Exactly.
Comment on Is there a formalized ban appeal process for the fediverse? Do I just direct message a mod?

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

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.
curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 3 weeks ago
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.

Thanks for the reply. I see I am going against the grain here, so apologies if this comes through as hard-headed, but I still don’t get the violation.
Was the problem that OP was talking in general about the importance of being able to give birth? It doesn’t seem to diss trans or sterile people, just mentions that it can be important. Or is OP saying it is important, and that’s the problem?

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

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