It's almost as though if you need to force people to think a certian way because education doesn't fix the apparent bigotry, then maybe you're the one in the wrong?

But no, the trans community could never be wrong about anything, right?

If every few years or so, all the mods from all the big subs were rounded up and dropped off in individual groups somewhere in a deep forest, with plenty of provisions, GPS, paper maps, proper hiking shoes, books on survival, etc... and if they did not find their way back to civilization together as a group, then we'd get new mods for that sub... or something like that.

Some sort of litmus test that really matters. That's all I want.

I thought that was heading in the direction of “Hunger Games.” I vote in favor of mod Hunger Games and volunteer all of the LGBTTTQQQ mods as tributes.

What happens in the forest stays in the forest. If it turns into the Hunger Games or Lord of the Flies and they don't all make it back, then they don't get to mod anymore.

This is the way.

Although that sounds like a lot of fun, I'd go with a record check, and maybe employment history.

More on this saga from 8 years ago that has foreshadowed everything else that has happened with gender activism. I’d heard there was some drama back in the day about over-moderation of r/LGBT leading to creation of r/ainbow but this was back when I was in denial about my sexual orientation so I was not hanging around in those spaces on reddit. And, of course since then, r/ainbow has since been captured as well so it would be interesting to hear the story/timeline of that.

I have never heard of r/ainbow until now. Went right over while reading the recap, hoping for some sparkling oasis in the Tesert.

Nope...

Laurelai really is the very essence of the Cluster B trans monster.

I'll bet 'transphobic comments' consisted of lesbians talking about how they don't like dick, gay men talking about how they don't like pussy, and bi's talking about how they like 'men and women'.
