Let me preface this by saying that I disagree with your viewpoint in its entirety, and that I am not an admin nor an instance moderator on Kbin.

Here's the thing. If your intention is to come into Kbin, or Lemmy, or any other space here, and start spouting your viewpoint anywhere and everywhere - for example, in Pro-Trans spaces, or in spaces that have nothing to do with gender, you can expect some heavy pushback, including (likely) removal from those spaces. If your intention is to come in here and find or create a community that is conducive to posting about your viewpoint, you probably won't really have much trouble.

You sound like someone who is looking to make trouble, though, which is the only reason I can see for you to have posted this in this particular manner. If that's your intention, I think I can safely say, on behalf of the Lemmy / Kbin community, fuck right off. There's plenty of Lemmy instances that you can join that won't kick you out for this viewpoint, so probably go find one of those.

"I'm not looking for a fight, but I am going to say this thing that invalidates the reality of an entire class of people."

No. That's not an "acceptable viewpoint". Tolerance of the intolerant is intolerable.

But that said, if you spend most of your time here talking about normal topics and stay off the anti-trans bullshit, you won't be banned.

Afaik, it isn't expressly forbidden. But you aren't going to have much luck spouting that kind of inaccurate view. I mean, I'm having trouble not poking at the egregiously misused words in there, and I'm fairly chill about letting people figure things out on their own.

So, I don't think you'll find the viewpoint tolerated by fellow users, regardless of what any official stance is

There's a fine line between "free speech" and "hate speech". Doing hate speech is not free speech. In my experience, it's usually americans who don't understand this.

1. Before joining an instance you can go to their /terms page and see if they will tolerate you because you're just making stuff up and your ignorance will hurt and endanger people. Most KBIN and Lemmy servers will, fortunately, not willingly host you because of this.
2. I won't tolerate you, so don't join my instance. So, 1 down.

Is this an acceptable viewpoint

No. Go away.

If that kind of free speech is allowed, I absolutely pray that I'm also allowed to mock you incessantly for it. Conservatives check in like "Hey am I allowed to be intolerant here? I just wanna be sure you won't ban me for spouting hate."

People's existence is not the subject of debate. Bugger off, troll.

you can spout incorrect shit, but you'll probably be banned. Freedom of speech and freedom of association go hand in hand, and admins here will deplatform you much the same way a KKK member at a comedy club will be shown the door.

Freedom of speech isn't freedom from consequences. And your right to say what you want doesn't mean people will want to listen to it, nor that they shouldn't express their disapproval by whatever means they wish.

Try it and find out. If you get banned, start your own instance. People will be free to join you, ignore you, and/or defederate you as they see fit.

I guess time will tell, but I'd question why you need to assert this? What difference does it make whether people want to consider their gender fluid or not?

You say kbin as if it's a unitary thing, but that's not quite right. Between Lemmy and Kbin, there's a whole slew of instances being ran. Go find you one that will take you and join there. If you get banned, go find another one. If you run out, start your own.

This applies to literally any viewpoint or opinion. All the tankies, for example, hang out over at lemmygrad.ml

Good thing you don't determine what's reality and what isn't with your personal assertions then, as you're not very good at it.

On whether you'll be banned, hopefully. Hate speech is not protected speech.

Well, that depends on how your doing it. If you're normal about it, I think it would be fine. If you go looking for arguments and make it personal and non-civil it doesn't matter which views you have, you will get banned from at least some magazines.

Theoretically there's "no hate speech" in the rules, but I haven't seen anyone getting banned for that. You'd need to find out yourself what's their definition of this word.

Make a profile here if you want total free speech, im not knocking kbin because i think its a cool place but if free speech is your thing exploding heads definitely has the best policies for free speech and you’ll still be able to view kbin and others without fear of being banned https://exploding-heads.com/

Post explaining our policies on speech https://exploding-heads.com/post/92139

Out of curiosity how do you view people born intersex? Would you call an intersex person he/she regardless of how they wanted to be called?

I'm sure you'll be able to find a kbin instance that will tolerate and indeed celebrate whatever views you hold - if not, you can simply start a new instance yourself.

The extent to which other instances will federate with it is a differet question.

@haughty_thoughts I'm not going to ban you. I'm going to call you a bigot and block you, like a civilised person. Bye!
