Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

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.


Posting Guidelines

All posts should follow this basic structure:

  1. Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
  2. What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
  3. Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
  4. Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
  5. Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

Rules


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.

YTPB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.


Some acronyms you might see.

Formatting in the modlogs is weird since the spacing is messed up, but the original comment looked like this:

Netanyahu:

Delays ending the genocide for as long as he can

Deny that genocide is happening

Next comes Depose

Great, what next?

"Kill Hitler" also gets removed? 🤣

Also: Depose =/= Kill

To be fair, your call to violence is very think veiled. I agree with you, and think you should be able to wish BB a very timely nap, though.

Too bad someone already did.

Wait, maybe we can resurrect him and do it again!

Oh wait...

Flying Squid and Jordan Lund are the mods, they’re both Zionists. Anything critical of Israel or the genocide is going to get removed.

Don’t call Flying Squid out over it, or he’ll just start constantly repeating about how you hate him because he’s a Jew.

I’m sorry but I’d hardly call flyingsquid a zionist. He has repeatedly stated that the human rights abuses in palestine are unacceptable and is openly very critical of the israeli government.

PTB, as nearly always with .world nonsense.

You simply stated the natural progression of action of the oppressed to the oppressors, as recently demonstrated by a nice young person in New York.

ML has always been fairly tame*, the problem is liberal programming has made them react violently to anything that threatens the status quo, and ml users tend to offer critical support of distasteful people and regimes.

The way neo/libs are reacting to this topic is the same as they react to anyone questioning why zelensky is now one of the wealthiest people in the region.

Edit* compared to the grad or hexbear or some unspeakable instances.

I don't get it, if they dropped the cult of personality bullshit they could enter mainstream. They can't honestly as adult people be larping some dead genocide daddy. I am mean I guess all countries look to "their leaders", some people think Kissenger did nothing wrong. So i can see it as reactionary to that but we are trying to operate at higher level here tbh.

I fought the law and the law ~~won~~ beaten me to death on the street

😓

It’s .world, they’re all raging liberal zionists.

You did nothing wrong!
