Community Guidelines

1. Purpose

Lightning Vote exists for civic engagement: sharing political news and views, discussing legislation, and raising and reviewing "Impeach & Oversight" civic-accountability posts. These Guidelines explain what is and isn't allowed, and are incorporated by reference into our Terms of Service.

2. Be respectful

Disagreement on political topics is expected and welcome. Harassment, threats, and hate speech directed at any person or group are not.

3. No spam

Don't post repetitive, unsolicited, or purely promotional content unrelated to civic discussion.

4. Share responsibly

Political discussion depends on good-faith participation. Don't knowingly post misinformation. We do not fact-check every post, but knowingly false claims presented as fact may be removed.

5. No graphic violence

Don't post graphic violent content.

6. Impeach & Oversight posts

Impeach & Oversight posts are for civic-accountability review of public officials' conduct and record - not for harassment of private individuals or content unrelated to accountability review.

7. Reporting

If you see a post that violates these Guidelines, use the Report control on that post. Reporting creates a record for review; it does not automatically remove the post.

8. Consequences

Violating these Guidelines or our Terms of Service may result in content removal, or account suspension or banning, at Lightning Vote's discretion.
