    What they call moderation is just muting posts so that you don’t see them.

    Thank you, my dear man! Registering there right now. EDIT: … maybe not “man”, wasn’t looking too close . “being”

    No thanks. I don’t want bigots hidden in a space I use, I want them absent.

    Yeah, see, there’s that issue of most people having disagreements on who’s a bigot, and also sometimes using such rules in bad faith. And since hiding what you don’t want to read is insufficient to you, you may be an example of the latter, possibly even unconsciously.

    So you’ll have to live with the fact that nobody is absent. One can’t change that anyway.

    It’s funny, IRL people I talk to in this tone are usually those actual bigots.

      “Man” or “Being”. Heaven forbid you actually acknowledge a woman…

        Ah, I’ve just jumped to the conclusion that since the conversation is about trans people, that we can exclude

            No, but it’s easier to use something more general instead of an array of words to refer to every letter of LGBTQNE (the last two being non-carbon and electronic)

            EDIT: Also it makes me nostalgic over “gentlebeing” from Star Wars EU

                I see no phobia here. But also I’m conscious of what’s called “hetero” being a great many things too.

                I just don’t want to be bothered with correct addressings and pronouns when it’s clear by default that we are all different
