Note to self: never comment on blahaj
Comment on Is there a formalized ban appeal process for the fediverse? Do I just direct message a mod?
Triumph@fedia.io 4 months agoYeah, blahaj, don't bother. There's an elevated amount of odd positions that are popular there, and don't you dare question them.

You could just not be shitty and it wouldn’t be a problem to post on blahaj at all.

Or I could be perceived as shitty even if I don't intend to, and get blasted...

Was OP being shitty with their comment?
I guess birthing is a hot topic or maybe even a dog whistle in the anti-trans community. Just from OP’s deleted comments, I’d say they weren’t hating.

Yes. Blahaj is not a place to debate whether trans women are real women.

Was OP being shitty with their comment?
Yes.
Whether it was intentional or not. I mentioned elsewhere that there are cis folks who can’t have children. So that comment was shitty to a wider group than just trans folks. Its also pretty common terf stuff.
It also broke the rules for both the instance and the community.

Exactly.

You can misgender someone there without intending to and be banned for it. Having a nuanced opinion isn’t going to go over well over there.
My Lemmy account was banned because I use dude as a non-gender term, according to the holy verses then in my attempts to assert I wasn’t applying genitals or identity to anyone I was banned.
