Five days ago, drag was banned from !politicalmemes@lemmy.world for using neopronouns. A comment explaining drag's pronouns, and a comment saying "drag" isn't a nickname, were removed with the reason "trolling". Drag understands why someone would think that using different pronouns than most people is trolling - transphobia. However, drag is confused how on earth not liking a nickname is a violation of any rules anywhere.
Context of the removed comments:
Drag would like to pre-empt any further accusations of trolling by asking a question: If drag were a right wing troll, and you chose to freely accept drag's pronouns, wouldn't that completely neuter the trolling attempt? Trolling is about trying to make others upset. You don't have to get upset when someone uses unusual pronouns. If you aren't transphobic, then it's impossible to troll you that way. And drag promises: drag wants you to not be transphobic. Drag is not trying to upset anyone. If you do what drag wants you to do, then you get what you want too. This is a non-issue, there's only a problem if you want there to be.
EDIT: DRAG DID NOT TELL ANYBODY TO USE DRAG'S PREFERRED PRONOUNS.
Their comments legitimately could be removed from the communities for all I know, just like their politics comments (might even have been in that thread)
I scrolled a few days back, saw them speaking like a normal person in multiple comments out of quotes, and my bullshit detectors went off
That they went on to, almost a week later, post about it being transphobic that they were banned and seem to be incapable of understanding WHY they're not being believed only increases my certainty
Here's a comment where drag uses an "I" pronoun. It's a quote from Doctor Who. Are you sure the comment you read wasn't another quote from a TV show?
