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.
All posts should follow this basic structure:
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.
Relevant comms
Edit: I also just got banned for apparently being a troll. Me. Not the person they believe to be a dragon though.
PTB. This has very much soured me on Blahaj Zone, unfortunately. Not a big loss for them, since I only occasionally posted there, but very saddening to me.
goes to a trans meta sub about rule enforcement, breaks said rule immediately, gets banned. seems about right? like do you want people to enforce rules or not? I though this sub was about people who are doing whatever they want regardless of the rules, not for enforcing said rules.
Most people would not have taken "Dragons aren't real" to be against the rules, but here we are, apparently.
Lol this dingus is going to effectively defederate blaja by getting everyone banned
come on blahaj, yall are better than this.
Dragonfucker has multiple times said that if you're feeling suicidal, then you should instead get a gun and start shooting Trump supporters.
If you're planning on killing yourself, go buy a gun and take a red hat with you. Drag is serious. Get out if you can. Move to another country. But if you're actually hopeless, and there's nothing anyone can say to dissuade you... Then make it count.

I thought originally that this was a big non-issue and only relevant because of the bans. This user is, it turns out, actively endangering trans people's lives by what they like to post on Lemmy. The people who are getting suckered into supporting them in their whole shtick, thinking they're modeling what it means to be an ally to a fellow trans person, need to wise the fuck up.
Inb4 "as a non-trans person you don't have the right to say that." I've talked with more than a few suicidal people during some variety of crisis. If you support the user that creates that type of posting, because the user in question is using pronouns, wake the fuck up.
When some users’ sexual identities are as dragons, “dragons aren’t real” is a lot like “all lives matter”: on the surface, a statement of fact so obvious and controversial that it doesn’t bear saying, except for the subtext, which is an attack.
Ey. I wanna be a dragon too at times. If someone feels like being one full time, then as long as they don't commit crimes, let them.
Pioneers come in all shapes and sizes, for better or for worse.
I'm still not sure if drag is a troll. They're definitely attention seeking though.
