The power tripping admins at lemmy.blahaj.zone decided to ban me from 196 for zero reason. Citing “Troll” as the one they gave. I understand blahaj has had issues with power-tripping at the admin level in the past over stupid neopronoun debates regarding actual trolls pretending to be fake genders but this is a new low even for them.

    Announcing that you intend to misgender people is a pretty good reason for us to ban you given the nature of our instance. Notice how at the end of your comment you make it clear you will call someone a “dude” whether they like to be called one or not.

    Edit: Banned you from piefed as well so can’t see your replies

    It’s always good to consider your audience, I guess is my take. So for instance, since my development team at work ia comprised of both men and women, I don’t used the term “boyscout changes” and instead just “scout changes.” But also, I’m not gonna nitpick and get lost in nuance. For instance, the exclamation of “DUDE!” has no gender connotations to me. And if it offends someone… get over it dude.

    Notice how at the end you say people should simply get over you calling them a dude while calling them a dude again, specifically after they’ve expressed they would rather you didn’t.

    Edit: oh. you’re a troll. well then

      Always is the case with transphobes.

      You know this platform has threaded comments, you could just add a comment, instead of 15 edits to repeatedly reshape your argument. And why are you banning me, yet coming back with baited breath to see if I’ve responded? How did you even get this job?

      Notice I did not say that. I said that if someone finds an exclamation of the word offensive they should get over it, which I stand by. I did not say whether I would respect their wishes if they explicitly asked me to stop. You’re just assuming I wouldn’t.

      EDIT: this is a hypothetical outrage, I demand to be hypothetically reinstated to piefed
