Today I was banned from an online community that was very precious to me.
I have never been banned from anything before.
The harsh judgements that were directed at me were very hard to hear. I was shocked that a group of mods could hold such judgements in silence for so long. Then ban me without warning.
I must be a shit person.
I was accused of being a liberal and many other things. I only learnt of these things after I was banned. I have no access to the data, the data was deleted. No obervations were made, no shared understanding built. Just ideas of 'we are right' you are wrong - learn, be nice.
It would be easy for me to throw judgements back, and I did throw some back in private as I expressed some of my outrage.
I must be a shit person.
Or a stupid person.
Or a naive person.
or just another traumatised person.
see you in the next one.
