-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

It doesn't imply anti-intellectalism from my view, the post says things like Prussian military history and specifically the treaty of Versailles type obsessions, which is quite a bit different than being interested in history like the printing press or indigenous displacement, Spanish Civil War, etc
The post itself says "there are plenty of valid reasons to be into WW2" and says it's the caution zone, not that you can't be into it. And anyway, I am pretty sure this wasn't intended as a literal litmus test for fascist tendencies or something, but a jokey observation of how sometimes the person super into Wermact tactics and technology might probably like them too much
