This isn’t about you. Stop trying to make it so

You didn't bait me. I wasn't making this about me. But since you apparently are (because how else could this entire comment be interpreted), I'll reiterate: you abused your mod powers by banning me in retaliation for me using the normal process of reporting rule-breaking content just because you don't like having it pointed out that you broke your own rules.

The bait was at Nay. Nearly every one of your comments in that thread before I ever got involved was baiting them. From the very first:

No, but It beats communism any day of the week.

I don't know how that can be seen as anything other than bait, considering the context of the post was criticising the problems with capitalism. It's whataboutism at its finest. You follow that up with:

And how many years do you personally have living under a different socioeconomic system?

Which, again, is bait. Not only is it not relevant (again, we don't have to praise everything about communism to point out the ways capitalism is bad), it's also extremely patronising. By the way, my answer is either 6 or 0, depending on what you count. With that experience, I can tell you that "Actually Existing Socialism", as the tankies like to call it, fucking sucks. The censorship (not unlike that you yourself seem to be a fan of, through your actions) is extremely stifling, the rampant corruption is much worse than we see in developed western nations

Then, when given an answer, you extremely rudely respond:

Did I ask you?

This is asking someone to be rude to you back. They even tried to play nice in the follow-up, giving you an actual answer to the question. To which you again responded

did I ask you?

And you have the fucking gall to ban them for calling you "sweetie" after that? Oh, wait, no. You pat yourself on the back for just "warning" them over this. The nerve!

You do not get to pretend you had the high ground here. Not in the slightest.
