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.

Yesterday, I created my account on Lemmy.ml because I want to become mod on !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml. And I posted this comic on !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml It's SDV game cutscene where Shane a NPC go watch Sports game with you kiss you accidentily but It was part of that event also player kiss Shane(NPC) back. Here's video for more context. And someone claimed it have SA(Sexual Assualt) From Hexbear Ofcourse. So, I should delete it. I said it was a part of game cutscene. And If main player doesn't love the Shane(NPC) then they don't need to complete this event. And Just as a sarcasm I added Yeah we shoule delete this entire community because this game is Woke like Woke Detector Steam Group said. That user think I am some anti-woke dickhead something like that IDK. And tell me to Kill My Self. What I do now? I wanted on become mod on .ml because community was already well established. I message dessaline but I am sure he will not unbanned me. :(

Did I really did something wrong? I don't know If I really did something wrong.

Link for that comic if embed doesn't work.

Right, exactly!

Also I was unclear: I am likewise not against the (actual) communist content so much as I am against the "communist" content, i.e. I was saying that it doesn't even look like actual communist content to me. Like, Russia is ostensibly a "democracy", though really is a totalitarian regime, and also capitalist, so to claim that it is "communist"... does not fit with reality itself. And similarly for China. Also, America is bad for being a democracy (BUT!) and being capitalist (B-B-BUT!?) and for supporting genocide (b... 🧠 🦗), while neither Russia nor China somehow does any of those things - certainly not towards its adjoining sovereign nations.

Though you cannot bring up such "facts" or "logic", instead you have to dance to their tune, despite never being told what it even is. And it could change at any time. And they hold community content hostage to your compliance.

Hrm, if this all sounds terribly familiar... we have seen all of this before.

For one thing, even Huffman's Reddit was not as bad as that - it too forced compliance, but at least it was fairly open about that fact. (Here I'm ignoring the toxic userbases, of both Reddit and Lemmy.ml.) And 🤮X🤮 as well, though it seems far worse there (I never had a Twitter account though, so I'm probably hugely biased by seeing only the worst examples that people show here about it). But more to the point, this sounds to me like Maga behavior - regardless of factual evidence, your behavior must conform to comply with their unwritten rules... or else. Far-left vs. far-right, I'm honestly and legitimately not seeing much difference here, especially if Russia is somehow both at the same time (once in fantasy and again in real life).

Although at some point that becomes our problem, for condoning, excusing, painting over, or even simply ignoring the issue. Fortunately, Mbin, PieFed, and Sublinks are doing more about it:-).
