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.

MODERATORS
You need to post a screenshot modlog so we can see what you wrote and why they said you were banned.
Anyway I looked it up myself. I agree with your point and have been frustrated in the past by the echo chambers in the communities focused on the war in Ukraine but you were very rude and insulting to people so I can understand why you were banned. It’s not totally clear but the modlog seems to imply that you may have sent the mods some insulting messages as well.
So I’d say not power tripping bastards, at least in this specific case.
"Enabling Russia? You are completely unhinged. But I'm not surprised that a chudd with a username like "nuke" is a delusional internet-bro moron who doesn't understand psychopathy. I'm gonna go out a limb here and assume uneducated American &/or military jarhead; all testosterone, feefees, and no brains? What I am surprised is that the average here think that "conquering" a nuclear power is smart. Lucky for me though, the entire western world will drop all military support for Ukraine if idiots like you are in control and actually try to march on Moscow after defeating Putin."
"I mean fight them back and contain them in their borders obviously, but apparently the average on Lemmy is thick, slow, and ignorant, so I'll spell it out for you... Once the goal is to "conquer" a nuclear armed dictator, you run the risk of cornering a sociopath who has nothing else to lose and is likely to murder everyone if they can't have it all. Dictator = sociopath. Nuclear war = psycho. EVERYONE DIE. Triggering nuclear war = dumb cunt... Get it?"
YDI
YDI. You went into an explicitly pro-Ukraine comm to spread pro-Russian perspectives. They literally have the first rule as
Sympathy for enemy combatants in any form is prohibited.
.
that cornering a sociopathic nuclear armed dictator is recklessly stupid, and exactly what will trigger a nuclear war
Out of curiosity, would you also argue that palestinians "cornering a sociopathic nuclear armed dictator is recklessly stupid"?
