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.

PTB, comments celebrating a person who's horrible are not encouraging violence. This is clearly an attempt from the mods to push their agenda. Their replies here in this thread support this theory.
I think this comment snippet speaks for itself honestly.
yay, yet another venue for cultists to push their garbage on the unwilling.
So many things wrong with that statement, including the falsehood that only God can judge. We do have courts, including the court of public opinion.
Well, I’m as much god as whatever they’re worshipping, so I guess I’ll do the judging.
The dastardly, scurilous, vile agenda that human life is sacred. Well done Sherlock, you uncovered the next Hitler.
Human life is sacred. All the people who died because of denied insurance claims and corporate greed deserve their killer (corporate insurance CEOs) brought to justice. Unfortunately, this is the only way too accomplish that goal.
Human life isn't sacred. The prick who got murdered cared less about human life and has more blood on his hands than anyone celebrating his demise. People have been fighting insurance companies by legal means for years and things have only gotten worse. Violence may be the only way to get change. They already reversed that awful anesthesia policy that was announced the other day.
Why is it, that every time I see a post from you, you’re saying something stupid?
They're just one of the many trolls or bad faith lemmy users who hasn't been banned by the server you're on or their home server admins. Like Linkerbaan, hopefully they will in the future. I made a spreadsheet of users like that, since Lemmy itself has no way to tag or leave notes on user's profiles that only you can see.
Literally nobody believes that human life is sacred. They may want to believe that they believe it, but one only need look at the world to see that they contradict the claim with action every day.
What people beieve is that they're better than others, and "life is sacred" is just a tool in the toolbox of looking down upon others.
If they or even you really believed human life was sacred you'd see the piece of shit who died for the piece of shit he is as he and his company was responsible for the deaths of so many many innocent people. Instead of trying to hide behind worthless religious doctrine and saying it's wrong to be happy that this evil person died because "all life is sacred" this is like saying "All lives matter" as a reactionary response to BLM, it makes you and that other commenter sound like one of those alt-right religious types, in the same way saying "all lives matter" in response to BLM makes you sound like a racist pig.
You may think what you are saying is good and may be confused as to why people are angry at you. The fact is that the context of the situation can make something that seems and indeed is considered good in a vacuum can make it look and sound extremely bad and make the person saying it just as bad.
Hitler referenace check... Now do the Jews and the camps, dear 🤡
