There’s no removed comments. I looked through my profile cause like sometimes I just be saying shit so I was okay maybe. But I can’t find any comments on that community. Just the old 196.
Idk if this is where to post this but I just wanted to rant. It’s my first time ever being banned so it felt ouch.
It’s not hate, it’s just not enjoying when a mod team decides to lock a community and force the members to move to another instance without even asking them first.
And the numbers speak for themselves: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=196&order=active_month
So what about all the people who were banned from blahaj back in december for dissent?
What 196 are they supposed to use?
Literally the biggest poster on 196 was banned and was forced to move over to .world despite them saying they are ok with Neopronouns. And everyone just called them a TERF instead of listening to them.
From my perspective that is not really an inclusive community concerned with protecting LGBTQ people, it’s blatant suppression of dissent.
Most people who were banned for “Gatekeeping” then and since then were really just banned because the admins didn’t like them despite them dispite not breaking rules.
You keep posting numbers, but you then ignore the dedicated base for the world community that is not going away.
No one was banned for dissent. People were banned for gatekeeping, misgendering and repeatedly and/or deliberately misgendering folk.
The rule is don’t misgender and gatekeep other folks and block or ignore them if you can’t deal with their identity or pronouns. The modlog is right there. If you can find a single instance of someone getting banned without breaking that or another rule, I want to know about it
So nobody was banned for dissent, but you will unban people who were banned for Gatekeeping because they weren’t actually Gatekeeping?
So if they weren’t banned for dissent or Gatekeeping, what was the reason?
I let them know, but this is really inconsistent policy
The only people who were banned were gatekeeping other folks identities. If you find an example of someone that was banned who didn’t do that, I will unban them.
If you find that inconsistent or confusing, I’m not sure what to tell you…
the biggest poster on 196 was banned for saying “i respect neopronouns BUT your policy of not allowing harassment for neopronouns isn’t for me and so i am preemptively leaving” while screaming stuff about how dragons aren’t real instead of just blocking and reporting offensive users as the mods explicitly asked.
to clarify. it’s a bit worse than you express. :)
You seem to know a lot about the whole story for a 20 days old account.
The two people who posted there in the last 24 hours?

They should open a thread here documenting Why their ban was a power trip.
Two possible outcomes
If there was already such a post, feel free to link to it, sorry if I don’t remember, it’s been a while to be honest
I have to uae burners because I don’t want my main account banned from blahaj from them lurking here
I’ve talked with them and why they post there every day deapite the other communities existing, and that’s what they said.
From what I can tell that whole community is there because of the christmas ban wave, most of them are trans people who said they never gatekept and respect Neopronouns.
They also said you specifically lurk these threads and resort to personal attacks against people who crtique blahaj, like pointing at account age instead of engaging in good faith with the people who got banned from blahaj admin abuse.
You still haven’t told me who was that main poster who was banned.
Not sure who is the one not engaging in good faith in this conversation.
After asking if I could share they said they don’t want their main account getting banned from blahaj in retaliation.
I’m sorry
If someone back then was banned for gatekeeping or misgendering and won’t do that anymore, not only will they not be banned in “retaliation”, their banned account will be unbanned. All they need to do is reach out to me
If someone back then was banned for gatekeeping and misgendering, but didn’t do those things, not only will they not be banned in “retaliation”, their banned account will be unbanned. All they need to do is reach out to me.
If someone back then was banned for gatekeeping and misgendering and they don’t reach out to me, I still I won’t ban their new account if I become aware of it, because the point of all of this is to make it clear that gatekeeping and misgendering are not on. If they’re not doing that on their second account, their second account won’t get banned, because the first ban achieved its purpose.
tl;dr - Whoever they are, if they’re not gatekeeping and misgendering folk, they’ll be fine.
