Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

894 readers
182 users here now

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.


Posting Guidelines

All posts should follow this basic structure:

  1. Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
  2. What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
  3. Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
  4. Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
  5. Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

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.

Honestly, I'm not mad, its just funny how state/corporate sponsored violence is all okay but a pleb making a joke (its not even a real threat c'mon) is not okay.

Wasn't the entire point of moving to the Fediverse that we can easily switch instances if one goes bad?

Why are people still on .world lmao

[–] pineapplelover@lemm.ee 34 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Well OP did switch, indicated by the switched instance of their new account

[–] Yokozuna@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Been thinking about this for about a week now. How does one go about switching instances?

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Why are people still on .world lmao

Few reasons:

  1. I joined when it was one of the smaller instances

  2. Laziness

  3. Currently looking to move

[–] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

The fediverse will be at its greatest when communities can seamlessly switch instances. As seen from the minimal Reddit user migration, users won't switch as much as necessary to affect real change.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The large user base, and a couple of communities who don't care about current events. But it's not an admin thing anyway so - ? Does it really matter what instance it's on?

I dont' know what community that was in, but if it was one of the usual suspects, I'd say move to a different community. Not sure what .world has to do with it since it wasn't an admin thing, just some mod being mod. !Politics, I assume?

[–] granolabar@kbin.melroy.org 8 points 2 months ago

mods on politcs and news are neo lib acolytes, they mode for the ruling class while pretending to be one of us lol

If one protects CEOs aren't they the one advocating violence against the common people?

[–] toiletobserver@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

Yes, advocating for the killing of children in the most literal sense

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 60 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (2 children)

Fuck lemmy.world

We need to move communities off LW.

Lemmy is way too dominated by those bootlickers

[–] Nojustice@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

.world can suck the shit from my colon

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

desalines of ml is the ultimate power tripping bastard

[–] granolabar@kbin.melroy.org 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

At least they are not modding the shit out of working class sentiment with bullshit excuses.

.world is literally whoring for the ruling class... I wonder how much they earn on this grift.

[–] Sixtyforce@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 months ago

They do it for free, all the worse.

Ani.social mentioned!

Anyway, isn't beehaw way worse than world? Like, to the point they were at one point trying to leave lemmy so they could better isolate their community? As far as politics goes in Lemmy world is in control, sadly, since it's the worst part of world in my experience.

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Beehaw is isolationist = picky on who it federates with, but it's transparent on that. And the main reason why its admins want another software is the sorry state of the Lemmy mod tools.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 8 points 2 months ago (5 children)

It improved quite a lot since 0.18.3.

I always feel like Beehaw are in a weird spot. Either keep using Lemmy to keep up with the new features for both the mods and the users, or switch to Mbin or Piefed, they are viable options.

This in between is just strange.

Yes, beehaw is not ideal, I should probably replace that one with !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world

I think World just need to accept that they're pissing into the wind at this point, I've never seen a platform so united on something.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 20 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Try to praise Spez anywhere on Lemmy

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 16 points 2 months ago

That would be viewed as obvious rage bait on most of the platform.

You literally did what you were banned for and then pulled a "in Minecraft" with this post.

[–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 24 points 2 months ago
[–] BigDiction@lemmy.world 14 points 2 months ago

People who complain about moderation on this platform tend to be really obnoxious.

Case in point OP screenshotting a Royal β€˜we’ advocating murdering people in a job description with no other criteria and a couple generic emojis to boot.

Relative to the volume of content and platform tools available please just communicate responsibly. There is an objective standard for advocating for future violence and OPs comment clearly meets that.

[–] Strawberry@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 2 months ago

To be fair, the post is a news report covering the CEO's public mass death threat, not an endorsement of it.

[–] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

You're a dumb ass who needs to learn plausible deniability.

[–] HoneyMustardGas@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

Maybe they misread depose as 'dispose' idk .
