==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
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?
I mean, it says in the post, they’re allowd to federate but are “on probation”
Probably because banning people based purely on political ideology is kind of facist 😝
Literally
Anti tankie propaganda is fascist apologia.
they did it they kicked the tankies out of 196
TFW the other leftists wont let you try to subvert the movement into “the people’s fascism”
they are ruining leftist unity
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
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 😈

Because of the Reddit migration, 196 is coming up in my Lemmy feed a lot, I have no idea what it is (because you haven’t made a description).
This could be your chance to gain more community members if you update your description
Well sort of the point of 196 is that you can post almost anything, the only rule is that you have to post each time before leaving. This rule isn’t enforced for obvious reasons, unlike the ban against tankies.
What do you mean “before leaving”?
I have no idea, I think it means whatever you want it to mean. Usually folks interpret it as visiting the sub and then going to a different one but you could also interpret it as leaving permanently, like I said it isn’t actually enforced. It’s just meant to encourage lots of irreverent posting.
Ok thank you! Cleared it up a bit
I was wondering when someone would start discriminating based on what instance you made your account on…
You can use 196 on a lemmygrad account, but because it’s by definition a tankie Lemmy site, you’re basically on probation.
Rude ;)
Lol you get it :D 👍
I mean I don’t really see myself as a tankie, I did get temporarily banned from lemmygrad for saying that ACAB means all cops, so there’s that I suppose.
That’s hilarious
Can you define “tankie behavior” so this doesn’t get abused by a power-tripping mod later?
@Shinhoshi @moss Defending the use of force against civilians expressing disagreement over their government’s decisions peacefully?
That’s anticommunist. Do they support that?
@bloubz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie basically the origins of the term is from those who supported Stalinist military incursions into Czechoslovakia and Hungary to oppose anti-Soviet-government agitation.
So basically tankie == authoritarian marxist-leninist. The red-brown alliance kind of folks.
Ah yes, some good news today as well
Happy to see this community is starting off on the right foot
How does one get flair here?
Also, because I’m bad at image-memeing, blåhaj sounds like what you do when you’ve had a few and a cop pulls you over.
There aren’t any flairs
There aren’t any flairs yet
communism good; capitalism bad; is that iffy?
None of us have any issue with communists
Removed by mod
We have issues w/ tankies, we’re fine with communists
Removed by mod
A Tankie is anyone who’s an apologist for the Chinese, soviet, North Korean, or other more minor fascist/opressive States. The are the Communists who yearn to lick the boot of Big brother, rather than truly empower the people

Where can i find the banlist?
You have a link near the bottom of the channel’s description at the right, which in English it’s likely called ‘Moderation history’ or ‘Moderation log’. It isn’t only a ban list, but general information on mod activity.
Thanks :)
Love the transparency 💜
Also, on every instance, there is a link called ‘instance’. It contains information about which lemmy instance is federated and banned by your instance.
Iffy
straight to gulag
