You Should Know mod crashing out and banning people for speaking up against transphobia
[email protected] refusing to properly moderate bigotry and banning people for speaking up about it. this is unfair because why should bigots get let off easy while people trying to advocate for positive change get shit on? it's totally backwards

PTB in my opinion, transphobia sucks.
Btw hi vanta, nice to see ya here. Thanks for the good work on Mastodon :3
Hi, I just found some context you deliberately left out, since it was directly above the modlog comment you included, less than a minute later. Yikes.
dude just has those vibes
Domestic abuse is not something to be taken so lightly that you can throw it into an internet argument and dismiss the consequences of your own actions with "dude just has those vibes". Show some fucking respect.
The mod was clear that a first time ‘issue with phrasing’ is not a reason to either report or attack the user.
You doubled down and got a temp ban for violating sub rules.
YDI
They made a fair request to encourage allyship in the community and you attacked them personally over it. I flinched at that comment and I wasn’t even your target. YDI this time but you can do better! ❤️🏳️⚧️
The mod is not incorrect. Some people simply don't think or know about trans people. It's not right, but it doesn't necessarily mean they're malicious, so affording them some degree of grace is probably the best route to take.
Also your last comment in the screenshot is ridiculous because, like. What does yuri have to do with anything? Anything can happen in animanga, it shouldn't impact whether queer people are valid.
here's the fuller context of that conversation, yuri was discussed further up the comment chain
I agree with the mod. Someone who trips up and corrects themselves isn't a bigot, they just made a mistake and tried to fix it.
"allies" when you try to have a conversation about the transphobic things they say
Being assholes to people isn't how you make friends.
Oh noes, trans kids aren't even killing themselves as much as they used to! What kind of society have we become!
Nobody is forcing an "agenda" on your kid dickbag. Dysphoria is a medical condition. Doctors carry out a treatment with the consent of the parent and assent of the child, after a long period of psychiatric care in which the child is diagnosed. Fuck off with your "Won't someone think of the kids!" bullshit.
Thank you for some actual sane words.

Looks like someone spilled a little too much eugenics in their transphobia to remain comprehensible
That's like saying they spilled tomato juice in their tomato sauce. It's all the same ingredient at different concentrations.
At the end of the day it's all fascism.
