I don’t think I really need to explain much, their admins are transphobic. stalin-smokin

Snowe, an admin, complained about a transgender person being offended over being misgendered. Ategon made an apology post but keeps snowe on, no public apologies from snowe to the transgender people affected.

note: conversation about Ategon’s use of the word triggered edited out, might be misunderstanding, need clarified

      I’m sorry but no, I’m not going back into that thread. it was painful to read the first time and I’m not wading back into it. this also misses the point of what I said.

        fair, I can check it over when im off work to see what I missed. We are attempting to improve things about how we deal with the actions and admin conduct in the future and im taking feedback here as well as in the other threads into account to help improve how we handle things in the future to refine the current stance on how we deal with them (including ways we deal with them Ive said in the past in this thread + some other areas, to look at and see if that can be improved which its been pointed out it can)

          I’m not sure if this is what she’s referring to, but from here

          this post in particular it pissed me off specifically because it was up for like 12 hours, and when it was removed, the reason this comment was removed seemed like it was dancing around what the actual problem with the comment was:

          reason: please dont insigate conflict between instances here

          Is the problem that it’s instigating a conflict or that it is itself an expression rooted in transphobia which is provoking a response from users if it’s not addressed by mods? Because as I see it this is actually a violation of user rules of both blahaj + programming.dev but because the target is acceptable (those hexbear tankies) it gets a blind eye until we make it an issue.

            The comment there broke two rules, just chose one for the reason. Other one (transphobia) was more relevant to the comment itself and probably should have done that in the box, just been mostly trying to deal with things quick

            Went through the reports including that one mostly at the same time when I got free time to do so which is why it took a bit
