RULES

This subreddit is Safe Space. Hate speech or slurs of any kind will not be tolerated. Direct quotes from source material are permitted without censorship but must be cited as such (using quotation marks to indicate a direct quote). Discussion of material which is potentially triggering must contain a trigger warning [TW] in the title of the post.
Treat other redditors and their opinions with respect. Downvotes should not be used to demonstrate disagreement with someone's point, but should rather be used for posts that derail the discussion, are intentionally inflammatory, or do not add anything of material value.
Do not engage with trolls. Do not start wars in the comments. If a post needs to be removed, report it to the moderators. "Mini-modding" does not contribute to the subreddit and will be removed.
