Inform Me Community Guidelines
Inform Me is a space for respectful, evidence-informed discussion about vaccines, health policy, and informed consent. We welcome all perspectives, provided the conversation remains polite, honest, and constructive. Our goal is to inform, not inflame.
What We Welcome:
🟡 Thoughtful questions, curiosity, and counterpoints.
🟡 Personal experiences and respectful storytelling.
🟡 Evidence-based contributions—mainstream or alternative—shared in good faith.
🟡 Honest conversations about government decisions, pharmaceutical practices, and public health messaging.
🟡 Respect for nuance: you don’t need to agree with everyone here, but you do need to treat them with dignity and respect.
What We Don’t Allow:
🔴 Name-calling, mocking, or bullying anyone for their beliefs, experiences, or background.
🔴 Name-calling, insults, or sarcasm directed at other commenters (e.g. “idiot,” “sheep,” “conspiracy nut”).
🔴 Mocking people for their vaccination status, health decisions, or beliefs.
🔴 Threats, harassment, or personal attacks—against individuals or groups.
🔴 Disinformation campaigns or spammy content.
🔴 Medical advice or diagnosis—this is an educational space, not a clinic.
🔴 Posts that deny others’ lived experiences in a dismissive or hostile way
Examples of What Is Accepted:
🟢 Respectful disagreement:
“I’m not sure I agree with this point, but I’d like to understand more. Can you share the source for that claim?”
🟢 Sharing personal stories:
“When I was pregnant, I felt pressure to vaccinate without understanding the full risks. I wish I had known more about the flu shot’s limited effectiveness in pregnancy.”
🟢 Asking for clarification:
“I’ve read conflicting reports about aluminum in vaccines—what does the current research actually say?”
🟢 Raising questions about authority respectfully:
“Why was the TGA so slow to acknowledge certain side effects? I think we need more accountability in how these decisions are made.”
Examples of What Is Not Accepted:
🔴 Name-calling or sarcasm directed at others:
“Only sheep get injected with poison and brag about it.” “Oh great, another brainwashed pharma worshipper.”
🔴 Bullying language or threats:
“People like you are the reason society’s gone to hell. You should be ashamed.”
“Wait until your kid gets injured—then maybe you’ll wake up.”
🔴 Spreading unverified or dangerous health advice:
“Just give your baby garlic water instead of vaccines. Works every time.”
“No need for doctors—just detox with MMS and pine needle tea.”
🔴 Repetitive, hijacking, or troll behaviour:
Posting the same meme, phrase, or link repeatedly across threads.
Constantly derailing a comment thread with unrelated topics (e.g., flat earth, chemtrails).
💛 Our Promise

Moderating fairly and transparently.
Encouraging diverse views grounded in truth-seeking.
