    You provided one screenshot of comments, no context on what your stance was, and said you were banned without providing that info either. You didn’t even state why you thought it was unfair, just said “being able to read Wikipedia.”

    The fact that I already had to dig for the ban itself doesn’t help the cause on being able to make a judgment.

    FTR: I agree that there’s systemic bias against Islamic contributions to society. I was taught about the golden age Islamic science/math achievements in my high school education but I know that’s not universal. Hell, I thought you were stating the Wikipedia page as spoken gospel.

    Assuming hostility when I constructed my response on the information provided is unnecessary.

      You can read the screenshots of the comments which were removed they contain no hostility. Only facts. Yet they were removed as misinformation.

      The link to the post is in my post. Little digging is needed. lemmy.world/post/53701678/26577239

      You defend the moderators decision without any knowledge of the situation and tell me I should not complain about receiving a one day ban without acknowledging the ban is unjustified nor the comments will not be reinstated

        Bait Provoked Reaction =/= YDI.

        BPR = mod overreacted in a heated situation. If the comments were genuinely hostile then it’d be a rule break and a different post entirely.

        You have several comments on that same post that still remain up. There are also other removed comments in that same thread in response to you. I’m not sure what else you’re asking for here; you’re free to dislike my opinion, but it remains on the same grounds.

          It is a comment making a claim about what a Wikipedia and Google page says. Not bait or a heated discussion. The made up unsourced misinformation from the other poster is all still up but my factually correct claim about what Google and Wikipedia say has been deleted.

          You are quick to call my comment bait. Then tell me I should not throw a tantrum. And now you then walk it back as if you did not do that.

            Oh for chrissakes:

            From the rules bar:

            Some acronyms you might see.

            • PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
            • YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
            • YDM new - You Deserved More: The commenter thinks you got off too lightly.
            • BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
            • CLM - Clueless Mod: The mod probably just doesn’t understand how their software works.

              Does that mean I baited the mod? I cannot see how my comment is in any way provoking it is quoting what Wikipedia and Google say.

                No! There’s just no other fitting acronym. That was my entire point. “Breathe” was also intended to encourage you to remember that one mod’s decision is not reflective of you and that your time is worth more than that stress, in a positive way.
