Instance is midwest.social. Not a solitary clue who the admin was who did it.

A friend was wondering why they hadn’t seen my posts and figured I’d been banned from lemmy.world or just left in general. I went to his instance and saw that in the modlog.

Not a damn clue as to why. There are no post removals, no comment removals, no temp bans and I never got any messages from any of the admins about anything that I did. Just one day, they randomly banned me for racism without rhyme nor reason. I have literally nothing that I can point towards and say “This is the reason why” because they never bothered to do anything other than ban me.

I am many things. I am an asshole, I’m a vindictive bitch, I’m a petty prick, I’m often antagonistic, I’m also a whiny bitch. But racist?

Edit:

Well okay then

    It is the very title of the post in the 2nd link.

    The post title says he locked the post, not that he banned anyone.

    This one, however, advertises that it is welcoming as it desires to become larger.

    It’s welcoming, but not to everyone. “No bigotry, hate speech, No zionists, No fascists”. Doesn’t say it’s limited only to activity on their server.

    What you are missing is that additional people are being affected, beyond merely the instance admin and the people who wish to block that instance.

    Every admin and every instance has their own rules and their own standard for who can participate in their communities. This admin has chosen the proactive route, but those who get locked out have plenty of other places to go, and they can even successfully appeal their ban. That’s the benefit of the fediverse, and I think it’s perfectly acceptable to preemptively ban people from your community if they display the kind of behavior you find unacceptable. It’s your party, and you can uninvite whoever you want.

    I don’t have any problem with you sharing your take, but I haven’t seen anything here that I take issue with. You’re free to disagree but I like that server just fine.
