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
- Post only about bans or other sanctions from mod(s).
- Provide the cause of the sanction (e.g. the text of the comment).
- Provide the reason given by the mods for the sanction.
- Don't use private communications to prove your point. We can't verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don't deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don't harass mods or brigade comms. Don't 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.
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.
- 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.
- 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.

Using heavy-handed censorship to create an echo chamber should not be tolerated. The thing that separates tankies from other leftists is their use of authoritarian overreach to enforce their political views.
Do leftists deserve to have their own space where they don't have to argue with debatelords constantly? Some spaces are just for leftists and that's fine. Some spaces are just for non authoritarian leftists and that's also fine mPeople don't deserve a platform for their opinions everywhere. They have the rest of the internet for that.
And no, having a space for leftists is not what makes one a tankie
You mean... do leftists deserve a safe space for posting hate speech?
No, I don't think they do.
I don't think so either. But they do deserve spaces where they don't post hate speech.
