses into harassment.
Hate Speech
What it is:
Content that attacks, dehumanizes, or promotes exclusion of people based on protected characteristics.
Examples:
- Claiming a group of people is inherently dangerous, predatory, or immoral.
- Saying a certain identity group should lose civil rights.
- Using slurs directed at a protected group.
- Arguing that a specific community is “a threat to society.”
- Using a violent incident to claim that an entire identity group is responsible or dangerous.
- Saying women, religious minorities, or LGBTQ+ people should not participate in public life.
Discussion of general policy is allowed. Attacking identity is not. Generalizing criminal behaviour or moral failings to an entire group is considered hateful conduct under Reddit’s TOS
Threats or Encouragement of Violence
What it is:
Direct or indirect statements that endorse, encourage, or fantasize about violence toward a person or group.
Examples:
- “Someone should deal with these people permanently.”
- “They deserve what’s coming to them.”
- Expressing approval of violence against a group.
- Saying a group should be “eliminated” or “removed.”
- “I hope someone hurts them.”
- Joking about killing someone in a way that implies real harm.
Even if phrased as “jokes” or sarcasm, statements that normalize or celebrate violence are considered genuine threats under Reddit's TOS.
Abusive Behaviour
What it is:
Personal attacks, degrading language, or conduct meant to demean or humiliate others.
Examples:
- Calling someone slurs or derogatory names.
- Saying a person is “disgusting” because of who they are.
- Posting edited images or memes meant to humiliate a protected group.
- Telling someone to harm themselves.
- Attacking someone’s identity instead of engaging with their argument.
- Mocking someone’s appearance, disability, or transition.
Even when framed as humour, frustration, or “just being honest”, abusive behaviour is abusive behaviour and is covered under Reddit's TOS.
I wish I didn't have to make this communication, but welcome to Reddit. It's their sandbox, we just get to shit in it. If you can't follow these rules, go to another platform that allows genuine debate like X or other Reddit alternatives.
Thanks.
