Help reading the mod log? (sh.itjust.works)

Does the Lemmy mod log no longer show users the comments that have been removed by mods? Another user and I were recently banned from !aboringdystopia@lemmy.world for the generic reason of being a “troll account”. The thread referenced by the mod log was about Zionist genocide so the bans make me instantly suspicious. However I don’t want to go full attack dog until I see the comments that were removed.

Can anybody help me figure out how to read my own comments that have been removed? The normal screen I go to shows me the contents of other comments that I have had removed by moderators, but this time it doesn’t.

Also to be clear: I am not here to argue about my ban, I’m mostly just confused. The moderator who banned me has personally disliked me for a long time because I tend to call out their lies, but they never came across to me as the petty ban type, which is what makes these bans in a thread about Zionism extra suspicious.

It's easiest to view the Modlog by user, here's your user's modlog: https://sh.itjust.works/modlog?page=1&actionType=All&userId=11914850

That's an impressively bad history you have. Maybe stop telling people to kill themselves and then you might not get banned all the time?

Your ban from !aboringdystopia@lemmy.world is not linked to a specific comment, but they probably saw your modlog and decided you weren't worth having on their community.

There is a story to that lol. Do you remember when the comics community was completely unmoderated for months, but there was a terrible and vicious troll that made the user base drop because they were making everyone miserable? There were months of complaining and nothing being done.

Then I decided to sacrifice my account and say the most offensive thing I could think of. Miraculously, literally one day later after months of problems, the community got a new moderator that banned him and me. The community is now healthy again and I’m perfectly happy to be the punching bag villain because that’s what it took.

I was honestly expecting a permaban from everything but that didn’t happen. The only permanent ban I got was from the blahaj instance which is full of such a patchwork of gender exclusionary communities that require me to pick a gender identity in order to participate. I’d rather just steer clear.
