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.

So the guy can be a complete dick the moment he feels like he's being challenged, but it's also silly to imply nude baby pictures are giving people ptsd or something.
You make it sound like it's csam but they were talking about when parents show pictures of their kids in the bathtub.
Some people are scared of pickles, that doesn't mean we need to cover them up at the store.
You are very much the exception to the rule here and your unique trauma doesn't make talking about something that is normal behavior for the rest of the population somehow ban worthy.
It seems to me like you are overstepping here.
In a sense of anyone can get trauma from anything that makes them uncomfortable?
You also seem to be implying in that thread that trauma is anytime something made someone feel bad... trauma is a real thing that is, while not fully understood, still quite well understood.
That might be part of the disconnect between you and he. You are using a word that has a proper definition, but thinking it means something else, and wondering why your ascribed meaning isn't the one being conveyed.
Your issue is that a mod has opinions you disagree with?
I think you're misrepresenting that a bit. I admit I didn't follow the whole drama but all I saw was them objecting to calling parents who shared those pictures pedophiles.
