What is a WAFFLES declaration?

A WAFFLES declaration is a preemptive list of things a post explicitly does NOT claim, designed to help readers avoid making uncharitable assumptions or 'straw man' arguments.

Where did the term WAFFLES come from?

It originated from a 2025 Bluesky controversy where a meme satirized users reading hostile implications into innocuous posts (e.g., 'I like waffles' being read as 'Oh, so you hate pancakes?').
