This is all easy to say for non-trans folk who aren't being targeted for the next genocide. If we allow users like this to hide behind crypto-fascist rhetoric, vulnerable minority communities will be overwhelmed and pushed out by the sheer volume of hatred.
I am completely unfamiliar with federation as a concept so there may not be a way to effectively moderate an entire instance consisting of several communities, but if there is a way to protect vulnerable communities without de-federaring, it needs to be done.
WHY are vulnerable people joining a decentralized system? Isnt this why you want a closed, not for public eyes community?
Also genocide? What? Acceptance is extremely high and on the up thanks to a plethora of institutions working HARD to improve the image of trans people. You dismiss all their hard work by calling trans people ripe for genocide.
You have some extreme views and I recommend you touch some grass, not even ironically. Nobody is planning a genocide on trans people.
For the same reason wheelchair users leave the house after dark
Anyway, "public" doesn't mean "hate speech friendly."
Transgender people are not disabled. They know exactly what their personal shortcomings are.
There are a plethora of fediverses that are locked down tight and remove everything that would even mildly trigger people.
Im all for banning nazis and trolls but I think its healthy to keep discussions.
I know this fediverse will defederate and I explained in another comment that im completely fine with it. If people dont want to hear centrist opinions thats up to them. Not me.
I personally use the block button if I feel I dont want to see someones opinion and I encourage everyone to do the same with me they dont want to see my comments.
Everyone always thinks allowing a bunch of opinions will make everything dissolve in a right wing nightmarish shithole. You can still set boundaries which the EH admins did.
And lets not forget that the admins of EH always were upfront and honest they would ban nazis or extreme views. This has been confirmed multiple times. Point it out to them and they will ban them.
Care to elaborate on that point?
No person is perfect, its important to know what triggers you. They can manage fine deciding what content they dont want to see.
If they cant they should find a closed server run by admins that protect them from literally everything. Reddit for example.
If you think Reddit protects trans people... you really have no idea.
It's sounded like you were implying something a lot worse.
If I wasnt clear I have nothing against the trans community.
Only dislike I have is the memes because I cant relate to them. 😝
But you wont find me entering their safe spaces to start arguing on what is or isnt genocide, im only doing that here because its a public space and I didnt find it reasonable to be set apart as "neonazi" or genocide instigator for joining a centrist community with a bunch of weirdos.
I just think edgy memes can be funny
