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.
- 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.

Thanks I needed a good laugh this morning! LMAO I'm no right-wing in any sense of the word, I just don't suck the dick of authoritarian regimes like you and other Tankies do. The irony here is that you Tankies are closer to right-wingers because of your authoritarian tendencies. See: Stethoscope theory
Oh also, you forgot to log into your .ml account because nobody is calling for defed from SJW lolol you're still in your "I'm totally from China" week old account LMAO
As often as you post outright racist memes, it's truly a wonder you have the gall to claim the things you claim.
You're just a disgusting bigot, no better or worse than a MAGAt. You're just content with state approved, democrat approved bigotry.
Tankie logic: Anything critical of China/Russia/NK = ThAT's RaCiSt BiGoTRy
Hate to break it to you, but the CCP is in fact an authoritarian regime with multiple human rights violations at its feet.
Nothin but a lil troll LMAO
Pretty sure they're just genuinely propagandized based on my discussion with them. But who knows
Yea it can be hard to tell sometimes lol
No, racist bigotry is racist bigotry, like believing Chinese people are a hive mind and must just be too stupid to want liberal democracy.
And no, people that disagree with you aren't trolls. You people came to the Internet too late and don't know the meaning of the word.
Yes, 400 million people are totally hive minded and brainwashed into believing a party line that's just so illogical to you, because obviously you have all the answers, and these 400 million people oppress a billion who are statistically higher educated and better trained with weapons than the US population, who trains with weapons outside military and special response police work. That's completely believable. Just like ten million people being locked up with no satellite evidence of any prison.
All this: because someone made fun of poor little Pooh.
Calling Chinese people yellow is racist regardless of whatever justification you give it.
I hope you eventually see Asians as people.
Who said he was yellow? I don’t recall seeing anyone say that. But I’d be willing to suspend disbelief enough to theorize that has they, maybe it was meant to imply he’s a coward. Because yellow is an old school term used to describe cowards- and, he is a coward…
So…
Shoe fits!
If you did this much mental gymnastics on a pic of Obama as a monkey, you'd be banned from all platforms except x.
Hope you understand that someday when you get better.
I’d suggest you go ahead and share a picture of that and we’ll see how I react.
I know how'd you react, you're an American so you'd break out the nword and claim he's a Kenyan that stole an election with the help of Jewish space lasers. That's all you people do now.
It’s pretty hypocritical of you to make a blanket statement about an entire country of people while in the same conversation, accuse people of racism.
Hate is hate, bro… and you have exemplified within yourself perfectly that which you accuse of others.
That’s all I needed you to say here. Thanks for taking the bait.
IDK what 400 million people you're talking about, considering there's more people than that just in the demographic that's retired and taking a pension in China, but I do know for sure tankies are a brainwashed hive mind. The Soviet Union coined a term for people like you, "useful idiots".
That's the number of people involved in the CCP. That's the number of people you believe are brainwashed, that you think have no internal dialogue, that you think have no critical thinking skills, that you think are either stupid or being forced to participate in what you call a dictatorship.
If you think 400 million people can, without a single desertion, maintain a conspiracy to control the other billion in behalf of one or truly any number of people... You're a maga Republican, conspiracy theories, etc. your thought process is no different.
Oooooh. Those people. No, they aren’t brainwashed, they know exactly what they are doing. You don’t need to work very hard when you give people ultimate power.
...they are voted into office or appointed by those voted into office. Every citizen has the right to vote. They are given power commiserate to their position. No one has ultimate power and anyone can have their power taken away at any time.
Do you think xi was a appointed by dynasty or something?
Do you just not know how governments work outside the US?
Ok, now tell me, who is allowed to run in the election. What’s that? Only CCP party members? That’s unfortunate. Well, surely anyone can join the CCP, without needing the permission of current CCP leadership, right?
Right? Because otherwise, it’s an oligarchy.
... Yes anyone can join except convicted traitors. No, the contemporarily elected leadership did not personally vet 400 million people by hand. Do you understand how insane you sound?
Crazy people always think it's everyone else who's crazy. I'm not complaining though, your comments, while a waste of your time, have been pretty funny. You probably have some idea that sitting here responding to everybody is somehow fighting disinformation or evil Western propaganda or some shit, but in reality you're just ranting like someone high on meth and being generally amusing.
I bet by now you need a hug, huh?
If you believe there's an army of 400 million hive minded subhumans controlling the world I really don't think anyone can help you.
I hope you live in a country with mental health care.
come on, get over here and get that hug, you lovable goof
You only feel this way because you agree in lock-step loyalty with Pooh that free speech and criticism of an oppressive world leader should be illegal. To everyone else that is capable of free-thinking and common sense-
It’s a freedom worth exercising.
I sincerely hope that when you’re free of the constraints of your edgy high-school angst and manufactured outrage, you’ll see how cringy it is to defend little Pooh Bear and hopefully come to your senses.
"hurr durr Asian man yellow" is not criticism.
Criticism is allowed and encouraged in China... But you have to back it up. Xi has a doctorate, all members of parliament have at least the equivalent of masters degrees. "Hurrtr duuurrrr China bad because of (insert something from 80 years ago from a completely different internal party)' isn't going to cut it.
I hope you get better soon. Racists are the reason the US is actively destroying itself via Trump's trade war. You need to be better if you want to survive.
It's interesting that the only people who think this is what the "Pooh" insult is, are the ones trying to claim that they're trying to stop racism...
I checked your comment history and wow… you’re nothing without your false accusations, are you?
I mean- I suppose with times being what they are, I can understand your hero warship of that coward Xi, your angenda-inspired rhetoric, and even the schoolyard edgelord insults, but accusing people of racism with absolutely no evidence to support it?
That’s sad and desperate.
And judging on the reaction you get, and your many mod/admin actions of removal- it doesn’t seem like it’s succeeded even a single time to achieve whatever result you’re after.
But best of luck on your next victim. Remember. Volume is key.
Thanks! And you have fun in your crusade to accuse everyone of racism because they disparaged your cowardly little dictator.
You've yet to disparage anyone, you just used a famously racist stereotype to describe an Asian. Or rather you're defending it an neither pretending you don't see the problem, or don't find a problem with your countries history and use of it.
In either case cletus, I hope you get everything you voted for with Trump. You deserve and have earned it.
Cletus? So… am I now to assume that to be another derogatory blanket statement of yours? Americans are somehow all rednecks now?
This, coming from the person accusing me of racism??
Man… it’s good you’re at least transparent with your hypocrisy.
