      196 is the subreddit that this community is based on. The only official rules are that you must post before you leave and you can’t be a bigot. It ends up basically like r/shitposting, except aggressively pro-LGBTQ instead of anti.

      A tankie is a leftist who thinks that Mao, Stalin, and Castro were cool.

      A 196 is a meme sharing forum with the name 196. I don’t really know how to describe a tankie, but something like: a leftist person who glorifies autocracy and the use of force to make a leftist utopia.

        Thanks. I guess that I am grateful that I don’t know about either of those things.
