You kind of seem like a shitlord that brings negative vibes whenever possible, just from comments alone.
How was I negative?
"Cope," "seethe, "cry harder;" as examples. Basically just stuff that would harsh the mood if we were all just chilling at a pub. It's cool that you have different ideas, but there's a certain toxicity to calling out the misfortune and fears of others that promotes negativity in the community.
You can celebrate your win and different perceptions in ways that don't feel as rude, hateful, and divisive. You don't have to, but that means people aren't going to like you or want you to be a part of the discussion.
Honestly, it's hard to not make fun of your opponents when they lose. We do it everywhere. Like in sports. I guess you're right though. Considering the tense nature of the community, I shouldn't have let the urges get the better of me. Thanks for the reply.
Oh gosh, it's SO hard not to kick people when they're down. So glad to hear such an untoxic sentiment from such a good sportsman.
I suppose you have never made fun of anyone in your entire life?
I read through the logs and your post/comment history. You sound like at best an edge-lord, and at worst an alt-right troll. This behavior is generally not taken well on most social media platforms, and Community run Fediverse platforms, even more so.
Fact is you can have political opinions, but you also need to understand and be aware of the facts, and the fact is that Donald Trump is a fascist and has on more than one occasion advocated for fascist policies, including extremely hostile and discriminatory policies towards transgender people. This is a fact, it doesn't care about your feelings, or whether you think that these policies are acceptable, they are still happening and they are hurting people. This is why people are pushing back, and also why you are getting banned or not taken seriously, and you do deserve it, because regardless of what you or anyone else thinks, people are and will get hurt from it.
Honestly you should expect this type of thing to happen more often on Lemmy and fediverse platforms since individually or community run platforms will not tolerate the same type of content a corporate platform will, since their moderation focuses on community health, not ad-friendliness, and one of those things is protecting minority members.

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:
- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
- Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions that you have received from a mod or admin.
- 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.
- If you are the accused PTB, while you are welcome to respond, please do so within the relevant post.
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.
- 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.
- YDM new - You Deserved More: The commenter thinks you got off too lightly.
- 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.
