All from in this thread in [email protected] about a chant at a British music festival where an artist said "death, death to the IDF".

After other users were quoting that chant in the comments and had comments removed and banned, the hero of our story, @[email protected] (appearing as "acargitz") pointed out that under international law, fighting an occupying force is legitimate. But apparently not under world news rules, as their removed comments and the many explanations from mods make clear in the thread.

Equally against the rules is the call for the eradication of an organisation or business, even without an explicit call to violence against individual members of the business.

In the same thread: user @[email protected] had comments removed for being anti-American "(again)", though I couldn't see the first time. It's not even clear to me how the removed comments were anti-American.

Bonus points for the "DC Comics" removal reason. Though this seems to be incompetence, rather than malice.

Obsessed with a hate sub because I'm a woman who talks about feminism. Pretty aure I wrote that about women's right to vote being actively taken away and men not standing up for our rights. May it feel like spit on your face every time you read it. May the shame imbed into you.

Here's some other quotes you can have of mine, you small dicked weasel

I have already explicitly told you I believe it because Lemmy is full of men who have no problem with rape, which is pretty fucking common.

Like your position is laughable - I’m unhappy as a woman regarding rape conversations, and I’m only getting downvoted because I’m not “smiling” enough in my comments. I’m sorry I have a bad attitude about rapists. I should really be nicer to them like you.

we can see how much a downvote is worth here. This isn’t a site for leftists or progressives, or even people with a basic understanding of the Civil Rights Era

Story of my account. These words exist as a monument of spite

Exactly. You were always a fascist regardless of my behavior. You were always going to be fascist and advocate for fascist things. My pleasantness or lack thereof is simply a matter of palatability and convenience for you; it doesn’t actually affect your morals because that isn’t how morals work. A black person can abuse me as much as they want and I won’t advocate for chattel slavery, for instance. I never thought black people had to earn the right to not be enslaved. Shame on you. When the Rs kill all of ypu men in wars and through shitty food, remember that scene from Mad Men - you aren’t doing it for me, because I never liked you.

I hope all abusive, misogynistic men hate me. I certainly hate them. May you all get ass cancer.

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.
