Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

1264 readers
504 users here now

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.

Liberalism is when you believe in voting against fascism to lessen the burdens on engaging in actual leftist action, I guess.

Extremely dire turbolib statement here, RIP

You only commented once there?

I wonder why Pug hasn't responded with his relevant comments after being asked.

Maybe someday Pug will at least try to follow comm rules. Until then, Crickets.

Literally quoted and pointed out that I hadn't broken any comm rules, but I guess that's less important than your weird beef with me.

[–] SpikesOtherDog@ani.social 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

It's okay. I like your turbolib ways. Keep posting you bodacious bastard.

Apparently being anticapitalist isn't enough anymore. Only opposition to casting a ballot for any reason can absolve one of the taint of Liberalism(tm).

Though that still doesn't explain what rule I was actually banned for supposedly violating.

[–] SpikesOtherDog@ani.social 3 points 1 week ago

Yeah, that line of thinking can absolve my taint.

Pretty sure the propaganda is liberals are super evil, vote for the lesser of 2 evils. If you are liberal, you should boycott the vote. That's how America got the way it is. If you like being controlled people, be sure to follow the propaganda.

I didn't read the rules because they are made up anyway. If you give me a minute, I can try playing devil's advocate.

The German SDP were anticapitalist too. It has never been enough. But anarchists have at least learned that lesson

In 2 years, when ICE will be going door to door doing blatant curb stomps, pug Jesus is still going to be whining about tankies not voting for genocide, as he posts bizarre memes about the good old days of the Union beating the confederates. Absolutely bizarre.

YDI.

Don't go into subs that you don't agree with, just to argue or try to prove someone wrong, and then get mad when you get kicked out for it.

Read the room, friend.
