Okay you’re being a bigot. You know why? Because people aren’t demanding to be called “your highness”. They are just asking to be called with their preferred probouns. Putting neo pronouns aside, it’s not a heavy burden to be called he / she / it / they.
And this is the internet! The are no bodies, only usernames. Why do you care if a person claiming to be a girl demands to be called a she? Oh my fucking god,what a scandal! The oppression imposed upon you, a free citizen, demanding that you have to use a pronoun different than “he” on the internet! The world is doomed! 😱 /s
What you’re really asking for is the “right” to harass trans people (by misgendering them) because you don’t like them and abhor the idea of women having something extra down there. (it’s not like they’re plotting to force sex you, just leave them be, okay?) Not only that, you’re so obsessed with hating them that you went out of your way to post your biased opinion ON A LINUX FORUM.
You’re being a transphobic asshole, and the mods were perfectly right in banning you.
Just accept that there are different people in the world. If you have a problem with that, maybe it’s you who needs professional help.
CW: Trump, uspol
Trump separating families at the border. Children being put in cages. Americans waving the fucking nazi flag.
It’s one thing to read about genocide. Another thing is to see it with your own eyes, even on TV.
And if any of you fuckers tries to tell me that both “sides are the same” or that “democrats did the same” or something in that vein, they are obviously doing this in bad faith and they can go fuck themselves. 🖕🤬
The very nature of the fediverse makes fragmentation part of it. Since it’s not centralized, control is distributed to the different instance admins. It’s only natural that people with different opinions will want to split from each other, and that’s without taking into account the levels of toxicity allowed by different moderators.
Is an instance allowing racists to thrive in there? Of course it will be blocked by leftists, since banning is a concept that no longer applies.
Let me repeat for clarity: You CANNOT ban someone from the fediverse, you can ONLY defederate from them.
And don’t tell me it’s that much different from reddit, I’ve seen political subs denying access to people simply based on what other subreddits they’re subscribed to.
Would you rather have a single hierarchical “network” where an asshole dictator decides who is and who isn’t allowed to post? Of course not, otherwise you wouldn’t be here.
Federation implies defederating instances you’re not comfortable with.
And that’s perfectly fine, because safety comes first.
My freedom of association necessarily implies that I’m free NOT to associate with people I don’t like, and my insurance admin should be able to make sure I’m free from harassment by those same people.
Want to solve this issue? Solve human nature first.
Ah, that’s a meme that I miss from reddit. It was silly, innocent, and made lots of fun for link spelunkers.
I miss the old reddit. Oh, well, guess that’s why we’re here.
Browser. So far I haven’t found an app that is user friendly, allows me to switch accounts, and doesn’t log me out every 30 minutes.
Even then, you’re still a bigot. Dude, grow up and touch some grass.
