Mods please tell me if I should post this somewhere else.

This dude is a mod at !globalnews@lemmy.zip (even though they are not listed there as mod) and !apple@lemmy.zip (same thing, they aren’t a mod there either)

My modlog does say I was banned by this person, and no reason is stated. This person is ignoring my DM / has blocked me? I genuinely don’t remember even posting there as they are relatively small communities, and I’m not subscribed to them. I saw one post on global news today in my All feed and tried to upvote it, and that’s how I discovered.

Now I’m seeing in this persons post history that they are some kind of lemmy.zip admin of some instance possibly.

So I’m seeing to know if this person is almighty as an instance admin, and can just ban people in any community on that instance or if this could be some kind of automod mistake.

Thanks

E: @mods, I’ve got all the info I needed, feel free to lock/remove

    I was referring to the fact that hypothetically one lemmy.world admin could essentially make people disappear.

    Which is what ICE is for.

    Dumbest and most tone deaf take you could possibly have.

    An admin banning you from their platform is nothing remotely close to people being snatched off the street and put into Alligator Auschwitz or sent to a foreign prison.

    Unlike the people actually being persecuted, you can just go create another account so you don’t have to cry about it.

    Also, don’t take this as me defending the admin, it’s a stupid decision. But if this is your response, maybe the admin made an informed decision (one that I don’t care to investigate, given the galaxy brain take here).
