It's a temp ban and they simply asked you to calm down.
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:
- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
- Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions that you have received from a mod or admin.
- 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.
- If you are the accused PTB, while you are welcome to respond, please do so within the relevant post.
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.
- 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.
Relevant comms
Yup, this is YDI. Minimum mod action, and you were being nasty in a community that isn't set up to allow that.
"Nasty"...? Tankies are intolerant, they deserve no tolerance. They are violent, they deserve no mercy. They are hateful, they deserve no kindness.
There is nothing Nasty about calling it what it is.
Look, let's say I agree with that. I think your take lacks depth, but I'll play along.
Yeah, those tankies suck.
But if you roll up to my house spitting rage and hate, IDGAF if I agree with the underlying principle, you're an asshole, and I'm kicking you out.
The community you were in was just escorting you to the door for being obnoxious. And you were. You still are.
You have the freedom to have your opinion. You can even broadcast it anywhere you want. Once. Nobody has to let you back in the door when you disrupt a community with unrelated venom. It's like some. Mormon coming to your door when you've got it open for a nice breeze and bitching about how much Jehovah's witnesses suck.
It stinks up the place.
Oh yeah,YDI
YDI. Maybe stop embodying the idea of 'scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds' for a few days and you might see why your actions even alienate relatively normie communities.
Imagine opposing liberalism and thinking you're anything other than a fascist.
Liberalism and fascism have more in common than you think, which is why socialists often say, “scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.”
I must make two honest confessions to you, my Christian and Jewish brothers. First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

oh, someone needs to tell you: there is a cure for political illiteracy.
Mate, in my country the liberal party are the fash. Pull your head out of your bum.
The concept of liberalism doesn't equate to your specific country's liberal party, just as the Republican party of the USA don't support a representative democracy, the People's Republic of North Korea isn't a republic and does not belong to the people, and the Chinese Communist Party isn't owned by the workers.
yeah just chill tbh there are places for that angry rhetoric and it’s not where you were posting it
It was exactly the place for that rhetoric, it was a discussion of lemmy on a community about the fediverse. It was the central topic.
I think you need to accept you're not getting any support for this, and move on. Multiple people have told you you were out of line.
I've gotten enough support to warrant the post.
oh well huh lol
YDI. Of course homophobic insults are going to get you banned.
You catch many bans from many instances, with this finitebanjo account and with your previous one. The problem is that you’re a bad netizen.
Lmao what homophobia?
Okay keep wasting the mods’ volunteer time and catching bans then. By now some of them probably recognize your name and have little patience for you.
Not going to talk about your blatant lie?
Just because you don’t think the insult was homophobic doesn’t mean it wasn’t.
Edit to add: Oh, I see. I was conflating this comment of yours in [email protected] which was removed comment a few hours before with your ban from [email protected]: https://lemmy.world/comment/15673050
Still a homophobic insult, just not the mod action in question here.
Tankies are known for supporting countries that have a long ongoing history where they jailed or executed people for their sexual orientation. Hostility to Tankies may as well be an advocacy for LGBT rights.
Edit: You don't have to be gay to suck Dictator Cock.
You don’t advocate for LGBT rights by using LGBT sexuality as an insult.
It's not wrong to perform fellatio, but to perform fellatio for a dictator is definitely lowering yourself to subhuman levels. The dictator doesn't love you, the dictator will not return the favors.
YDI. The other comments probably just got swept up in it, it happens, but that first that triggered mod action is def over the line
There's no need to get angry like that, or at least type it out, fight the tankies with logic, reasoning and evidence not a bunch of expletives and slurs
You can say fuck on the internet. You absolutely should call Tankie scum at every opportunity.
Tankies don't use logic, trying to reason with those intolerants is just turtles all the way down. Anybody who wants to foster healthy community on Lemmy should promote open hostility towards Tankies
You can say fuck on the internet.
Yes, but you're not being judged just because you used it but how
You absolutely should call Tankie scum at every opportunity.
No, you shouldn't, "Tankie" by itself targets their ideology and their actions (Pushing misinfo, propaganda etc) by adding "scum" into it or other slurs you shift that target from ideologies and behavior to the actual person. Not cool. For the most part, they're just people being used as tools by the real evil people pulling the strings.
Tankies don't use logic, trying to reason with those intolerants is just turtles all the way down.
That's fine, remember, your arguments are public so aren't just about convincing a tankie, but any potential observers as well
Anybody who wants to foster healthy community on Lemmy should promote open hostility towards Tankies
No. Absolutely not. They can have their community, we should be promoting defederation, boycotting and general awareness.
You know I'm pretty anti-tankie around here, and even I'm saying, chill out open hostility does nothing but anger everyone.
All Tankies are scum
"You know I’m pretty anti-tankie around here"
Your actions today are painting a different picture.
This sort of behavior is why YDI
Why are you always defending Tankies? People have told me you're definitely not a Tankie, they've vouched for you and this instance, but in every interaction I just see you defending the people currently leading for most destructive and violent collection on the planet.
I didn't defend tankies? What the fuck are you on about, mate?
You literally just told me that insulting Tankies should be a bannable offense.
That's not what I said. Work on your reading comprehension.
I love it when they come in with screenshots of them using the vote button incorrectly.
They also seemingly like spreading incorrect information too which is telling :eyes_roll: and I thought I'd give their account a skim since their comment smelt funny

The video itself is a set of instructions, and when a video player interprets those instructions there is a window of opportunity.
Nothing to do with "video players" and pulling shit out of their arse is hilarious
Hah whatever dude, you're doing more harm than good flying off the handle like that. It just gives them something to point to when they bring up their "we're just being bullied :'(" arguments
When Tankies are being bullied all is well with the universe.
Comparatively we don't give empathy to Nazis, we shouldn't give any to Tankies either.
YDI always raging out in like every community from memes to news articles to fediverse
why do you make more comments about tankies then ive ever seen tankies make?
Here on World, you and I don't see the Tankie Triad in the main feed, thankfully. But they are here, and they wish you ill.
I've never raged against anybody, and I've never scolded anybody unless they were an advocate for harm unto others. That unfortunately applies to quite a lot of people in political discussions.
PTB seems like an overreaction on the mods part. Ur not gonna find much sympathy here tho the mods and most users will just irrationally hate you for not agreeing with them politically.
