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.
Relevant comms
Also, still can't block communities we've been banned from on the community page. What a joke.
It would be a nice improvement! Currently you can go to settings -> blocks and you can add a block.
Voyager let's you block a community by a long press on the community name
It's funny how easy it is to get a nice list of bans over here.
Just downvote some stuff you don't agree with or think are low quality and eventually you'll find you're banned in several comms.
Call out tankies or make a negative comment about russia and you get some random lemmy.ml community bans.
I think it's mostly harmless, but can also see how it could be gamed to amplify some bad stuff.
People love their bubbles so in here they make even smaller bubbles.
Votes being public, I feel it is destined to be this way.
Probably PTB. It certainly isn't acceptable to ban a swath of people that down vote, and assuming your comment was topical and not some kind of crazy, that would apply to everyone thus banned.
The probably part is because there might be some outside chance a given individual might have also said something in a comment that warrantied a ban along with down voting. I don't think that's the case here, just don't have enough certainty to not acknowledge the possibility
No objectionable comment. No comment at all - just a downvote. And of course the mod downvoted this very post (*and comment, lol. Checking in to see what people think of you, eh?). How very "rules for thee" of them as they continue their sad little banning spree.
LW running the ML governance model.
Genuinely curious, what is the ml governance model?
I was being somewhat sarcastic. ML and Grad mods tend to ban anyone who questions their worldview, which is, oversimplifying it, all Communist governments are the best, no matter what. They have done and can do no wrong.
Ml and grad ban people who oppose Russian war of aggression on Ukraine . I am banning people defending warmongers and try to suppress information's about them. We are not the same
Someone down voting a post is not defending a war monger.
Downvoting a video about a warmonger warmongering is defending warmongers
I fully agree, why else?
Just like downvoting a post about pancakes is anti-breakfast.
You are so dumb. Downvoting a post about pancakes make you someone who don't like pancakes, it doesn't makes you anti-breakfast. And it is totally fine to hate pancakes or any other food, it is a matter of preference. Downvoting a post about a warmonger mongering make you a defender of warmongers.
I can't believe that I have to explain to you basic logic
And I can't believe you didn't get my joke.
It is not a joke. You tried to make a dumb analohy
Otherwise known as a joke.
A joke about how the whole "If you're not with me, you're against me" logic is terrible.
You have no idea why they downvoted.
