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.

By that argument no countries have a right to exist.
By singling out Israel people will assume you’re pushing the same antisemitic line.
Make better arguments and maybe that won’t be so easily swatted down.
Now you’re getting it.
Correct. Borders are lines drawn in the sand because of modern warlords called politicians.
"No one has the right to murder for land gain."
"That's wildly antisemitic!"
"I'm talking about Russia attacking Ukraine."
Murder and war is bad. It's not unique to Israel that murder is bad, because bloodshed is bad when any nation does it in the name of nationalism, and genocide.
No settler colony has a right to exist. If you believe people have the right to kill Palestinians and steal their land because "they're Jewish", then you are the racist.
This is akin to removing comments saying Russia has no right to colonize Ukraine.
Stop putting words in my mouth.
If you say “X has no right to exist” you’re going to get shut down because it’s a lazy inflammatory argument.
It's a simple and obvious argument. They'll be shut down because we live in a fascist society that denies basic history and reality.
I am not putting words in your mouth your argument is complete nonsense
Since you still don't get it let's do a 1 for 1 comparison and swap for Israel with another religious ethogroup which murders civilians because it believes it has a right to a historical land.
Does ISIS-K have a right to exist in Syria?
This is a question that zios never want to talk about.
