What is the point of these forums if you're banned for using it?

From the modlog: admin Banned @Julianus reason: 3 week timeout for more constant bickering expires: in 21d

There are admins with clear political bias and they are using their powers to suppress opinions they don't like. This isn't a ban for violating rules... but simply replying to their posts. What gives?

I (Julianus) simply picked a server from lemmy.ml's own list when I tried to log in and saw I was banned. I don't know anything about those other accounts. In fact, they were banned before I could even read whatever they wrote.

Well you didn't miss much, they just flail around saying some racist stuff and try to get some air-time for their scat fetishes - not kink shaming or anything, but I wish they felt more comfortable sharing that sort of porn within their own circles.
