reason: Rule 3 - No opinion articles

This is the article, as you can see it is very clearly a news article about a current event and not at all an opinion article.

reason: Misinformation. Two parliament victories out of 650 members is NOT a nightmare for the opposition.

It's a clickbaity title at worst, b ut it is not misinformation. A party losing a swing seat is not a good sign, especially considering Starmers growing unpopularity. This ban was purely a mods opinion, there was no 'misinformation'.

reason: Multiple posting rule violations, especially opinion and misinformation articles. Please read the rules in the sidebar in future.

The mod used these two lies to justify a ban from the community. What point is reading the rules in the sidebar meant to serve if they're not legitimately being enforced?

Seems like you got banned because you have long history of using low credibility site as new source, or those who use catchy, flashy headline that mislead reader from the headline alone. And i can see the removal of your posts from multiple different mod.

Try this instead: instead of posting stuff from those site that got removed, look for the same article from credible source, and post that instead.

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.

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.


Some acronyms you might see.
