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:

  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.

Only Combat Videos that make us feel good about the death and destruction of war allowed, apparently.

Yeah it's always been a fash sub. Something tells me the mods are shared.

The US didn't bomb Yemen. Some bombs that happened to be from the US accidentally fell off a US bomber while coincidentally flying over Yemeni territory. Come on bro it's not like the US has been terrorising the middle east for decades.

Anyways PTB.

With how incompetent and how averse the current administration is to basic things like safety regulations and maintenance, I almost can't tell if this is satire.

I don't get how having footage of this is a bad thing for either side.

Pathetic... But also a valuable data point exposed. Got to love the mod log haha

!CombatVideos@sh.itjust.works is another regime front on fedi ran by bootlickers. They prolly do a circle jerk together with news and politics subs on Lemmy world. I hope these clowns get paid for all this labour

The posters and mods there a big Ukraine fans.

So all the more surprising they still want to quote the country calling Zelensky a dictator who started the war with Russia.
