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.

Yeah. I don’t think it’s any kind of malicious misunderstanding or anything, he’s just set in his thinking, as are a lot of people on the internet. But yes it’s pretty funny to cut off the “nothing” statement right before the “other than” part, and then bring up as the first two examples stuff that was included in my “other than.”
Maybe the root cause is that he doesn’t think of the military or police as being made of people, which is an understandable but critical error. He thinks of him and his friends as “people,” but people in other walks of life as some type of robot or different species entirely maybe, which if so, isn’t a good way to look at it.
No, my problem is that your analysis/prescription is entirely vibes, entirely thought-form based.
Oh and thanks for pathologizing me like an object while claiming that that's actually what I do, very charismatic and reasonable approach to try to sway another person's opinion.
I spent a while trying to explain to you what I was saying. It seems like you're not into it. That's okay.
Now I'm talking to someone else, who also noticed you being resistant to picking up what I'm saying, about why that might be. I get that the presentation is kind of insulting to you. But I don't know, that's how I see it. I'm not trying to sway your opinion in any respect. I'm presenting what I think, and spent a decent amount of time on it, and what you do with it from here on out is completely up to you.
