Link to the Israeli propaganda post
Oh yeah that mod's one of the biggest Zionists on Lemmy.
Huh, didn't know. Makes sense why I got in so much trouble there for posting that video of the Israeli-Hamas hostage exchange where he hugged his former captor, as a show that the people of both countries don't want this, the leadership does. Boy they did not like that
Who also says totally doesn't let it impact their mod behavior
... as we all can see in this example.
Coincidently the same mod posted these Israeli lies:
And got downvoted af.
PTB for all the fucking obvious reasons.
PTBs. Genocide wouldn't exist without them.
PTB because rule 1 - "Be civil" is super inappropriate when it comes to an ongoing genocide and removing someone calling out propaganda in an impolite way is in a way taking sides
more on a personal note: Are you really sure you are helping Palestinians with this kind of online posting? Like I think you could actually make reasonable arguments instead of making snarky comments. Also every comment under Israeli propaganda increases the reach of said propaganda, especially on Lemmy where comments increase the "Active" metric by a lot and push otherwise ignored posts into the feed of thousands
Yes, using their freedom of speech does help their cause and it is important and can change minds.
One could argue that tone policing about ongoing genocide to keep it going is tye height of civility.
But I'm just being a bitter pedant. PTB, may it drown in its own rancid piss someday.
I actually second that. Block the suckers and move on. Worst case they end in a small eccochamber. Best case they end up yelling into empty space.
Blocking the mods doesn't stop them removing your comments because they justify genocide.
That is true. I just migrate and block to avoid wasting energy on undeserving people. I have a feeling that the mod in question feeds off making people feeling angry and powerless and I blocked them a long time ago.
I’m familiar with this person’s moderation behavior. They’re a Zionist.
I mean it's .world, soooo yeah

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.
