This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.
Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions from mod(s).
- Provide the cause of the sanction (e.g. the text of the comment).
- Provide the reason given by the mods for the sanction.
- Don't use private communications to prove your point. We can't verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don't deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don't harass mods or brigade comms. Don't word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.
- Do not downvote posts if you think they deserved it. Use the comment votes (see below) for that.
- You can post about power trippin' in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.
Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.
Some acronyms you might see.
- PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
- YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
- BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
- CLM - Clueless mod: The mod probably just doesn't understand how their software works.

"where is the palestinian right to selfdefense" is dumb enough for a ban. fuck hamas, herzbüllah and the other terror proxies. and those who did not fight them are collaborators.
remember this: there are 9 ppl at a table and then a nazi joins. no one walks away? bam, 10 nazis.
Remind me not to sit at the table with you then.
Wait so in your view, the Nazis are Hamas? Israel is literally carrying out Liebenstraum. I in no way support radical Islamists, but Israel has historically supported Hamas over more moderate or secular political groups like the PLO. This is in line with the larger imperialist tendency to support radical islamists in middle eastern conflicts, such as the Mujahideen, a group that makes Al Qaida and Hamas look like boy scouts, with the aim of further destabilizing the region in order to secure mineral and oil rights for private interests. Palestine's most popular secular political leadwr, Marwan Barghouti, rots in an Israeli prison on made up charges subjected to constant torture since 10/7. This is what happened to the secular popular elements in Palestine, Israel terrorizs them! Israel terrorizes Palestine for 70 years, they created terrorists. This is obviously sad for regular Israelis, but especially Palestinians.
But come on. It's a genocide against civilians. You might as well blame Santa Claus if condemning Hamas, if you won't condemn the Israeli government that carries out these atrocities, as well as imperialism that perpetuates it and makes sure the right people benefit from the mass killing.
Hell, the IDF probably killed more Israelis on 10/7 than Hamas did. Where's your condemnation for them?
That's a funny thing to say about a people facing a genocide. Last I checked it wasn't the Nazis who were victims of apartheid and genocide but the ones doing those things. Like Israel. Have you no soul or have you simply not seen what Israel is doing? Would you like to read amnesty's report on why it's a genocide?

Ah but let us see what string of conspiracys you come up with to say amnesty is Hamas actually.
If you don't like Hamas, you must really dislike the guys who fund them:

Immortal Technique did a good job expressing why this is wrong:
I’ll gladly support anyone who opposes the genocide, no matter what methods they use. Every Israeli is a collaborator, there are no innocents.
