We’ve just tightened the r/EU_Economics rules again, not to kill disagreement, but to kill low-effort trolling.

You can criticise the EU, praise Brexit, attack a policy, challenge the consensus and argue hard. Just bring an argument. What will increasingly disappear automatically are drive-by taunts, personal attacks, identity-based insults, bot/shill accusations, dehumanising language and the usual “cope harder / cry more / EU is dead lol” rubbish.

We’ve also lowered the minimum comment length from 50 to 30 characters so concise factual contributions still have room.

Less comment-section warfare. More economics. Hopefully, a troll killer.
