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
- Post only about bans or other sanctions from mod(s).
- Provide the cause of the sanction (e.g. the text of the comment).
- Provide the reason given by the mods for the sanction.
- 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.
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.
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.
- 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.

MODERATORS
Lemmy.World mods are extremely Zionist and frequently ban users for saying anything remotely pro Palestinian or making a claim about Israel without evidence.
Saying 20.000 killed Palestinians were Hamas without evidence to justify the genocide however, is totally fine.
A very open Zionist "gedeliyah" got promoted to mod on their news community.
Do you have any example of this ?
He constantly brings up Hamas at every thread about Israel committing crimes and never condemns the IDF. The both sidesing is way too obvious.
Alright, found this post: https://lemmy.world/post/21895613
That is one good example but still pretty milquetoast. I'm talking full on articles about Israel openly calling for genocide and that mod barges in with the 'actually there are a few bad apples in Israel but that genocide thing is really what Hamas to do to Israel.'
And after doing that for a few months that the LemmyWorld team decided "yeah this guy has what it takes to become a mod here".
Their modlog has several examples as well.
If you have any link, feel free to share
Here you go https://lemmy.sdf.org/comment/14127174
They fully admit it and say it's okay they are one because it brings balance to the news mod team.
Again, is there a link?
I'm not pro or against them, but it's generally easier to use links to posts or comments when discussing this kind of statements
I didn't save the occurances of it.
But this is one I was thinking of

Thanks
The infamous "they"
???
Imagine being a regular person with no dog in this race personally and still going yeah, genocide seems good.
I just checked. It was two days ago, but the story about Amnesty International declaring it a genocide is still on the second page of results on !world@lemmy.world, and the very top story on !news@lemmy.world after a series of ones about the United shooting is about Israel killing an American family right after the US government told them where they were so they could avoid killing them.
If the lemmy.world mods are banning people for saying anything remotely pro-Palestinian, they must be busy with something else right now. Are you sure that someone wasn't calling for Israeli civilians to be killed, or something, and got banned for that? Because that might seem similar, to someone with a particular type of mindset, but it's not the same thing, and pretending it's that first thing when it's the second is dishonest.
You assume they have no dog in the race.
It's the most likely option. Unless your conspiratorial but I try not to be
I've found the news ones even worse
I wish it would be true, maybe there wouldn't be so many terrorist sympathizers on the biggest Lemmy instance in that case
