My personal opinion is that for "edge cases" like cisgender, I should be the one who decides what "slurs" I see or don't see on the feed, rather than some shmuck twitter mod who watched a YouTube video or whatever.

Well, you have that choice on Lemmy. Even if a mod deletes a comment, you still get to see it in the Mod Log.

And this is how their^[implying X, Reddit etc.] empires fall.

I mean it's still not an edge case. It's just not.

Like, insert that "That's not how this works, that isn't how any of this works" meme here.

yes, that's why I put it in quotes. However given the diversity of culture and language there's still going to be slurs that the predominantly English speaking mods will not be aware of, so users should be able to set their own filters.
