I hate the sudden locking of the posts in here.

Mods will remove opposing viewpoints

I mean, this is exactly why you got banned from Reddit. I would figure that after an experience like that, humans would figure out that there was something wrong. And correct it. It's what we do, as humans. When confronted with adversity we grow as people and change. This didn't happen, and it's distressing and disappointing. Especially among educated people who should know better.

for any arbitrary reason and call it "Hate Speech".

You're doing the same thing. You really don't see it? :/

No. Let's be clear about why s/LGBdroptheT is here and not on Reddit:

  • Each subreddit on Reddit is allowed to practice topic censoring. That's just a fact. (It's also true of Saidit.)

  • Reddit has decided to ban any subreddit that is OK with people saying, "I believe that sexual attraction is determined on the basis of sex and not gender."

  • If someone were banned from s/lgbdropthet for breaking our rules, they could go make their own subsaidit about whatever they wanted to talk about. But if someone were banned on Reddit for saying, "lesbians aren't into dick," then they would not be allowed to create their own subreddit in order to express their views.

You're doing the same thing. You really don't see it? :/

You're making a false equivalency. Because at the end of the day, here's the fact:

Nothing is stopping trans rights activists from joining Saidit and expressing their views in their own subsaidit. LGB people are not allowed to go make their own subreddits on Reddit, yet trans people are allowed to make trans-centered subreddits.

Some spaces are exclusive, and some spaces are topic-censoring. That's pretty common to find in life. Quit dragging down discussion on the Pyramid of Debate, please.

edit: clarity

Wtf did you really gloss over the bulk of what I said and output some unrelated human adversity diatribe like some npc robot? Keep on with your moralizing whataboutism, while totally missing the point. Eat some more code while you're at it. You need your input.

Yup, they really did. Just a garden variety troll, I guess. I appreciated your response, thanks for speaking up.

Yeah, I don't know where that first one came from. I wrote a response but scrapped it due to sounding too angry. I wrote another and it still sounded angry- but good enough lol

Dude, I respect it, sometimes I restrain myself too much.
