Misandry is a huge problem in the space.
It's why I couldn't stand r/TwoXChromosomes anymore.
The amount of people saying we should "kill all men" without being banned is insane, if someone typed the opposite they would instantly get dogpiled and removed.
The blahaj admins have a record of supporting trolls and hateful people, just as long as they use the "right" language.
I feel like the whole supporting trolls thing is overblown.
They said that you should still use someone's pronouns, even if they are trolling, because it sets the precedent that its okay to ignore someone's pronoun preference.
Unless there is more that I missed.
This account was banned on the day they posted the announcement because I had the gall to say that I would not respect the users who used Neopronouns as a joke to invalidate real gender identities. (Dragonfucker and their friends who also showed up to do this)
Ada insta banned me and all the dissenters from the instance, then she stalked some of us on other instances and messeged their admins to get us banned from those if we posted about what happened.
She banned enough users that it affected the 196 community , and the flood of messages from their users who couldn't access 196 anymore is what caused moss to move it to .world in protest.
They're hoping we all just forget and go away. But that place felt like my home after I left reddit, and now I see it's a malicious cess pool of people who want to hurt others like they were hurt, and now I'm a target, I'm an acceptable "other" to hate for dopamine.
