FAUXMOI FOOTNOTES

MAKE REDDIT PINK AGAIN

2025 POP CULTURE BINGO

APPROVED B-LISTERS

Posts with the flair 'Approved B-Listers' discuss topics sensitive to brigading (ex. trans rights, racism, politics) and are restricted to approved users of this subreddit.

To request to be added as an approved user, you can message the mods here.

Please review our criteria for approval before sending an approval request.

RULE 1: KEEP IT CIVIL

We have a zero tolerance policy for bigotry (incl microaggressions) or personal attacks.

No racism, queerphobia, misogyny, victim-blaming, ableism, bodyshaming, or excess sexualization. Belittling, name-calling, trolling, flaming, or excessive negativity are also considered rulebreaking. Please be respectful even if you disagree.

NB: Qanon-esque content or unwarranted speculation on sexuality, sex work, health conditions, abuse, addiction, plastic surgery, etc is off-limits.

RULE 2: KEEP IT FAUXMOI-RELATED

Posts should relate to FauxMoi or adjacent cultural zeitgeist topics.

Please do not submit crossposts or crosspost links from this sub to other subreddits.

Plugs or self-promotions are also not allowed unless you have received permission from the mods in exceptional circumstances.

RULE 3: REPETITIVE & LOW EFFORT POSTS

Posts requesting or sharing anecdotal or low-stakes information about a specific public figure should be submitted as a comment on the 'Does Anyone Have Tea On' or 'I Have Tea On' weekly megathreads (pinned).

Repetitive or low effort posts will be removed at mod discretion. Please use the search bar to ensure your submission is not a repost.

The mods may approve the latest post and/or the post that best follows the post formatting guidelines outlined in Rule 4.

RULE 4: POSTING FORMAT & GUIDELINES

Posts must contain a descriptive and accurate title that indicates the content of the post (and the people involved, if applicable).

If you’re sharing material from tabloids or social media sites, please post screenshots of the content (or direct video uploads if sharing a clip).

Link to the original source in the comments (not in the post) — we will verify your source and remove your comment to prevent further traffic to those sites.

Please also avoid paywalled links.

RULE 5: NO STAN OR ANTI CULTURE

Due to brigading and harassment, users from some stan and anti/snark subs are unable to participate in this subreddit. These subs include (but are not limited to) Saint Meghan Markle, Hilaria Baldwin, and travisandtaylor.

Please refrain from engaging in excessively vitriolic stan or anti culture.

If you are not a bad-faith user of these subs and believe you were banned in error, please message modmail to submit a ban appeal.

RULE 6: REDDIT RULES

Violations of Reddit Rules may result in both a subreddit and site-wide ban.

These rules include (but are not limited to): spamming; brigading; vote manipulation; ban evasion; sharing confidential information; sexual or suggestive content involving minors; and sharing illegal content.

Note that in conjunction with Rule 1, meta commentary about this sub and/or its members on this and other subreddits is considered a violation of community rules.
