No you don't have to, there's nothing wrong with the post, I just want to make sure people understand that fact that people can want to be trans or want to be NB. There are a lot of gatekeeping people hiding in the shadows unfortunately who argue that wanting to identify a particular way is somehow appropriation.

I think this post is actually very good since it highlights why their reasoning is problematic and gatekeeping.

There was huge controversy where these policies led to sub mods protecting minor attracted persons who came in to disrupt their spaces

Ah yes, continuing the lie that blahaj.zone at somehow supports or encourages pedophilia.

*I'm trans btw

This doesn't preclude a person from being transphobic, and it certainly doesn't justify the lying and fabrication and accusations towards blahaj.zone admins of harboring pedophiles, because they chose to stand up against misgendering and ban people who misgender others or spew apologia.

I'm not the one who's accusing an instance admin of allowing or condoning pedophillia because they're salty they have to respect neopronoun users.

Programming socks make it all better.

There's nothing wrong with wearing feminine clothes for Halloween, or even just for the hell of it. Clothes are cloth and anyone can wear them, I'll never understand people who are so funny about some people wearing certain clothes or try to restrict others from wearing them for no good reason.
Just let people wear fem clothes if they want to.

Yeah seems like people always forget about transmascs for some reason.

This is disgusting...

Just so you guys know that's 113 pounds (51.23 kg) of mercury, he's not just a weakling, that is very heavy even for stronger people.

Poor frog... 😢

Blahaj.zone isn't run by the Devs of Lemmy, they could easily block both Lemmygrad and lemmy.ml if they wanted. They just choose not to for some reason.

Karma sucked ass on Reddit. Essentially people could ban you from participating because you pissed too many people off even though you didn't break any rules.

Karma count is an ass kissing metric, high karma shows that you kiss people's asses for upvotes, low or negative karma shows that people dislike what you say which is absolutely ok. People having different opinions vs going with the group is the difference between a healthy platform and an echo chamber.

By the way Trolls and malicious actors who that system is targeting should be dealt with directly. If someone's posting hateful transphobia instead of downvoting their acount they should just be BANNED from the community or the platform as a whole, keep bad people out of the community.
