UPDATE: The Unbans are showing up on modlog now.:

~~I have traded the month-long ban in the many communities for a 6-day ban in vegan@lemmy.dbzero.com, which is a more reasonable ban~~. this ban has also been lifted now. I appreciate the cooperation from the mod over this misunderstanding.
So it seems i've gotten a month-long ban in..... over 30 communities across lemmy.dbzer0.com, sopuli.xyz, lemmy.ca, programming.dev, and several others, for this comment here.
Screen cap of comment for posterity:
It's directly replying to a comment saying they can't imagine why anyone thought otherwise about fish feeling pain, which is reasonable. You might notice the quotation marks, because it's satirizing people's mental gymnastics about fishes' pain perception. It was meant in jest, exclusively.
It seems likely that a single mod took this joke wrong and chose to ban me on every community they have control over.
Some people are gonna give you grief about this, but you raise an interesting point. I was just talking about this the other day with my gf and my son over a vegetarian dinner we were having. There is more and more research about plants be more intelligent (for lack of better word) than we thought before. Still kinda taboo in science circles, but it is being discussed and looking into.
