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.

im speaking from my experience as much as you are from yours
Sure. In general, whether someone will have a better time on .world or on Hexbear is largely dictated on if they are a Marxist or not. I am very openly a Marxist, the rest follows naturally.
if I weren't such a charitable bastard i'd be tempted to say that sounds one-note. good for us I am modest and magnanimous and would never say such an uncharitable thing.
What do you disagree with about what I said?
okay, i'll lay it out plain:
I think hexbear is an echo chamber. Well, more of an echo chamber than most other instances, anyway. That's what I mean by one-note. There's only one flavor of idea on display in there and other opinions are usually treated as wrongthink. I literally think it's figuratively 1984 in there. Not only that, but I have seen hexbear come out in brigade fashion occasionally. Actually, I'll bring that back- I used to see hexbear brigade; this last, I dunno, 6-8 months not so much. Possibly coincides with my blocking the instance so my opinion may now be skewed. What do I disagree with? Nothing. It's an instance that is extremely tolerant of marxism and very intolerant else. I just was trying to get you to put the idea of "one-note" and "In general, whether someone will have a better time on .world or on Hexbear is largely dictated on if they are a Marxist or not." together.
also y'alls memes are stale and tedious and excessive, since im sayin

Brigading is still happening
On the internet, there are few genuinely pro-Marxist spaces. Calling it an echo-chamber is also pretty one-note, dontcha think? As a Marxist, it's fantastic to not have constant struggle sessions with liberals that haven't read a word of Marx acting like they know him intimately, which personally is my experience on my Lemmy.ml account.
Going on Hexbear is relaxing, on the contrary. There are struggle sessions every once in a while, but I learn far more there and argue far less.
i dont hate, i just dont enjoy. even if i did hate, fuck me. yall go off and slay and all that.
