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

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.

YTPB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.


Some acronyms you might see.

You ended up being right - well perhaps both of us actually but more you. The Drag scenario was mentioned as being specifically not a primary cause, though I still think it looks to be more like salt having been rubbed into an existing wound, so adding emotional force to a preexisting impetus.

And the details are more sparse but indeed the preexisting decision by LBZ to allow LGBTQIA+ tankies from lemmy.ml loomed heavy in the background without much being said about it directly (edit: the source for that thought is the comments in the related posts, not that I know anything about that directly). Though the promises by LW admins - despite that flying HEAVILY in the face of their recent announcement - seemed to have an enormous role.

I am speaking of this latest post by the mods: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/20976989.
