1. Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
https://quokk.au/u/Deceptichum
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.
Ok y’all need to stop with the rage bait comments or I’m locking the thread. Discuss the mod actions only please
PTB.
Entirely unsurprising for that mod in particular, they’ve equated communists to Nazis and said “tankie fucks deserve to get their heads bashed in.” Extremely aggressive 100% of the time whenever they encounter a Marxist, or even like in the OP an anarchist that happens to disagree with them.
I would argue it’s because you’re on lemmy.ml, and people who are obsessed with stuff like this think it really means something instead of being one of the more popular instances.
I’m a Marxist-Leninist, I say that openly. The target of the OP calls us “authies” and “tankies,” and seems to have an on-site hostility mindset when it comes to Marxists.
Stop flatting him.

I mean, the guy is very vocal about virulently hating “tankies” and has horseshoe theory brain worms, which means that you’re a (“red”) fascist, which gives him license to boot you for just existing.
Hahaha ML chuds don’t boot people for existing?
Not really, no
Yes really, yes
Nope. I know you really want it to be true for rhetorical reasons, but if you actually go and look it just isn’t
I feel like the mod was looking for an excuse here. I am not sure this is misogynistic per se, but definitely using a slur for “bottoms” (of any gender) to malign your ideological enemies is problematic and probably reinforcing patriarchy and toxic masculinity.
On the other hand people in here going all “of course I’m not surprised they’re sexist, since they’re anti-ML” is some weak kick-them-during-the-pile-on shit given how there’s hordes of patriarchy-lovingly homophobic Marxists (in fact I’d argue that’s most of them, comparatively)
hordes of patriarchy-lovingly homophobic Marxists
sadly I am familiar with the trope, mostly from other spaces than here though. plenty of ‘old guard’ Marxist parties irl do suck in that exact way for example.
that is why I don’t have much tolerance for ‘patriots’ of any affiliation and call shit out when I see it.
What is misogynistic about the term cumrag and what do queer people have to do with that?
Still, the ban is a bit much.
PTB / BPR.
I personally don’t see the misogyny either. But maybe that’s just because I need it explained to me? At this point it seems like PTB, because the mod went from zero to permaban with no discussion over the point Diva was making.
https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=cumrag+
a rag or cloth used to wipe up excess ejaculation; a woman who enjoys being ejaculated upon; extremely easy woman; notoriously loose
#1) My girlfriend knows she’s just a cumrag and she’s cool with it.
#2) My cumrag gives me money so’s I stay home at night.
#3) I had to strangle that cumrag… she snorted all my meth.
Lol, I love a good pearl clutch-off. ESH, but more PTB due to the ban.
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?
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 (that’s what liberals call good leftist)
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
commnazi 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 said you were conflating the word cumrag with lgqbt+ peoples
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?
Now go and share this on your Matrix room or whatever so the rest of you .ml fucks can come and brigade some more.
If that’s a real thing, nobody’s invited me to it 😞
