==please incorporate the word rule in your post titles==
Here are the things that get you banned:
-saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account
-tankie behaviour
-nazi behaviour
-authoritarian behaviour
-genocide denial
-prejudice of any kind
-anything else that is clearly bad
Things that get your post/comment removed:
-AI generated content
-anything in the banlist
-posts that are so off topic that they don’t fit on 196 at all
-moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you’d see on your aunt’s Facebook page or Elon musk’s Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption)
-corpoposting
Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.
---------EDIT:NSFW RULES---------
NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex].
Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.
IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.

JAN 2024 UPDATE: MOLDY MONDAYS
Monday is now moldy Monday. on this day and only this day moldy memes are not only allowed, but encouraged. The crustier the better. The type of thing that’s been reposted at least 2,000 times with filters and bad crops and watermarks and hopefully minions. please caption with moldy rule
If you have any issues, please reach us at 196mods@protonmail.com. PLEASE do not dm me, as I am not consistently available and tend to step away from the mantle for weeks to months at a time.
saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account
based
Unfathomably based
!meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works approves
how tankies are still surprised that fascist apologia gets them banned in an antifascist community is beyond me
Why are they even allowed to federate here
The main dev of lemmy is one of them, that’s how.
this instance isn’t associated with the devs
Other than being hosted at the same ip as lemmy.ml
This instance is blahaj.zone, hosted by the folks at blahaj.zone?
Blahaj.zone isn’t run by the Devs of Lemmy, they could easily block both Lemmygrad and lemmy.ml if they wanted. They just choose not to for some reason.
Probably because banning people based purely on political ideology is kind of facist 😝
Reminds me exactly on the wise words of Sir Karl Popper about the ‘paradox of tolerance’:
“Unlimited tolerance must lead to the disappearance of tolerance. If we extend unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not prepared to defend a tolerant society against the onslaught of the intolerant, then the tolerant will be destroyed, and tolerance with them.—In this formulation, I do not imply, for instance, that we should always suppress the utterance of intolerant philosophies; as long as we can counter them by rational argument and keep them in check by public opinion, suppression would certainly be most unwise. But we should claim the right to suppress them if necessary even by force;”
Seems like a scarecrow argument to me.
Not very based.
That’s Popper’s and Milt.Friedman’s way of laundering fascism as a legitimate ideology, a useful tool for capitalist domination and anti-communism.
Can you expand on what you were saying here? Are you saying the paradox of tolerance is itself promoting fascist ideology? Can you please explain?
Guess not
Being against humans can’t possibly be a human ideology, so fascists don’'t count under this protectionist umbrella, I hope.
I mean, it says in the post, they’re allowd to federate but are “on probation”
why does this comment dance between ultra-naive to ultra-troll in my mind?
Literally
TFW the other leftists wont let you try to subvert the movement into “the people’s fascism”
they are ruining leftist unity
Nah nah you gotta REDEFINE fascism to be anything that even remotely criticises Russia 😎
I’ve got a slight suggested edit
Basically the first item to get banned adding Hexbear to the list with Lemmygrad
I’ve been seeing a huge influx of tankie takes from hexbear accounts all over (and here) since they federated
My team is on it, and I will personally pitch in in dealing with it once auditions are over for the thing I’m working on
Thank you and I’m happy to hear it
Based rules :3
Welcome to the mod team!
wow it’s that easy?
Based rules :3
Lol no I know kiwi personally. In order to appoint someone to be a mod, they need to have commented somewhere in the community.
hehe I know that, I am just being silly <33
Have a nice day! UwU positivityyyyy
Nuh huh. You made it a rule and now must abide by it
Based rule! 😉
You seem familiar, were you active on reddit in the past? Could just be a common name. Recently switched over to Lemmy
I was, but under a different name
It’s possible to do it using API requests, just a bit more difficult, Browser Dev Tools can do it though (at least I’ve heard).
Can you please ban me for 5 days so that I know what it looks like on this platform?
I’ll ban you for one day because you didn’t do anything against the rules
It was fine. Thanks.
No problem
can you ban me for 10 minutes?
Permaban this fool 😈
What is corpoposting? I am dumb baby
I’m not sure but my guess is it’s posts that support corporations, like advertising or memes that could be ads if that makes sense
posting memes/general posts that are pro-corp. I.E. mcdonalds sprite hits different, or wendys twitter, or whatever
Unfathomably based
-posts that are so off topic that they don’t fit on 196 at all

Based, thanks moss
I’m curious to know more context abt the statement revolving around hexbear & lemmygrad? I’m very new to the fediverse so i don’t know much about these instances
Tankie pro-mao/stalin cesspools that ferment people in a powerful echo chamber. Basically hyper-reactionist toxic “leftists” looking for any excuse to stir up trouble

Finally an internet community of people that don’t think it’s funny if people die in horrible ways.
Hi! I don’t want to break any rules so I’d like to ask first, what are the rules on self promotion? I was thinking of making a post about a 20-30 minute queer fishing game I made for this year’s pride (this one to be specific) and thought it could be nice to share here but don’t want to break a rule to do so.
It’s allowed for now. If self promo becomes A problem, I’ll hold another poll.
Thank you, sounds good! I’ll only do one post so I can make sure it’s not spammy.
This looks cute. I like your artstyle.
What’s the situation with the lemmy community now that the subreddit is back open?
Staying on Lemmy
We’re continuing on as normal
Ah yes, some good news today as well
Happy to see this community is starting off on the right foot
