Transphobia is not allowed. This isn't a democracy. It's pretty simple: don't be an asshole. Every comment removed violates the civility rules of this instance. Which reads thus (emphasis mine): Do not engage in name calling, ad hominem attacks, or any other uncivil behaviour. Criticize ideas, never people. IOW: Be transphobic and be prepared for me to iron fist the vagueness of those words. It's pretty easy not to be an asshole. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Lorium_O@lemm.ee 1 point 3 years ago* (1 child) “Criticize ideas, never people.” Guess I can’t criticize serial killers- nevermind permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Imotali@lemmy.world 1 point 3 years ago Them's be the rules of this entire instance. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Derproid@lemm.ee -1 points 3 years ago (2 children) Just to play devils advocate, wouldn't that mean it's okay to criticize the idea of transgenderism if you don't criticize the people who are transgender (although not really sure if that's even possible)? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Imotali@lemmy.world 4 points 3 years ago Yes. If you could prove transgenderism exists. See because you attach an -ism to it you are (in English) saying "the ideology of transgender individuals" which is "we exist" which is not an ideology. It is a fact. You can disagree with facts all you want but it doesn't make you smart.or intellectual.... it makes you wrong. permalink fedilink source parent [–] Captain_Waffles@lemmy.world -1 points 3 years ago That would be like trying to criticize blackness without criticizing black people, it's not possible. permalink fedilink source parent [–] gunnm@monero.town 1 point 3 years ago* That's the thing about choosing an instance, it's his house, his rules.
