Ouch, yeah, that clinches it.

PTB.

That was an interpersonal misunderstanding that got twisted into ban. Not just a removal, and not even a temp ban.

That's just someone swinging mod dick because they can.

I wanna give the benefit of the doubt, but the way the conversation went, they even said It was a misunderstanding, then changed their mind.

Even if you were pulling shit elsewhere, I can't see evidence of it in your user history, so it makes the claim of you baiting habitually dubious. I kinda doubt you went amd scrubbed your user history, soooo, PTB, yeah.

Thanks for putting in the extra effort for a solid evaluation here. Not everyone does. It isn't a requirement, but it really does make it easier to get a good feel of events when it's possible

Didn't say it was your fault, I'm just saying it makes it difficult.

With no screen shots of the removed comments, this comes down to ifs.

if the mod's reason for the ban in the mod log is accurate, it's YDI.

If your take of things is accurate, it's at least clueless mod, probably PTB.

Rule 5 of that community requires some degree of personal judgement on exactly what is and isn't baiting, so it isn't necessarily power tripping to be wrong in that judgment. So, they could have been wrong in their determination without it being them just swinging mod dick, and it looks like that's what happened here, based purely on the rest of the thread that's visible.

Not knowing the exact wording used in your comments makes it hard to make a clear estimation though, so that's all I got.

Yeah, my copy is in decent condition, and I've had offers of 200 for it.

Alas, I'm a giant geek and refuse to sell it

Kinda.

You can't actually see the house. It's covered from above by trees, and from the road by trees and shrubberies.

You can see the fence a little, and the roof of the shed from the road, if you pan around a little, but not the house itself.

Which is lucky, I guess, since my sasquatch looking ass like to hang around naked on the front porch mocking the gods

You know, I'm lucky.

Back about 2010, the only thing keeping me alive was my dog. But since then, even with the bad things like losing that amazing girl, I keep finding happy places.

My wife. My kid (when they're not playing the sulky teenager). My niece. My chickens. Good music. Writing. I'm a lucky motherfucker. I have happy places now. It's all temporary, since all things are transitory and ephemeral, but right now I have an embarrassment of good things that I wish everyone could have. Like, not my things, I'll pop a cap if anyone tried, but you know what I mean.

Doesn't fix the bad stuff, doesn't mean there aren't bad things. But I'm lucky

Just like lemmy more

There was a time I wouldn't have been able to choose. Truth be told, the only reason I can choose is that I can't hike any more, so that's what I really want back.

But, ngl, at my age, I think I'd end up choosing the beach more often than hiking if the ability came back.

Really? You're running around repeating known dog whistles, and now you want to argue that pointing out dog whistles are propaganda?

Nah, at this point, you've down exactly who you are

[–] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works -4 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Look, just because you haven't bothered to learn what a dog whistle is in this context doesn't mean it isn't the case

Trust me, when it comes down to chickens, the chickens always come first.

Why? Because they are vicious little buggers, and if you try to make them wait they will eat you.

"Oh, hello monkey, is that a treat for me in your hand? How lovely, nom nom nom. What? I took your finger with the lovely dried bug? So sorry. Oh, hello monkey, is that an open wound in your hand for me? Nomnomnom. What? I'm not supposed to devour the flesh from your bones? So sorry. Oh, hello monkey, is that a bone sticking out from where your finger used to be...

You get the idea.

So, I can say with authority that if the egg had come first, the chicken would have eaten it.

No, I said your comment should be removed because it's a common antisemitic dog whistle

 

The post was https://lemmy.ml/post/27600301 on !antitrust@lemmy.ml

When opening the link, it popped up something I didn't even get to see because it created crashed my browser.

I returned to the post and commented "Jesus, the pop-up on that site is brutal " that's it, that's the exact quote because I use an app that stores things from specific sources that are typed in

Annnnd banned

For being annoying.

Because the mod didn't like their link being criticised.

I ain't even mad, I'm just amazed to see a PTB in the wild like that.
