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.

Telling a known troublemaker they are on thin ice isn't "power tripping".
If anything it's a mistake to not ban them, their behavior hasn't shown signs of changing. When it comes to people like this banning them is the best thing for the community, or even the instance/fediverse as a whole.
I was hoping they just acted a bit harshly because of their concerns about the matter at hand, but it seems that that was a mistake.
Mhhh yes you had to "swing your massive modhammer around pre-emtively" and taunt users who call out the Democratic party for supporting Genocide.
Of course you cannot back up any claim about harrassing users either. In fact you are harasser.
Buddy you call almost anyone who disagree with you genocide supporters. You're very much discrediting yourself with how much you throw it around, and that you do it to people who are clearly not genocide supporters. That's why you are getting banned, turns out that accusing people of genocide support without merit isn't taken kindly on many communities and also instances.
Also you're accusing this person, and probably the rest of us of harassing you, when we are simply responding to and addressing your posts and comments. This is an example of bad-faith accusations that get you banned from most communities, and indeed a few instances as well.
I call people denying Genocide Genocide supporters. That's not much of a stretch for anyone who doesn't support Genocide.
The projection of Zionists knows no bounds.
Don't call random people Zionists when they're not actually supporting Israeli imperialism and chauvinism.
The user spams 50 paragraphs of insults and ad-hominems and this is the one you respond to?
The user dodges the only question whether Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are supporting Genocide.
"Anyone who disagrees with you is a Genocide supporter" turns into "Joe Biden and Kamala Harris don't support Genocide" every time with these people.
I would never do that.
So who were you referring to when you talked about Zionists projecting? Because I haven't seen anything from Draconic even implying that they're a Zionist here.
yes. I think both of you need to stay on topic, but this kind of jacketing is escalating things to the point where I'm going to have to start deleting comments to avoid all the drama inside the comm.
You being called out for bad behavior which got you banned and pointing out why people are banning you for it is not ad-homimem, or insults. Saying you make bad faith accusations is not an insult or ad-hominem. It is a statement of fact.
People don't owe you engagement, especially when it is severely off-topic for the community and when they don't see you as respectable enough to engage in a serious discussion. Something you have proved time and time again you are not.
What do you call this then "The projection of Zionists knows no bounds." Sure looks like calling me and other people here Zionists with just enough vagueness for plausible deniability.
OK, time for both of you to stop enaging with each other. I'm going to delete all further comments after this point.
Ok you're right, that was fun and all but it is getting tiresome and is going nowhere. Probably best now to stop. I'll do my part.
Your argument appears to hangs on the assumption that calling out israel and the Biden-Harris regime committing Genocide should be banned everywhere.
Do clarify your position though I'm very curious.
OK, time for both of you to stop enaging with each other. I'm going to delete all further comments after this point.
You also call people who don't want to vote for trump genocide supporters, claiming that they support joe biden doing genocide because they don't want to vote for trump, a classic example of you calling people genocide supporters for not agreeing with you. You're literally calling people in this thread right now Zionists because we're pointing out that it is your bad behavior and bad faith accusations which got you banned from a majority of communities.
Wait are you saying Joe Biden and Kamala Harris do not support Genocide?
Hope you have mod powers here to censor any replies else it's going to get obvious which one of us is bad-faith very quickly.
Hey look, doing it again. I think it's pretty clear to people that I'm not saying that at all, even if it's not clear to you. Let's be clear though, I'm not scared of you, you cry wolf way too often to have any real credibility left. Claim people say things they never said. People see through it which is why you get no sympathy here from people for getting banned and censored for the things you say and the way you act.
Impressive 3 lines of ad-hominems and no answer to the question.
So do they support Genocide or not?
Kiss my ass, I'm not playing your games. I don't answer to you.
You’re very funny.
Did you forget this? https://a.lemmy.world/lemmy.world/post/18634532, where you called the mods of news Zionists, because we banned you?
LOL! I knew it was bad but I didn't realize they were that delusional.
No I didn't forget Zionist Lemmy.World mods making up lies about me supporting child soldiers. I urge people to read that post.
Haven't forgotten about you banning me for calling out Kamala Harris for lying about Hamas raping women either.
All you do is lie to personally attack people. The sad thing is I side with your views with Palestine, but not your deceitful and hate filled approach.
YDI.
Yeah, he's done it to me too. They outright called me a liar in this comment thread when I pointed out their compete double standards when it comes to Israeli vs Russian war crimes. Just another unhinged tankie who only rants about the West while giving everyone else a free pass for war crimes. If someone is anti-genocide (like any decent person should be), but only when it comes to Israel and the US, then you've immediately lost the moral high ground imo.
