Quit being daft with your disingenuous concern trolling. There is an obvious difference between a community forming rules to maintain a particular purpose and a community not being OK with any other community existing anywhere that has contrary views points to its own. No one in here is advocating for trans-identifying people to not have forums and spaces where they can discuss their issues among each other or any shared LGBT spaces. We just want to be able to have our own communities (and orgs representing our interests$ too including the communities that were forcibly taken from us via hostile takeover (e.g., r/actuallesbians) and/or outright banning (r/truelesbians). For example, when this place was on Reddit, its mission did not include getting the stalker/shadow subreddit (r/LGBTDroptheTransphobes or whatever) banned, even though that subreddit was dedicated to getting us banned.
