Hey all… I don’t even know if this is the right community. But figured I’d ask here and worst case no one gives a response.
Anyway, two of my comments were deleted and I was banned from a community:
Banned
@StaySquared from the community Lefty [email protected] reason: reactionary
The post was about how there’s no such thing was unskilled work. I commented that, “sex work” is an unskilled job. And my second comment was that it was the first thing that came to mind, that a clown creating animal-shaped balloons are more skilled than a sex worker.
I don’t understand how this is reactionary? Or how it’s defined in this community but apparently it’s bad enough to get banned for it. I wish the mod(s) would give a clear explanation, otherwise I’m going to continue breaking rules aimlessly (without realizing I’m breaking the rules).
Definition of reactionary: opposing political or social liberalization or reform.
I’m not opposing sex work. I’m defining sex work as an unskilled talent/job. If a man or woman wants to be a sex worker, good for them. I’m not offended or negatively impacted by sex workers.
So I guess the question is, how do I contact the mods or a mod of that community so they may get my defense before outright perma-banning me from the community?
In trying to understand “the rules”, you are attempting to understand human nature. In the fediverse there are no “rules”, there isn’t a governing body, instance owners and moderators essentially have “root” permissions.
Some use those for the greater good, some don’t. Some react in ways that are unexpected and unfamiliar.
In other words, be kind to your community and find a place where you can enjoy yourself. Don’t fret about the things that you cannot control.
If you absolutely need an answer, set up your own instance and be your own boss.
In the meantime, have fun.
Thanks for the response. I believe I have a better understanding now after your explanation. I will try to do better.
Thanks again for your input.
