MODERATORS
==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.

I should actually be using the term "far left", as after research, as far as I can tell "alt left" is a term used by alt rights (i.e. neo Nazis, white supremacists and the likes) as a knee jerk reaction to whoever calls them alt right. My bad on that.
Examples of far left governments are China and the USSR, with policies that concentrate power at the government and makes it difficult for people to hold power and have a voice.
As for fascism, it was historically considered inherent to far right governments, but some argue that far left governments that fit most of the characteristics of fascism should also be described as such, hence far left fascism, but it could also be described as far left authoritarianism.
I wouldn't call those far left at all personally. authoritarianism and fascism are blanketly not leftist systems of government
in fact, left stand for equality and right stand for liberty. That's all.
This makes no sense. Those are the same thing. You do not have one without the other. The right is about neither. The right is purely “do what we say”. Nothing more and nothing less.
