Proof of the indomitable human spirit.
Rules:
- Posts must inspire hope or highlight the beauty of existence
- Posts and comments harassing or antagonizing a real person will be removed
- Posts mentioning religious topics are allowed but religion should not be the main point of the post. E.g. “God’s beautiful world” is fine because of the “beautiful world” part, but “God loves you” isn’t because religion is the focal point
- Posts and comments judging group of people in negative way based on stereotype will be removed.
- No posts with toxic positivity. All human emotions are valid.
- Staight up doomer/doomer-trolling comments will be removed. Reasonable disscustion and asking for hope is fine.

I woudn't ban people unless they are repeatedly spreading doom. Most of those comments are coming from all feed. Comment removal and a warning would be sufficient.
Hope is a choice, if a comment doesn't indicate that they want a reason to hope or they refuse to hope I would remove that comment. If they want to hope but their doom is so overwhelming that they can't even think about it I would leave it so someone could provide a reason to be even a little bit more hopeful for the future.
My propositions for different levels of moderation:
