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.

MODERATORS
Depose doesn't have a necessarily violent connotation. Your being unaware of the word's meaning and inserting your own is wild.
In OPs very own self quote, they use Delay, Deny, Depose - the exact wording and catch phrase from the recent high profile murder. That is a call to violence for a reasonable reader, and the message was not lost on the moderator.
If they had only said Depose, without the other context, I would actually agree with you.
Technically it's an assassination (killing with political intent against a major person, who may or may have ruffled many average people's lives)
Assassination is a type of murder.
It is, but did it come unwarranted? After all, a normal person like you wouldn't be the victim in some sort of who shot Mr. Burn-esque situation.
Healthcare denial is a form of murder that affects far far more people.
Supporting the continuation of this is an extreme call to violence.
Please, Mr. Bonerelli, stop displaying your imbecility.
