*Your
Grail
Cool, thank you for the pronoun support and also I'm reporting you for saying My gender identity shouldn't exist. Your comment is simultaneously very inclusive and not at all accepting.
If being the only anti-biden community on Lemmy means misgendering trans people then maybe there shouldn't be an anti-Biden community. If somebody is going to host a community like that, it should be someone who can do so without transphobia.
The moderation actions weren't federated to aussie.zone, you can read the comments in the thread from this instance. https://aussie.zone/post/11840603
They do have different limits.
Even if it was a mistake, maybe Blahaj shouldn't have mods who shoot from the hip and end up banning trans people they accidentally misgendered. Maybe the position of moderator should entail some more responsibility to trans users. If it was a mistake, it was preventable.
When I join a new space, I usually closet about My pronouns and other aspects of My identity on a hard or soft basis until I've made a decision to come out of the closet. Misgendering Myself is a safety measure to prevent harassment and abuse. When I am open about My pronouns, there are certain people who will decide to grill Me about every little perceived inconsistency to try to "gotcha" up an excuse to call Me a fake trans person. I usually only gender Myself correctly once I've decided to accept the risk of running into that kind of person.
Aside from judging a space to see if it's safe, in some spaces it can help to introduce Myself closeted and then come out, rather than start out being honest about My identity. There's a lot of people on sites like Lemmy that will call a new user who uses neopronouns a troll. Only being honest about My identity after I've proven I'm no troll is safer.
I do believe in erasing the experiences of minorities. If I were living in Germany in 1939, I'd erase the experiences of the Jew living in My basement while talking to the Gestapo. I erase My own experiences all the time. I misgender Myself to stay in the closet to avoid violence. Never been out as goddessgender at work or school.
If what you are advocating is total exposure of all information having to do with minorities, you're talking about actions that will get people killed. That's why Republicans are trying to pass laws to require ID for Pornhub, you know. They want to know all about the lived experiences of gay and trans people by analysing our porn habits, so they can do violence against us. What you're speaking in favour of is genocide.
I am glad it was just a mistake, but it was a mistake that you prevented Me from fixing the easy way. I couldn't report the comment, couldn't reply. So I made this post, and had to put up with being grilled on My pronoun usage and told My identity is evil by various people. I didn't defend any oppressive systems, I outlined a strategy to just shut up for a few months until it's safe to act again without causing a genocide. I didn't break rule 2. But you did break rules 5 and 8. Shouting down leftism. No open discussion. I did everything I could to play by the rules and disagree with you politely. Maybe instead of making an exception for Me, it's time to actually enforce your community's rules by not being so ban-happy with everyone. What happened today was bound to happen eventually and it's going to keep happening as long as nobody's allowed to have an open discussion about the election on your community. Everyone who disagrees being banned is not an open discussion.