You do not side with my views. Your side is Kamala Harris and Joe Biden which are perpetrating the Genocide. And you are even willing to ban users who call them out for spreading dehumanizing propaganda about Palestinians. Your side is denouncing the Houthi's for standing up for Palestine and pretending that anyone supporting that is somehow an advocate for child soldiers.
You don't even know me. You don't get to tell me what I side with.
Heard that one from JordanLund when he kept telling his little sob stories about his Lebanese friends (which are now getting bombed by Democrats because he provides them carte blanche censorship. He must be loving that).
The reason the question "Are Democrats complicit in Genocide" gets banned from tankie.world is because this is your answer:
And of course straight up Zionism.
Why are you switching topics? I was talking about your attitude to me, and you trying to tell ME what I believe. Jordan isn't a mod in news, and he's not me. Please - I implore you to find a comment I've said against Palestine. I'll wait.
Is this a case of you can't fight the argument, so you do "whataboutism"?
I think this might be a good explanation for why they are doing this, just a more harsh variant of the practice.
I'm 100% sure they are. I won't accuse them, though, because then they will report me.
Fair enough, personally I'm not that worried about it though since he's spent the last few years eroding his credibility. As long as you aren't harsh or aggressive about it there shouldn't be any issues.
What do you mean? You banned me from Lemmy.World/News for mentioning that Kamala Harris was dehumanizing Palestinians with debunked Hamas rape hoaxes during her debate. Which was fully on topic.
You quickly changed the topic to other users yourself.
Ah. Yeah. I see how you're spinning this. You were telling people how to vote, in order for you to answer their questions. Civility was the actual reason., but you're welcome to lie.
Where did I tell people how to vote in that comment? Do quote it.
Denounce:
People who denounce someone ~~is~~ are not going to vote for them. By saying that, you were telling people how to vote.
Now, back on topic. You call all mods (me included) Zionist. Did you find any evidence, or are you arguing in bad faith and being uncivil and insincere? You LOVE switching topics when someone calls you out. Answer the question, please.
"Well you see, if you say something bad about Kamala Harris that influences how people vote!'
You don't even know the difference between the word denounce and renounce.
Maybe you should scroll up and read the evidence. Something about a Zio.World mod advocating to send weapons to an Apartheid state committing Genocide which he believes is justified to exist. It's highlighted in red. Oh wait that's switching the topic!
You said denounce. I gave you a literal definition from a dictionary.
I'm still not talking about Jordan. I'm still talking about how you called ME a Zionist.
No what about ism. Stop evading.
Yes you linked a definition which you did not read. The word denounce has nothing to do with telling people how to vote. Simiilar to FlyingZionist you also appear to be fully unable to differentiate between an action and an entity since I asked if the user was willing to denounce the action of Harris spreading Genocide propaganda.
Besides your poor vocabulary your hypocrisy is also staggering. Your link above to FlyingZionist was asking me to condemn the Houthis using Child soldiers after actually lying about me using Child Soldiers. Which i did of course because unlike all of you Zionists I have no problem stating that I condemn war crimes.
So clearly you have no problem with people making insulting me, or even and making far more extreme demands than a simple denouncement. You only have a problem with people calling out the Genocidal Zionist Kamala Harris when she engages in Genocide propaganda.
Nor does Lemmy.World have a problem spreading misinformation about Jill Stein since the Zio bots are calling her a Russian spy on the daily. Only when Kamala Harris has an accusation thrown against her it must quickly be removed for misinformation!
Your double standards speaks for themselves.
Delicious bannings 😋
Calling out Genocide is very problematic on Lemmy.World
Oh, come on. You know as well as anyone else why you get banned from so many communities and it's not because you were "Calling out Genocide." Trolling and bad faith arguments aren't welcome in most communities.
Strange why would they need to lie so much in their mod logs then?
I don't know about any of that, I just know that you're not welcome anywhere civil because you can't act in a civil manner.
Weird I'm able to make a lot of posts outside of Lemmy.World's Blue MAGA communities. They're very popular.
See? It's fabrications like that that make people not take you seriously. That, and all the lies about whomever has the displeasure of debating you.
Anytime anyone attempts to debate you in good faith you automatically jump to calling them genocidal Zionists. Any time someone shows any contempt for Trump you call them "Blue MAGA." You don't debate in good faith, constantly rage bait, troll, and your sealioning and gaslighting gets old pretty quick.
No, it’s just YOU that’s problematic.
