I neither know you nor your content, but let's presume that what you posted was percieved as an utter garbage position to have. Yeah, that's what downvotes are for.
But a ban? Those aren't for people whos opinions you disagree with. Those are for cleaning up after people who intentionally tris to stir up something.
That's exactly my point, but it looks like my comment was considered "transphobic" which goes against the CoD... so that's reasonable.
What's not reasonable is the interpretation of "transphobic", which leaves a lot of room for.
Most of the time transphobic comments are pretty clear cut including yours.
Well, if it's against the rules, then it might justify a ban. I'm not going to argue against rules in general, and interpretations thereof.
