my first ban (sh.itjust.works)

I thought this silly. Banned for violating rule 1 (sexism, descrimination, etc). Literally laughing irl right now since my post was specifically antidiscrimination.

no idea lol

At worst I would have categorized your question as insensitive or maybe inflammatory. At worst.

Ah well, that's .ml for you.

[-] qevlarr@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago

Looks like a troll post. Remove would have been fine. Ban seems a bit much but still understandable.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 28 points 3 days ago

Despite any possible moral calculus, the basic premise of your question is still "more death better lol?" and comes off as almost certainly in bad faith.

[-] deegeese@sopuli.xyz 27 points 3 days ago

You’re over here rules-lawyering when it’s obvious you were trolling for lulz.

[-] FreeBird@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 3 days ago

By "women and children" they mean civilians.

[-] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 13 points 3 days ago

They probably viewed it as incel bait.

Boo, no fun allowed

[-] Telorand@reddthat.com 7 points 3 days ago

I'm going to go ahead and say YDI, since the scope of that community isn't really shitposting, but FYI:

...both exist. You might have more fun with your trolling there.

.ml as usual trying to justify anything they dislike as bigotry or sexism. Should probably also post about this on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

I'm a little jealous - no matter what I say about them, their won't ban me. Probably I would have to post in one of their communities to make that happen, except I can't be arsed to bother with it:-).

[-] Rhoeri@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

Had to look it up to prove a hunch. This should go under PTA. .ml mods are useless tools. The admins do all the work. The one that removed your post and banned you is a notorious coward that hardly ever peeks outside of the .ml wind-tunnel.

Consider it a badge of honor or a scarlet letter depending on wether or not you want to own the fact that you ever felt the need to say something in that shithole to begin with.

BPR

However, it's still crappy moderation because they can't be bothered to address it correctly

It is also interesting to me how many people consider it a troll question. It is most acceptable to kill only men and no one beside me sees anything sexist about that? How is discussing that troll? I have trolled trillions of times, but this one is an actual facet of our world to discuss. I would actually say those who cannot view this as anything but a troll question would also 100% kill the men and leave the women unquestioningly as 'the one true way'. Doesn't mean me highlighting your sexism makes my question troll. We are in a world now where both sexism is bad and women are not inferior. Duh the ideal is to kill no one. This question isn't about that. Reminds me of modlogs where mods ban ppl with different ideologies than their own with the reason being 'trolling'. Consider my question trolling and I consider everything you ever do trolling. :)

Dude if you wanna fuck guys just say so

[-] Katzimir@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I agree, the idea that the lives of 'women and children' are more valuable that those of not women and children is contrary to the premise of what i see as one of my moral axiom: all humans are created equal, every life is sacred. Including lives of people that do more harm than others. care for those we despise is a testimony of our morality. an analogy: It is easy to respect the value of a puppys soul and easy to decline it for a wolve that maimed one of your sheep. Neither of them deserves to be subjected to unjust harm. This is also why i cringe every time i see how flustered reactions become when people being inhumanely deported to concentration camps without due process are recognized as legal citizens vs how ok they are with it, if the person is alledged to be an 'illegal alien'.

I love your wisdom. Thank you. I agree all life is sacred.

Assuming you don't have some naive belief like that militaries aren't necessarry you're essentially arguing for child soldiers. GG

Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

749 readers
703 users here now

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.

YTPB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.


Some acronyms you might see.
