==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
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?
why does this comment dance between ultra-naive to ultra-troll in my mind?
Stupid question but; where can I find the banlist? I haven’t seen a link to it in the sidebar, nor this list
I have a fuckton of stupid memes I collected over be years and I kinda wanna post those, but I have no idea which memes are banned rn lmao
Edit: wait I found an explanation; https://lemmy.world/comment/185002
So basically the banlist rule is “don’t repeat anything people said in the modlog”, or something to that degree?
they did it they kicked the tankies out of 196
What is a tankie
An authoritarian communist that is supportive of Russia, China or other repressive eegimes.

Aren’t all statements prejudice? How can one even exist without judgement?
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.
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.

Based rules :3
Welcome to the mod team!
wow it’s that easy?
Based rules :3
I’ve been seeing more posts featuring companies, like this one.
I think there should be some rule about advertisement. We probably shouldn’t ban all mentions of companies, but some limits should be in place.
I have made a poll to see whether or not I should start removing posts like these
Do I have to post an image? Is the OP’s image an example of what to do or what not to do?
Hey @moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone - thanks for these!
Make sense to add a link to this post to the sidebar?
Proposed Text:
Be sure to follow the rule before you head out.
Rule: You must post before you leave.
For 196’s community rules, see this stickied post
Can someone explain the no AI rule? I keep tripping over that one. @moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone
No AI generated content, so no Midjourney, ChatGPT, etc.
There are several reasons for this:
- It’s low effort content that can drown out things people have put actual effort in (but that’s not really a problem here since 99% is low effort shitposts anyway)
- Its training material is gathered without permission of the authors.
- It’s wasteful in terms of energy and thus emissions
Thanks. I couldn’t wrap my head around it.
I don’t really agree, with the viewpoint, but I’ll continue to try and be mindful of the stuff I post.
fuck ai that’s why
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.
