    196 is just a community hosted on Blahaj, it’s rule is “post something before you leave” which is why all the posts on it have “rule” in the title.

    The “drama” comes from the Blahaj.zone instance

          then I don’t get what the problem is, the admins make the rules for their instance, communities in those instances follow those rules, if not they can move to other instances, see the star trek communities for examples. the admins are making a hard stance on this issue and have the right to enforce the rules they state they will enforce.

            Just like people have a right to come to this community and say they think it’s a silly rule. We all are within our rights, hooray.

              so if we are all within our rights then the admins were justified with their bans , I’m glad you agree.

                  so somebody who has right is not justified when exercising those rights? like whats your point here? the admins make the rules, they say they will enforce the rules, its entirely within their rights to do it, and people get upset when they do it? if you dont like it then go somewhere else, theres other trans spaces on lemmy, try beehaw, or make your own. i swear your all acting like children who dont want to get told no, nobody is making you interact with these people or this space, your choosing to do so, why does it matter so much to you?

                    Yeah, like how one has a right to freedom of speech, but that doesn’t make it right to spread rumors.

                    nobody is making you interact with these people or this space, your choosing to do so, why does it matter so much to you?

                    Like, this is literally the triggering event that caused me to leave Blahaj, that’s exactly what I’m doing. I don’t know why complaining about something that I feel is absurd is such a deep offense to you.

            People question the validity of those rules, to my understanding that’s where the drama begun. There’s an individual who refers to themselves with other pronouns than “I” (ex. they don’t say “I went elsewhere” but “word went elsewhere”) and people think it’s a troll.

              neopronouns have been a issue of discussion for a long time on blahaj zone. multiple people have been caused discussions over the history of the instance, many discussions exactly like the earlier one. the admin said themselves that the recent post was not spurred by any incidents or individuals in particular, and the instance has always moderated in this way, long before this incident. it has repeatedly been stated that neopronouns are the norm, accepted, and protected on blahaj zone. most of the people who are complaining are not from blahaj zone anyways.

                I’ve been waiting until after Christmas day to make this post, but some of our communities recently have had a lot of noise and upset over someone that uses neopronouns that most people are unfamiliar with.
