1. Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?

2. What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?

74 year community ban for ‘homophobia’

3. Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).

4. Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).

here’s the exchange that resulted in the ban:

5. Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

I’m gay, trans, and an anarchist. I thought the post title was misogynistic, objectifying, and not a good example something that should be in a ‘queer friendly’ space.

Not everyone is okay with sexual degradation humor, misogynistic comments, etc, even if it’s about people you disagree with. Pointing that out in this case got me called a homophobic tankie and banned within minutes of making the post.

    The ban was simple, you posted something disgustingly homophobic.

    I already hate you red fash. That was the final straw, notice how no one other tankie fuck received the same punishment you did?

      Looks like quite a few people here are having a problem seeing the homophobia in that comment. I could definitely use an explanation.

      “Cumrag” isn’t a great term. I’ve heard it from strangers when walking down the street in immodest clothing, from guys I don’t want to date, and online when dudes I disagree with find out I’m a chick. I definitely associate it with misogyny, so I see Diva trying to gently inform that people might find it offensive.

      I’m an anarchist, my post was pointing out the misogyny I saw in your post title, literally using a quote block with a paraphrased version of your own post title to make it more obvious.

        You are a tankie, hanging out in a tankie bar. Call yourself whatever the fuck you want but you hang out with genocide deniers, authoritarians, and red fash. You deserve zero respect if that’s your company.

        There was no misogyny. But your implication that it was certainly homophobic by conflating the subjects. Hence you and only you getting banned. Zero tolerance for that shit, you understand?

        Now go and share this on your Matrix room or whatever so the rest of you .ml fucks can come and brigade some more.

          This was shared in 0 matrix rooms as far as I know.

          If you’re going to call me a tankie just because you don’t like the servers I post in, maybe I should be calling you a nazi for posting in the comm nazi bar loaded with cryptofash posters eager to be free of ‘degenerates’, calling myself and others degenerate roaches that they’re eager to be rid of.

          Calling out a gay person posting a misogynistic thread title is not homophobia

            I’m calling you a tankie for being a member of a tankie instance.

            You weaponised claims of homophobia to try to silence criticism of China/Russia. And to make it worse, you tried to conflate being queer with an insult.

              as I said in another post here, I didn’t say you were being homophobic, that was your accusation.

              I did not conflate being queer with an insult.

              I was pointing out that your post title was misogynistic. Gay people can still be putting their internalized misogyny into the world, and I would hope a queer space would discourage that, rather than have it actively defended by moderation.

              Ironically it is you who is using claims of homophobia to silence another gay person criticizing your behavior.

                I didn’t say you said I was being homophobic.

                I said you were conflating the word cumrag with lgqbt+ peoples, which is certainly a homophobic act.

                If I simply wanted to silence the tankie fucks I wouldn’t have only banned you.

                  I wasn’t though. I was pointing out that using cumrag as an insult broadly was not in line with being a ‘queer friendly’ instance, as it is overtly misogynistic.

                  You seemed intent on misreading it so you could slap ‘homophobic’ on another gay person calling your shitty behavior out.

                  I didn’t say you said I was being homophobic.

                  You weaponised claims of homophobia to try to silence criticism of China/Russia.

                  Which is it then?
