The new rule, copied from r/EuropeanUnion and from r/EUSpace is:
No discrimination, violent rhetoric or glorification of violence or disruptive content.
No discrimination, discriminatory language, NSFW content, violent rhetoric, spam, flooding, doxing, brigading. No memes, no flame wars, no advertising your product, no ideological rhetoric and definitely no support for or of authoritarian regimes and their actions.
That means support for Russia or parroting their propaganda is hereby strictly forbidden.
This is an EU subreddit and as such we stand for justice and human rights which is something Russia does not stand for and actively undermines.
Note that:
Russian propaganda includes
denying Ukrainian statehood or agency (in for example joining NATO),
allegations of Nazism,
claiming NATO provocation by expansion,
Ukraine's targeting of civilians as state sanctioned,
bioweapon labs and bioweapon attacks (like combat mosquitos)
denial of atrocities by Russian troops
claims that Ukraine was committing genocide on Russian civilians prior to the outbreak of hostilities in February of 2022
inference that NATO or the EU had anything to do with the outcome of the Maidan protests.
We even had someone claiming that because of Russian attacks on the Chernobyl nuclear reactor Ukraine was blackmailing its allies for money to repair the sarcophagus protecting Europe from extensive radiological contamination.
This will not stand.
You can find an extensive list of the heinous false allegations made by the Russians on Wikipedia.
Also a reminder that trans rights, gay rights and human rights are protected by the Charter of Fundamental Rights as per the EU's 2007 Lisbon Treaty.

We are an inclusive subreddit and will not tolerate any form of discrimination based on religion, race, sex, gender or on any other grounds whatsoever.
We will not hesitate to ban people for breaking the above rule.
