      I was recently banned for being “transphobic” for telling people what far right people believe about trans people, in the third person because I’m not far right nor have I ever been.

      I’ve been pro-trans rights (AKA human rights) since I knew what the word “transgender” meant, which is going on twenty years or so now?

        Lemmy has a REALLY bad problem with people who dont actually read comments and process them. They skim read the post, see a few keywords and then argue the point that they want to argue regardless of what the original comment was.

            Yes, people got too used to the early days when the majority of reddit was still on reddit. Now that it’s turning more completely into front page 2.0, it’s pretty noticeable

            Ive noticed it a lot more on here.

            Like there was a thread about real world uses for “A.I” and I said that its perfect for traffic management which triggered someone who went on a huge rant about carcentric cities and how we need to have more public transport and cars arent the answer. Like ok, I dont disagree but thats not really related to the question at all.

          I was actually back and forth a bit with an admin among other folks, likely the one who nuked the thread and banned me.

          Nobody was being rude, and the last thing I said was agreeing with them.

        I’m banned from like 6 blahaj zone communities for one comment I made where me and two other users discussed the overlap of trans and gay.

              Ah okay. I get why Lemmy hides moderator actions, because some weirdos out there will harass and stalk a moderator IRL for banning them for spewing slurs everywhere and trying to post CSAM, but on the flip side it irritates me that I can’t avoid whatever communities that moderator who banned me moderates.

              Even with zero chip on my shoulder about the ban, it’s clear that we don’t have anywhere near the same definition of “transphobic” and I’d like to save us both the time of butting heads about it. Win win, if I can proactively avoid participating in a community they preside over.
