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.

The Article.

As far as the mod action here go, it signals that this is not a place for actual discussion and shareworthy news.

They are proving that their community is not for learning news and seeing stuff you would not otherwise had know it. This is a community to share only the things we all know/believe in.

The article is by CNN based on about 80 pages report by Dinah Project and shared and discussed by other outlets:

And other outlets.

The conclusion for me here is clear.

YDI. the claims you made are either debunked or lack sufficient evidence (source) I'm not too familiar with AP News but I do know the other three sources you listed are known for promoting IDF / Israel propaganda

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Associated Press is usually good. It's US based but it's usually unbiased and just reports facts. Their reporters were banned from entering the American presidential jet and palace almost as soon as Trump took office, so that should give an idea as to where AP's loyalties lay.

Oh, look... hasbara is butthurt because people weren't tolerating their white supremacist propaganda.

Yawn.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

white supremacist propaganda.

Words have meaning my dude.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, look… hasbara is still butthurt because people weren’t tolerating their white supremacist propaganda.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

their white supremacist propaganda.

Words still have meaning.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, look… hasbara just can't stop being butthurt because people weren’t tolerating their white supremacist propaganda.

Don't break your arm stroking yourself, bro.

Enjoy it, alone.

I rather live in the real world.

Oh, look… hasbara is now sulking because people weren’t tolerating their white supremacist propaganda.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This is debunked bullshit propaganda by the Israelis, so YDI.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Great, any links or sources for the debunking?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Stop trying to waste our time, hasbara.

Israeli reports.

They are currently trying to ethnically cleanse a whole other group of people. I would take any reports they made about the group they are trying to exterminate with a very large grain of salt.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 3 days ago

I normally hate on world news, in fact I have blocked it for quite a while out of disgust.

But this is a correct call, they did good here. The source is bad, it’s widely known to be propaganda, and its uncritical spread by USA mainstream media is a seen as a massive failure of journalistic integrity.

In other words, if the world news mods see this as a bridge too far, then other pro Israeli people should use caution when passing this blindly.

If one wants to know more about the hostages and what they suffered, read independent Israeli media instead.

YDW, you should be fucking banned for trying to excuse genocide.

All those sources are knowm to lie for zionist propaganda. Take your hazbara lies elsewhere. The sea, perhaps, as you walk into it?

I genuinely think better of /worldnews for removing this. The fact they didn't ban you for advocating violence is evidence they're still licking boot though.

The sea, perhaps, as you walk into it?

Is this a "kys" straight from 4chan ?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

trying to excuse genocide.

Where exactly did I do that?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

You are a blight upon the world. Leave.

YDI. It's Israeli propaganda meant to justify Israel's ongoing atrocities.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

It's Israeli propaganda

You got any proof of that?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 4 days ago (10 children)

Yes, an independent investigation source would be preferred. This was removed because the investigators were not independent.

YDI.

You posted a propaganda piece and you are moaning about it being removed as a propaganda piece.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

How is this a "Propaganda"?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What are you talking about?

Form a logical sentence, If you want to be taken seriously.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I don't really care if a fascist takes me seriously. I'd rather they didn't, makes the end game easier for me.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

I was not talking about me, I was talking about us as humans.

Our ability to form a logical sentences and communicate them is one of the things that separates us from monkeys.

Also, what end game are you talking about, thanos?

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Idk how anyone can look at that source, the Dinah project and not see them as propaganda.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)
[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

It's on the front page. Also sealioning is bad.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

What part makes it look trustworthy to you?

Oh and the fact it has Gal Godot on the board

Or that they just made a book calling it their report
