Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

MODERATORS
Depends on the mod, sometimes it is very specific (“sealioning”, “civility”, “trolling”) and sometimes it’s more general (i.e. “rule 4”, “rule 3”). As you well know as all those examples above are from the explanations of your removed comments.
And it’s fairly rich for you to speak on behalf of the community. But your semantic games aside, your ban was for a form of trolling. That’s a factual and true statement not up for debate. You can either move forward from it or not, but you can’t pretend it didn’t happen.
My ban reason says "sealioning" and not "trolling." If they wanted to ban me for "trolling" they could have said "trolling."
If you wanna think both are exactly the same, then have at it. But they have different names. I stated the facts. I didn't write the rules of this community, so feel free to take that up with the mods.
I haven't pretended anything. The modlog is public. Feel free to look at it and see for yourself. Thank you!
All sealioning is trolling but not all trolling is sealioning. ;)
@jordanlund@lemmy.world Very sorry to @ you, but it seems that UniversalMonk isn’t aware that he was banned for a form of trolling. Could you clarify for him, as he’s claiming that because his ban was for “sealioning” and not “trolling”, that’s somehow different. TIA
Now that you have a response from a mod on the fact you were indeed banned for trolling, we’re good, right?
Well you are certainly free to say that now if you want to.
But I will keep saying that I was banned for "sealioning" because that's what the modlog says. I fully expect you to jump in every time I say it, to update with your thoughts.
Because I can see that it's very very important to you. So I totally support you believing and saying whatever you wish.
And I respect the mods, but I disagree with them. And that's fine. It's their community, their rules. I have no hard feelings about it.
And it won't stop me from posting. Thank you!
Thank you I guess? Such a boon.
I mean, you were banned for sealioning, which is a type of trolling - as one of the community mods explained. To deny you were trolling now would probably give the mods something to think about next time you become an issue. Denying you were trolling just shows you’re not here to engage in good faith and makes every post and comment you make suspect.
I was banned for sealioning. As the public modlog says. I have never denied that. Ever. Thank you!
So trolling then, got it.
You stated:
We got clarification from the mods that “all sealioning is trolling"
Are you still going to be claiming otherwise?
I had a 3 day ban for sealioning. You can say and believe whatever you would like. Thank you, friend!
