Banned for asking a clarifying question?

@notwesker@lemmy.sdf.org aka @FiniteBanjo@feddit.online banned me for a whole week from Mod Abuse Hotline for asking a clarifying question about the verbiage OP was using.

I was very clear that I was so sorry for what happened to OP, but didn't understand what I perceive to be a double-negative that they were using. I even clarified that I wasn't victim blaming or having a threatening aura.

What does the mod do? They ban me for a week, but not even for an actual rule violation. They used a very stale and unfunny meme!

I've never used this com before, so I'm not familiar with your acronyms. So, I guess AITA?

EDIT: 1 business week, not a whole week

This mod is a troll. The whole instance is also trolling like the news community ban people for posting an image in the comments or even an abbreviation

As moderators can you just make other people moderators of a comm without their input? Like what happened to u/spez on reddit?

Also, my condolences. I hope you recover soon

let’s be real, that’s basically victim blaming.

anyway PTB because i have an unrelated outstanding beef with the mod team.

The rules are right there in the sidebar- this is an obvious rule 1 violation. BPR

There are technically NO rules in the sidebar, but I thought I was familiar with them enough from observation. Apparently not.

Whoops I thought the comm you got banned from was c/news. ISSTHTY
