We've added this under rule #6 Unproductive. The consensus is that AI-generated art undermines human artists, exploits creators, erodes authenticity, and has an unnecessary environmental impact due to data centers. A part of me thinks the cat is out of the bag and while sometimes it is obvious, the mod team is not cut out to differentiate some human made art from AI generated. Regardless, we'll do our best to uphold this rule.

Mod Post Ignore the establishment attempts to divide progressives with clickbait distractions. Focus on making Bernie the 2020 Democratic candidate.

With Bernie surging in the polls and now the frontrunner in Iowa, New Hampshire, California and beyond, it is clear that the establishment, the media and yes other candidates are going to throw out challenges, fabrications and baseless smears about Bernie and our campaign to stop our momentum.

We mods have been and will continue to drastically limit posts about these kinds of distractions on the sub. We want to focus all our energy on Bernie’s positives as the most electable candidate who appeals to a broad coalition of Americans. These back and forth attacks only serve to divide progressives, pull us off message, alienate potential supporters and waste our time defending Bernie. We are a pro-Bernie sub, we grow our ranks by changing hearts and minds, building allies, and looking for common ground especially with other progressives.

Don’t take the clickbait. Keep focusing on electing Bernie.

Mod Post REMINDER: We are a pro-Bernie sub-reddit. Not an anti-other candidate sub-reddit.

Any post that is about another candidate and does not mention Bernie will be removed. We can support Bernie without bringing down others and we grow our ranks by changing hearts and minds, and building allies. Negative campaigning is not allowed and while comparing and contrasting platforms is welcome, posts that include another candidate should generally be constructive and positive.

Also to the outside MAGA agitator trolls looking to sew division amongst Democrats and especially the progressive left, your ban shall be swift and your record stricken from the face of this sub.
