I think it's more like .... "why are you excluding us?" ... "you should be like us" ... "no wait, I think you need to be like us" .... "no wait, you HAVE TO be like us" ... "you will be forced to be like us"
.... "also .... why do you hate us?"

Honestly if this gets all the people who have problems respecting "weird" pronouns/gender identities to leave for .world it'll probably be a net positive for 196 and blahaj.zone as a whole.
I have problems with it... understanding it at least, but I have zero problems respecting it. I think that might be the key right there.
I'm thinking, do you think the mods' move had anything to do with this person's trolling?
Thats what kicked it off yes. See this post https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/27502118

I knew Blahaj was never ‘for’ me, but I always felt comfortable here. Guess that’s over. Ada and the admins have the right to cultivate the community they want to see on Blahaj, and I wish them the best of luck going forward.
I’m going to miss 196 and Femcelmemes, but… well, Blahaj isn’t for me, since I don’t acknowledge ‘dragonfucker’ as a gender.
Mod of 196 responds:
deleted by creator (It said something about planning to move to .world because blahaj bad)
This is then followed by an overwhelming opposition to the idea of moving to .world. Saying that this is not an option and if at all needs to involve a poll of the community of sorts.
The mod (A_Very_Big_Fan@lemmy.world) then deletes all his comments about moving to .world.
Fast forward to now, where they quickly lock the whole community and attempt a coup.
Also this wonderful quote from that same mod in this thread:
By “asap” I didn’t mean any minute now. :p Rest assured we wouldn’t make such a big change without at least telling you guys outside of a comment on a random post. And I agree a poll would be a good idea.
Smug bastards
What's going on?
Ah, so it's time for the number incrementing to start I guess. Why can't people just chill the fuck out
It doesn't even have to increment, you are currently in the new community, the old one is locked
Oh neato I should post some stuff then
