So I’m not 100% sure this is the right sub for this but I couldn’t really find another sort of mod abuse sub that had actual users. I recognize that I am most certainly an asshole in this situation, but I got banned Fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com for a misogynistic comment I left on a completely different sub.
imogen_underscore in that same thread made multiple death threats against me and has only received a 7 day ban. So I want to be clear here that in their eyes a misogynistic comment left on an entirely different sub is WORSE than death threats left in your own sub?
You literally posted a screenshot with its pronouns, why do you have to misgender her?
They as in that person? It’s a gender neutral term. Are you taking the piss?
It’s gender neutral when you don’t know the pronouns of a person. Her pronouns are literally in its bloody display name my friend.
Chill out, it can also be used when gender is irrelevant.
Explain to me how that user’s pronouns are irrelevant when she’s being directly referenced by OP. I’ll wait.
Are you of the opinion that the pronouns are relevant to the length of their (plural their mind you, OP and imogen_underscore) bans or that the discussion here will somehow change depending on their gender?
That’s moving the goalposts by quite a lot.
I would say it is moving the goalposts to the topic at hand, but let’s agree to disagree.
I think a person’s pronouns are always relevant when talking about the person at hand, when they are known. It’s really as simple as that. Anything less, and you are misgendering that person.
Transphobic people regularly use they/them for binary trans people to avoid using their actual pronouns. If you know someone’s pronouns be respectful and use them.
Like the other comment said. Chill.
