Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.
Avoid AI generated content.
Avoid misinformation.
Avoid incomprehensible posts.
No threats or personal attacks.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

I hate how much of this community is obsessed with kids, mostly girls, in school uniform kissing and/or being otherwise presented sexual, like with massive breasts and whatnot.
I get that it's an anime thing and same sex couples are lgbt positive and this isn't my issues, my issue is the kids in school uniform in every other post practically. Aren't most of the users here like 30+?
The girls in the OP post aren't being sexual or have giant breasts though...
I'd count kissing as being sexual
So you wanna ban kissing in public since its sexual?
anything above a class four hand hold
I didn't say anything about banning anything though??
You said it's sexual. Aren't most sexual things banned in public?
Not sure why you'd think that would mean I wanted to ban those, but kissing isn't banned in public in most places. So some are banned others aren't.
Plenty of parents kiss their children to show that they love them. There are other cultures where a kiss is considered a sign of respect or a friendly greeting.
My question to you is would you still consider it sexual if it were a boy in a school uniform giving one of those girls a kiss? Because i think we know what your real objection is.
Not all kisses are sexual in nature. The picture kiss definitely is.
I'm thoroughly confused by this. Of course it would be sexual, what else would be if depicted this way? What are you even suggesting here..?
Also, what objection??
This community goes nuts over girls in school uniform kissing and being presented sexually.
Unless you are a teenager yourself, it is really weird to be so obsessed with memes of school girls kissing and/or looking sexual.
And the comments on these posts are always talking about how hot or attractive these school girls are and how much you all either want to be them or be with them.
Do you not think this is concerning behaviour for adults to be participating in?
If you are worried about the dangers of sexual deviance, I think a drawing of kissing girls on the internet should rank pretty lowly on the priority list.
Can't you think of a real-world example of sexual deviance that is even more egregious, damaging and influential? Maybe focus your outrage there.
Lmao, look at this pedo is telling me to go be concerned elsewhere because a community based around sexualised drawings of school girls is apparently just a harmless internet fad.
I'm going though, I don't want to be associated with this rot or to see it on my feed when scrolling.
I think they're hinting that the girls are or look underage
Two minors kissing each other breaks no laws that I'm aware of... ?
I don't think they said anything about it being illegal, just creepy for adults to be into.
Those are only the users who admitted their age.
Also, I think 196's demographics are different to lemmy's as a whole.
Fair enough, so this meme trope is for and used by queer teenagers here? 196 was just slightly spicier memes on reddit, from what I recall, but it's been a few years.
Idk, maybe it's just because I'm a 30+ adult that I'm assuming everyone else here is too, and that's why I'm so weirded out by this. Because this is a really weird and gross trope for actual adults to be so into.
I'm really hoping you all are teenagers here.
I'm 30+ and I like Sakura Trick and there's nothing wrong with that. (Also, this post is about the absurdity of yuri on paper money and not at all about the sexual arousal you personally feel when you see two girls kissing, so maybe don't self-report next time.)
Yeah I blocked all the hentei communities but there’s no “Lady Sybil” Downton Abbey fan art communities to replace them.
