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.

I made a post about the Europeans who are being deported from Germany for being anti-genocide. https://lemmy.ml/post/28407953

A user repeated the now many times debunked lie that these victims facing deportation were "violent racist rioters". Blatant German propaganda, made up to smear opposition to the genocide in Palestine. Which Germany supplies 30% of the weapons for.

After calling them, and a few other users out for repeating the same lie, the moderators banned me.

There is a war between two religious fundamentalist parties.

Like fuck it is 🙄

There is an oppressive occupation of mostly defenceless civilians, not "war between two parties". Unless you consider Nazi final solution "war between two parties".

Just realise I'm arguing against someone who honestly asks "should vegans who raise their kids vegan get their kids taken away?"

And makes fun of women who are afraid of going out at night in fear of violence from men...

Guess we don't have any common ground for a good faith discussion

I guess we don't as I am finding defending nazi murderes abhorrent and drawing comparison between them and their victims, a behaviour only a total cunt would possibly engage in.

Strawman xD I am not defending the Israeli state, fkin fascists need to be stopped. But that's the thing with you guys, your world view is so narrow that you can't possibly imagine someone having a differentiated view. In your eyes anyone who disagrees with you on anything must be a supporter of the other side. You can't believe someone actually arguing about actions he believes are wrong. You promptly see red and think he only criticize you because he is an agent of your enemy.

Both can be true lol. Being oppressed AND being fundamentalist religious.

There are also oppressed parts of that party who are not as religiously fundamentalist, like the fatah. But being on the oppressed side doesn't make the hamas less religiously fundamentalist. Like fighting against the Nazis in ww2 didn't make USA less a capitalist party

Don't get your point here.
