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.
All posts should follow this basic structure:
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.
YPTB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.
Some acronyms you might see.

YDI.
It’s fairly clear from the sidebar that the community positions itself against ML/grad.
The moderator is well known for being hostile to “tankies”. At the same time .ml itself has banned Deceptichum from communities they’ve never engaged with based purely on their ideological values so it feels hypocritical to complain about them doing the same unless you also disagree with .ml's moderation.
I got banned from a dozen out so communities cause I had the gall to claim Hasan did actually shock his dog.
What's funny is they cite "serial down voter".
My siblings in baahl, I never even knew those communities existed, and votes are public, and I very rarely down vote anything. Like it really is 50:1 ratio.
I have read a few times that .ml bans people for downvoting anything.
China is persecuting the Uyghurs, they are forcing them into harsh programs to strip them of their non-Chinese cultural aspects. Some academics see this as a type of genocide, as they are effectively erasing a culture/ethnicity. Most feel there has to be a physical displacement, or mass killings in an attempt to destroy their people, to truly qualify for this label. I am on the side of the latter. I can understand the former's argument, but I think cultural erasure, rather than physical displacement/mass killing, should be a separate atrocity. Looking at what OP has been saying, it seems they believe this too.
Only thing I really see on leftist spaces that bothers me, in this arena, is the people who will argue as I do about the Uyghurs, but consider the residential schools of North America a genocide. The natives went through a real genocide, cultural erasure was a clear step back in depravity. An atrocity none-the-less, just not THE atrocity.
The biggest source on this is Adrian Zenz and the victims of communism memorial.
Anything's possible when you make shit up
ya gotta follow the guidelines in the sidebar:
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.
Thanks!
There is no link to the content, or the modlog in your post, just a link to another community where you also posted this...
Weird, must be my front-end then, sorry about that! Linking now: https://lemmy.ml/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=19596601
Weird that ML is a reason when that's not in the rules. Wonder why they don't block the instance or have a rule against them posting.
PTB though. Persecution is bullshit but not the same as a genocide.
