Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

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.

MODERATORS
Is the moderor of that subreddit tokenboomer? Because I’ve had them tagged as “Tankie” for a while now.
It is. I would describe myself as an anarchist. I’m partial to council communism, and an advocate for a participatory economy. Just because I don’t join the circle-jerk of Marxist-Leninist hate doesn’t make me a tankie.
If only it weren’t for the fact that you’re an authoritarian, as has been shown in the point of this post, as well as your failed attempts to justify your decision to remove comments that you didn’t like- comments that broke no rules.
So then you clearly aren’t a tankie, I’m saying this as an ancom myself. I must misinterpreted something you said.
But I do often label people who continually will defend Russia/China as tankies.
I would love to live in a world without authority. But, in a country of 350 million, in a world of 8 billion, I’m afraid it may not be possible. I try to remain optimistic and hopeful that it can happen. But, given the state of the world right now it’s tough.
Your submission in "@progressivepolitics@lemmy.world moderator shares a national shutdown proposal, deletes dozens of comments for being skeptical or critical" was removed for: No badjacketing.
Is it badjacketing when they make posts like "fascism is necessary"?

Maybe "alt-right" is not the right label, but they definitely don't seem like a good-faith actor to me.
Looks to me that video title is facetious
Read their comments on that post, then. Right near the top:
Organizing workers through fascism is still fascism.
Did you watch the video or what?
You think a strike against Trumps America is a right wing move?
A failed strike could entrench him more, so it's definitely important to get all stakeholders on board with a strategy they believe in. The UAW was already working on a plan when they ratified their most recent contract.
