Banned from World News by a Mod but the Comment I was banned for was restored by an Admin (lemmy.world)

A WorldNews mod removed this comment and banned me from WorldNews, claimed in the modlog for 'trolling, islamophobia'. An admin then restored the comment, but the ban is apparently still in place.

Does this mod's summary judgement of this comment mean I'm forever banned from WorldNews?

EDIT: I realized you can filter by mods to find out who banned me. It was @Newsman, but I looked about a couple hours later and they're no longer mods in World News, but looks like I'm still banned. Oh well, at least they've been shown the door. That's progress.

Looks like there is one user who is the mod for a huge number of reddit knock-off communities on lemmy.world, and bans people for anything they deem to be islamophobic (in any way negative to Islam, Iran, etc). It will be interesting to see if the admins will take action.

That's the beauty of Lemmy - there's 20 other world news communities, and most of them have different mods!
