About

Nextdoor is a proprietary "hyperlocal" social network with an unusually strict but also vague set of rules regarding what speech is permitted. They will often suspend users for infractions of these rules, even when said infractions would be tolerated or even encouraged on any other social network -- from the very safest of spaces to the largest and most corporate/right-wing of commercial social networks such as Facebook or Twitter.

This combination of vagueness and strictness is often abused by bullies and trolls to suppress speech they don't like.

The following codes may be used to reference comment-material which could result in suspension if actually spelled out:

  • ND/0010 cursing, especially in the presence of RHs[1]
  • ND/0020 discussing moderation outside of specific groups approved for this purpose. This includes mentions of being suspended (in actuality or hypothetically) or discussing reported content.
  • ND/0031 criticizing beliefs, or criticizing people for holding those beliefs (regardless of how articulately the criticism is defended).
  • ND/0032 citicizing an individual for holding a particular belief (this will often be described or reported as a "personal attack".)
  • ND/0033 ridiculing or insulting political positions, policies, proposals, politicians, or pundits. This may include derogatory nicknames, which may be described as "name-calling".
  • ND/0040 promoting a group disliked by RHs[1]

Usage

We have yet to determine whether ND would consider linking to these topics to be equivalent to actually discussing them, so it's probably safest to reference them more vaguely, as in CWRE ND 0001 or just ND0001 if you don't want to give the ND moderator too much of a clue regarding where to find them.
