just several days ago, after 7 posts and at beast 150 comments, i (under !DylanMc6@hexbear.net) got banned from hexbear for "History of repeating US state department talking points, anti-socialism and zionism".

this ban came after some of my comments were deleted for either "zionism", "fedposting" or "manufacturing consent" just a week ago.

after my hexbear account got banned, i continued to post stuff on hexbear communities through this account (!@DylanMc6@lemmy.ml) (because lemmy is part of the fediverse which means i can log in to a different lemmy instance with this account), and just earlier today, a couple of my comments (about charlie kirk) that i posted on !slop@hexbear.net were deleted for reasons of "Liberal civility politics".

hexbear also deleted another comment i posted there where i said "we should segregate clankers from society", as well as another comment for the reason of "libertarian" simply because i put "left-libertarian".


left-libertarianism is a form of libertarianism that combines individual freedoms with social equality, and can be used to mean "antiauthoritarianism" - an example of left-libertarianism is libertarian socialism which supports self-governance and workers' self-management.

although i support left-libertarianism, i find collectivism to be pretty interesting - i think that individuals are worthy of respect and freedoms, but i also think that the individual CANNOT organize alone - collective action is very necessary.


most of me realized that what i said on hexbear can be misunderstood as "us state department talking points, antisocialism and zionism", and i apologize for that.

on the other hand, part of me is very glad that i got banned from hexbear because obviously, some people there is extremely hardline.

i apologize to any hexbear people reading this, i just had to do a rant here. seriously!

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:

  1. Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
  2. What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
  3. Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
  4. Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
  5. Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

Rules


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.
