I just got banned from linux@lemmy.ml, which seems to be the biggest Linux community out there.
For context, it was about the recent Vaxerski incident, where I shared my personal opinion about the whole gender stuff. I wasn’t even trying to be hurtful against anyone, just shared my 2 cents in an already ongoing conversation.
Sure, ine might not agree with my opinion, and I don’t agree with others, and this is totally normal. But at least we should be able to have sane and respectful conversations where no one is insulting each other, or anyone else… without having a mod intervening into the conversation
So to all the mods out there: Your personal opinion does not give you the right to delete comments and block users, just because their opinions don’t align with yours!

As soon as I saw it was about “the whole gender stuff” I knew it had to be some garbage bigoted take lol

Lmao. So OP is unwilling to show others the simple courtesy of respecting their gender identity then comes running here to whine because their bigoted hot take got them a three day ban from a community. 🙄

Regarding my account… I was previously on lemmy.world, (under the same username) but moved to programming.dev since world defederated from piracy@dbzer0, amd I didn’t want to have multiple accounts.
So yeah, it’s new in that manner, but I’m surely not a troll.

On par for people complaing about a ban.

The funniest part is that privileged people get pissy about being called by their title all the time, it does sometimes materialize in jokes, but that’s still punching up.
As a fun experiment I misgender bigots until they got mad about it. It doesn’t take long.

Thanks for the info.

As I said, this is my opinion, I didn’t impose my opinion onto others and i certainly don’t expect everyone to agree with me.
But I don’t think a perma-ban from the whole community is the right answer here.

Was it to do with neopronouns?
