As a mod, what are the rules in regards to leftist/socialist communities and posts? (lemmy.world)

I'm a mod of [email protected], and the last resort preemptive defederation from hexbear has me concerned. As a mod, what are the specific rules that I need to know about to make sure our community fits the guidelines of LemmyWorld? We aren't a huge community and there aren't a huge number of posts every day, but I want to see this community grow and thrive. I can't do that without knowing the guidelines hexbear violated to warrant defederation. We're focused on left unity, so I need to know what we can't allow.

From what I recall about the exploding-heads debacle, there was a lot of polls and hand-wringing before defederating. An actual last resort. I spent hours on hexbear last night, it seemed like they mostly shitpost in the comments. Nothing I saw indicated that they were going to brigade or harass people on LW.
