RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW

Have you been banned from blahaj lemmy yet?
mods there have historically gone overboard with bans. One person said "dude is a gender neutral word" in a completely different instance and blahaj mods banned them cuz "transphobic" lmfao
Check out the whole track record on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
they even had to block this topic because of how frequent it is.
So it's not out of the question they see this and think one is appropriating pride month
They didn't say "dude is a gender neutral word" they said "anyone who doesn't think dude is a gender neutral word needs to get over it".
Dude is gender neutral in the same way that chicos is gender neutral.
Haven't checked it yet and tbh don't even want to cuz if you would've seen the kind of comments on the same thing i posted on lemmyshitpost(i know, i'm still new to lemmy) even you wouldn't dare to post stuff like that again
And god the number of people that were just offended just by my username🤦
