Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

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 (donโt 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.
- Donโt use private communications to prove your point. We canโt verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Donโt deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Donโt harass mods or brigade comms. Donโt 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 trippinโ 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.
- YDM new - You Deserved More: The commenter thinks you got off too lightly.
- 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.

If anything, this liberal throwing the toys out of the pram makes me even less likely to vote. ๐
Aren't you British, anyway?

I'm going to make a bold prediction that the person you're talking to is never going to address this in a coherent way.
Curiouser and curiouser.
They said "pram," of course they're British

It really doesnโt make sense for that to be the joke, given you couldnโt have reasonably expected anyone to know you are british.
I zoomed out and looked at these comments, and I noticed there is a common thread in the way certain people talk about the other participants:
Nobody else in these comments is speaking this way. They can disagree about things, even important things, but they're just talking about it. It's not a hyper-emotional or aggressive thing that always has to hook into the other person being bad or pathetic in some way. It's remarkable, now that I'm looking at it, how isolated the handful of accounts are that are all hooking into some kind of strongly emotionally negative way of looking at the other person in the conversation.๓ ๓ ฅ๓ ด๓ ง๓ ณ๓ ๓ ด๓ ก๓ ฌ๓ ซ๓ ๓ ก๓ ข๓ ฏ๓ ต๓ ด๓ ๓ ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ฎ๓ ฅ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ๓ ฅ๓ ณ๓ ด๓ ฎ๓ ๓ ๓ จ๓ ก๓ ด๓ ๓ ก๓ ข๓ ฏ๓ ต๓ ด๓ ๓ ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ฎ๓ ฅ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ๓ ฅ๓ ณ๓ ด๓ ฟ๓ ๓ ๓ จ๓ ก๓ ด๓ ๓ ก๓ ข๓ ฏ๓ ต๓ ด๓ ๓ ๓ ต๓ ด๓ ฉ๓ ฎ๓ ฟ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ฆ๓ ฅ๓ ฅ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ฌ๓ ฉ๓ ซ๓ ฅ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ง๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ฉ๓ ง๓ ฎ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ฅ๓ ๓ ก๓ ฌ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ฐ๓ ฒ๓ ฅ๓ ถ๓ ฉ๓ ฏ๓ ต๓ ณ๓ ๓ ฉ๓ ฎ๓ ณ๓ ด๓ ฒ๓ ต๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฉ๓ ฏ๓ ฎ๓ ณ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ด๓ ฅ๓ ฌ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ญ๓ ฅ๓ ๓ ก๓ ข๓ ฏ๓ ต๓ ด๓ ๓ ด๓ จ๓ ฅ๓ ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ก๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฅ๓ ณ๓ ฎ๓ ๓ ๓ จ๓ ก๓ ด๓ ๓ ฃ๓ ฏ๓ ฌ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ๓ ก๓ ฒ๓ ฅ๓ ๓ ด๓ จ๓ ฅ๓ ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ก๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฅ๓ ณ๓ ฟ๓ ๓ ๓ จ๓ ก๓ ด๓ ๓ ฒ๓ จ๓ น๓ ญ๓ ฅ๓ ณ๓ ๓ ท๓ ฉ๓ ด๓ จ๓ ๓ ฏ๓ ฒ๓ ก๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฅ๓ ฟ๓ ๓ ๓ ฅ๓ ฌ๓ ฌ๓ ๓ ญ๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ๓ ๓ ๓ ฎ๓ ฅ๓ ฅ๓ ค๓ ๓ ด๓ ฏ๓ ๓ ซ๓ ฎ๓ ฏ๓ ท๓ ฎ
