I’m not surprised that comment was pulled, I’d have also assumed bad intentions.
Since these moderation events often attract people like moths to a flame, consider this: those in LGBTG community spaces may seem a smidge jumpy as bigots often mask their bigotry with imprecise language. What likely is poor word choice in another community has a much higher chance of being thinly veiled abuse here. Cut the mods some slack and please try to use more precise language, especially about sensitive topics.
Okay I agree, but I maintain that that comment and any other ones removed weren’t thinly veiled insults or the like. If they were insulting to anything, it’s some niche philosopher somewhere and not necessarily to some distant and distinct application. I’ll keep it chill going forward. I mean, I just want to shitpost and not create headaches for mods.
I understand. I don’t intend to dogpile, just explain one aspect of why sometimes LGBTQ+ space mods seem so reactive. They often have to handle more than the average mod.
