Is kbin meant to be a far-leftist echo chamber?

When I report his stuff it will go to him because he is the moderator of the magazin[e]?
When someone reported one of my posts (they thought it was spam) in my magazine I got a notification in my magazine panel, yes. No alert telling me there was a notification, but a notification.
Am unsure if admin likewise get a ping but almost certain they would be too busy to notice if they did.
Why do you care? Is kbin.social not a free speech platform? If not, Iβll find somewhere else to go.
I donβt even agree with these folks, but if people are going to start raising a big stink because people are saying things they donβt like, Iβm out.

You're all so fucking sensitive. This is nothing hateful, and you're trying to censor it because someone doesn't align with your political views. You want lemmy to become your next leftist echo chamber. Go to your beehaw, where everything you don't like is censored.
Reasonable people can have disagreements about trans rights.
For instance, the complexities of solving trans issues in sports, does the age of HRT matter for gendered leagues and title IX? Rule changes occur in sports leagues every year, how will acknowledging trans people change the ways we revise rules for safety, competition, entertainment, and sportsmanship? Should certain sports start to franchise into coed/nonbinary leagues?
For instance the best approach for teach children acceptance and tolerance towards peers who may come to identify with a different gender thsn assigned. There can be conservative and liberal approaches to teaching tolerance.
For instance the difference between the Human Rights campaign that wants LGBTQ civil rights to mimic POC civil rights (the capitalist conservative path, btw) versus groups that advocate liberation politics and taking civil rights in a more left wing direction.
Those are political disagreements. QAnon-fake-news trans lobby conspiracy is not a political disagreement - it's just trolling.
Wanting to actively attack people you don't like is not a political view, though. It's literal violence.
Hate speech doesn't equal free speech!

Is there a way to block seeing any comments or posts from exploding heads?

Thank you for exposing all the people who want kbin to be just like Reddit. If that is what kbin turns into then it can join spez right where he belongs.
Your calls for censorship should get YOU and your peers in this thread banned.
It's not censorship, it's keeping people acting in bad faith from easily act in derogatory ways actively harming people.

I don't know what is going on with this new magazine, but are you suggesting that we can't be critical of "woke" culture and/or aspects of trans culture? I think both have some excesses deserving of some criticism, e.g. witch hunts on social media and transwomen in women's sports.
Edit: Unbelievable downvotes over a completely reasonable take. Perhaps there is no hope for the internet after all.
You're being downvoted for making a reasonable take, to a completely unreasonable set of posts.
The problem is basically people going "let them talk banning is free speech!" When the talk is either an article demonizing the trans lobby, or a post below it that takes a moment to talk about how back in the day it was acceptable to beat homosexual people to a pulp.
That is why you are being downvoted. Because you're trying to act like a reasonable response is to be expected to a set of unreasonable and destructive takes. There's a group here trying to normalize hate speech as something that can just be argued with when most of them are cherry picking their arguments or just arguing in bad faith in general.
