==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.

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.
Test comment to see if still unableissues seems to have been worked out. Ignore.saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account
based
!meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works approves
Unfathomably based
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 😎
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
I mean, it says in the post, they’re allowd to federate but are “on probation”
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?
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;”
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.
they did it they kicked the tankies out of 196
Literally 196
What is a tankie
An authoritarian communist that is supportive of Russia, China or other repressive eegimes.
Based rules :3
Question is Lemmy.world affiliated with the tankies that made lemmygrad or is it separate? I didn’t know about any of this prior so now I’m worried a bit
Ah yes, some good news today as well
Happy to see this community is starting off on the right foot
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
posts that are so off topic that they don’t fit on 196 at all
What is the topic? Is this like a de-facto meme community? I often used the subreddit to post things like media reccomendations and talk about random stuff without any images. Would that be allowed here? thanks in advance :]
if there were to be a post that was, for example, “Chicago bulls pull dylan gongsworth from the minnesota rufflers, leading to widening predicted point gap” and it was like a photo of football, or a link to an article, we’d remove it.

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.
Aren’t all statements prejudice? How can one even exist without judgement?
How tf do you upload images on mobile? I’m on iOS, I’ve tried Firefox and chrome and get errors on both when trying to upload
IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.
Finally an internet community of people that don’t think it’s funny if people die in horrible ways.
