I left Reddit because I got perma sub banned for being part of another sub. Which had no correlation to the other one. After this happening twice I said screw it. Fediverse it is for me

If someone does transphobia, I instance ban them whether or not they did transphobia in one of my communities.
Good for you. It’s important for your self esteem to feel strong and powerful.
it’s important to make sure regular violators of social contract are properly ostracized from communities where their toxicity is unwanted.
Fediverse’ Einsatzgruppen… You have been warned!
In the context, this implies “Ada is solely doing it for the sake of her own self esteem”. I don’t think so; a simpler and better explanation is that she’s building a safe space for trans people, and the sort of people who’d spout transphobic shite elsewhere would make that environment unsafe.
So the situation might look on the surface similar to the one in Reddit, but deep down it’s nothing alike:
Apples and oranges.
Well put
That’s pathetic.

Found the meme the parent comment reminds me of lol
Eh. Blahaj and beehaw kind of have an obligation to over-protect their instances and users.
That is not “over-protection”. Trans rights are human rights.
I’m being supportive of that.
Also I’m blocking you for being complicit.
I believe they were trying to say that it’s the right thing for the Blahaj instance to do, because many of the users there belong to groups that are frequently targeted by hateful people. They likely meant to say something like ‘extra protective’ not overprotective.
You do you, I guess.
I’m not trans but, thank you. Everyone deserves to feel safe being who they genuinely are (except Nazis and slavers, they deserve help being better, if they’ll accept it).
