New rules regarding political posts - Read This

209 Upvotes

While the rules are being updated, let me give everyone a sneak peek, it will be very simple:

*No NON 80s era political posts or commentary will be allowed, and those who do so are subject to ban.

This is a non-partisan rule.

If you can’t enjoy an 80s nostalgia sub without needing to express your opinion about current politics, then this is NOT the right sub for you.

Anything political from the 80s is fine. Use your best judgment. Songs from the 80s with political themes are fine, etc. (Mods discretion)

This begins as of now.

*If you feel you were banned in error, send a modmail and we will help.

Be excellent to each other!

Badass dude IRL as well, 25 missions as a tail gunner in ww2 and lived to become one of the greatest action/crime stars in movies. Placed in a great star status since the 60's especially with Dirty Dozen, it was Death Wish in 74 that put him on the map. My favorite 80's moves from him and in my favorite order: Kinjite, Assassination, The Evil That Men Do....my top 3.
