Specifically a made up and false reason. None of what was banned in those screenshots were remotely homophobic. This particular mod is extremely ban happy and has resorted to using BS reasons to report those he doesn’t like.
I realize they’re allowed to ban people from their own communities, but shouldn’t their listed reasons at least be accurate?
But you have to remember here that there is no pre screening of mental and emotional acuity to be a moderate.
Nor are their behaviors held to account because most admins do the same.
A moderator acting out of personal dislike undermines the very purpose of a healthy online community: fostering open discussion, collaboration, and a sense of belonging
like hello LOL where have you been dude lol? I mean that’s how a lot of them are just from what I’ve seen I mean they don’t care about being fair dude. it’s I don’t know and my personal opinion if you can’t be level-headed about shit and you are letting your emotions kind of dictate how you run your online community then I think that you’re a little bit too involved and you’re a little bit too emotional thinking instead of being rational. like it’s just an online community dude you’re not God okay I mean I know you may feel like that for a second when you ban people and shit, but it’s just really fucking lame and it shows that you can’t handle conflict very well and afraid of Confrontation. so I mean really what kind of community is that even going to be I mean like there’s not going to be any discourse cuz you’re just going to ban whoever for whatever reason right? I mean a stupid over here on our instance we’re pretty level-headed. we don’t do that shit just don’t violate the terms of service or post anything illegal.

There may not be a lemmy rule against it, but damaging someone's reputation with false accusations is libel.

It’d be interesting to see this in the courts. Would lemm.ee stand as accused, facilitator, or witness?

Welll yes they should be.
