Heads up, We are mostly moving this community over to Lemmy.world. If you’re wondering where most of the funny went, go to !196@lemmy.world! If you’re wondering why we did this, click here.
==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 2025 UPDATE: One Hundred Ninety Six
Following our mishandling of the lemmy.world migration, a group of dissenting users founded onehundredninteysix, here on lemmy.blahaj.zone. We are not affiliated with this group. Please direct any complaints related to that community to their mod team and/or Ada.
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.
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.
I’ve updated the rules to ban AI generated content
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.

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
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
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?
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.
Why do you have mods who have advanced the claim that Jews deserved the Holocaust because “Communism is just as genocidal as Naziism” and it’s really a tit-for-tat?
Wtf no we don’t. I’m the only actual mod and I’m JEWISH like
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.
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.
Will I get banned if I leave without posting?
nah
Iffy
straight to gulag
saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account
based
Unfathomably based
Just checking, saying iffy things to a lemmygrad account or from a lemmygrad account? (Sorry, English may be my first language, but I’m not always the best at it)
!meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works approves
Confirming here for Moss that I’ve changed user accounts.
Sorry, I’m new here - “saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad account” - what does this mean? TIA
Those with accounts created on lemmygrad (an instance created specifically for tankies) are basically on probation. If they misbehave even a little they get kicked out.
What’s the situation with the lemmy community now that the subreddit is back open?
We’re continuing on as normal
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
can you ban me for 10 minutes?
Permaban this fool 😈
It was fine. Thanks.
No problem
