And apparently, also when you think that ‘They’ is a perfectly serviceable gender-neutral singular pronoun, but are willing to use other pronouns if asked to.
EDIT: Other removable offenses on Blahaj now include questioning mod/admin decisions and quoting the modlog as a reason why you’re leaving.
Right there. You tell a trans woman how to run her space. Thats entitlement.
… “This isn’t for me, so I’m going to leave, even though I understand and don’t denigrate the basic reasoning.”
“Stop trying to tell her how to run her instance! This is entitlement!”
Fucking what.
I specifically mentioned in that very point that you cut off, in case you forgot how to read, that Ada was not in that conversation or thread, nor did I expect her to be.
But you came into a space that isn’t for you, and told trans people how to handle a situation that doesn’t affect you.
Literally didn’t tell anyone how to handle the situation in 196. Gave no advice. Made no demands. Jesus Christ.
Your subsequent days-long crashout proves to me that Ada made the right choice.
I love that a crashout is when someone doesn’t roll over and commit to a struggle session when accused of being transphobic for not acknowledging dragons as real.
“Learn to take criticism or get off the net instance” yourself. My best wishes for your time away.
Fuck’s sake, you’ve taken “I don’t agree with this decision so I’m literally leaving, wish you the best” as some kind of demand for submission.
Tumblr behavior. Utterly deranged.
Initially I thought I’d miss Blahaj, but seeing these reactions from Blahaj commenters and defenders here? I feel more like I’ve dodged a bullet now.
You have fun with your tribalist games in which reality is secondary to whatever weird persecution narrative you want to peddle.
And try to fix up your reading comprehension.

Unless by ‘telling a trans woman how to run her space’ you actually meant ‘not telling a trans woman anything at all, nor saying anything even around said trans woman, nor talking about how to run the space, but expressing an intention to leave the instance in another community entirely’, in which case you need to fix your basic sentence construction instead.

Aw, bestie! That’s not how the Lemmy works. You made people uncomfortable, and they reported you for your content, either for what it invited or for what it was on its face. That’s how this works! You do what someone sees as damage to the community, you get reported, Ada sees your comment. If you were truly minsundatood that badly, maybe work on using nicer words. :)
persecution narrative
Oh wow. Okay, back up, this makes me think you misunderstand the situation entirely. Did you read the post? Genuinely think this summary might help:
- Ada: “Okay y’all we’re gonna do an innocent until proven guilty thing here because of our demographic makeup and community goals. Report and block trolling behavior rather than resorting to misgendering and harassment, OK? We want to keep things comfortable for all trans people and for us that never starts with initating the same attacks most of our community faces every day. If you can’t find it in you to engage with users without misgendering and abuse, we’d just prefer you report the user rather than engage. If you do do harrassment, even against a real troll, you will face mod action, mkay?”
- most of blahaj: “Makes sense, that lines up with a good portion of our user base’s preference too. We’d rather see trolls getting ignored, downvoted, and banned than for harrassment to be normalized here.”
- Me: “That totally makes sense here too.”
- You: “Wow fuck yall what a persecution narrative this is literally reason for me to leave.”
