[For full rules, click here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Egypt/wiki/rules)

#1. No Personal Attacks or Harassment

Above all, be civil. While debate is encouraged, posts containing personal attacks, overly confrontational, or inflammatory speech will be removed.

Labelling users as "Ikhwan", "Dawlgy", etc is not tolerated. 

No harassing users based on their post history.

#2. No Racism, Xenophobia or Homophobia (Hate Speech)

Posts that are bigoted to a certain group of people based on their sex, gender, sexual orientation, national origin, religious or ethnic group are not tolerated under no circumstances and will result in a permanent ban, no exceptions.

#3. Posts must be about Egypt

All content must be related to Egypt. Posts that vaguely relate to Egypt aren’t allowed. This includes random Egyptian memes, posts discussing the Middle East, and posts discussing Egypt elsewhere (e.g. a random redditor’s opinion is not content for this subreddit). If you find a topic that may promote discussion, you’re free to start a new thread discussing said topic.

#4. No social media reposts

Social media (Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, YouTube shorts, Reddit, Instagram, etc.) posts are not allowed. This includes links, screenshots, meta discussions and trends on these platforms.

#5. Content Guidelines

1. Titles of posts have to be descriptive and as objective as possible. Posts with titles that do not describe their topic but present an opinion or a reaction will be removed.
2. Data and graph (infographics) posts have to be properly sourced with a non-social media direct link.
3. Repetitive media posts, as in posts that contain the same content (link or image) posted before, are not allowed.
4. [Brigading](https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=brigading) and [witch-hunting](https://burriep.github.io/CS395-FinalProject/Definition/) are not allowed.
5. No surveys (with mod approval), WhatsApp invite links, meetups, or anything that might compromise the users' online safety. If you are unsure, please contact us via [the Mod Mail](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=/r/Egypt) before you post.

The use of the “[No True Egyptian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No_true_Scotsman)” fallacy or any other perspectives that denigrate or marginalize individuals based on their identity is strictly prohibited. This also applies to non-Muslim and LGBTQ+ communities.

Any insistence that a party or group must have a specific identity or ideology is not allowed. For example, “All Egyptians have to be conservative/progressive/moderate.”

- No, we/you are [Egyptian/Arab/Pharaoh/African/etc.]

Use:

- I am/identify as [Egyptian/Arab/Pharaoh/African/etc.]
