Edit: I also just got banned for apparently being a troll. Me. Not the person they believe to be a dragon though.

    I suppose I should thank everyone in this comment section. I was initially feeling a little like I might have overreacted to an admin making a decision that no one in their right minds would actually defend when I sadposted on 196 about leaving, but seeing the wellspring of support for dragonfuckergender, I now feel comfortable in that leaving Blahaj is, indeed, the correct choice.

        Not at all. Like I said, considering the reactions of Blahaj users in this thread, Blahaj quite clearly is not any place I want to remain active in.

          Ah yes, they’re all crazy, where have we heard that line before? God forbid we treat people with the slightest bit of dignity.

            Sorry, I’ve already committed thoughtcrime by questioning whether dragons are real. This is the state of Blahaj, it would seem.

              You slated the thinking of an entire community centered around LGBTQ stuff, not the reality of Puff the Magic Dragon.

            I invite you to check which instances “all those Blåhaj users” are actually from.

            Copygirl - Blahaj

            Erin - Blahaj

            Catoblepas - Blahaj

            Nimble - Blahaj

            WeirdyTrip - Blahaj

            Erotador - Blahaj

            Any other stupid points you want disproven, or are we done here?

              Here’s some non-Blåhaj users I’ve come across in this thread that are echoing a similar sentiment to me:

              • Ma…@lemmy.world
              • St…@lemmy.world
              • sp…@lemmy.cafe
              • Mo…@pawb.social
              • Re…@lemmy.world
              • yu…@pawb.social
              • Al…@leminal.space
              • ca...@lemm.ee
              • la…@lemmy.world
              • OB...@lemmy.ml

              You’ve got plenty of non-Blåhaj opinions in this thread questioning a Blåhaj admin’s decision.

              Not to mention Dragon Rider isn’t even from our instance. Take it up with lemmy.nz if you want drag’s account banned.

                I’ve stated multiple times that drag isn’t the problem for me. I don’t even remember the last interaction I had with drag. The admin reaction is the problem.

                  So drag isn’t the problem, even though drag’s a “troll” whose identity does not deserve respect (as you’ve repeatedly made clear in this thread), and you’re pissed at the admin whose instance’s rules are to respect identities and pronouns even regardless of that (and then enforcing those rules), instead of the admin of the instance that’s hosting the supposed “troll” and enabling drag’s behavior across many instances…?

                  Tell me how that’s supposed to make sense. Or, actually, don’t. I’ve seen plenty of your kind show their true colors over the course of trying to get through to you. You’re just unable to deal with the fact that you got rightfully banned after breaking the rules, even after being told what the issue is multiple times. Grow up. Learn from your mistakes.

                Just a heads up: PJ there’s opinion is almost always whatever stirs up the most shit while getting them approval. I’ve literally seen them contradict their self within a few minutes in different conversations with separate people. If you look up “bad faith” on Wikipedia, a screenshot of some of their conversations here is listed.

                I’m joking for the last sentence, but don’t drive yourself crazy. They are the poster child for .world’s problematic shit stirring, weird crusading behavior. Conversing with them is a waste of your time.

      A .world user is leaving an instance they’re not a member of and feels the need to tell us about their sacrifice! Such bravery!

      Bye, bigot. You’re not welcome anyway. You don’t get to question someone’s identity. Period. No matter what else they might have done, you do not get to question their identity.

      • I don’t see how it’s bigoted to be concerned with trolls whose behaviour actively harms the LGBTQ+ movement. There are tons of comments of that user that show they’re just trolling and engaging in disingenuous behaviour.

        The right to identify as X or Y or whatever is not being questioned, the sincerity of this user specifically is being questioned. And that’s done because there’s a history of people claiming to identify as X/Y when they have no intention of doing so, and just doing it to drive people away from LGBTQ+ acceptance.

        Gatekeeping support is not the answer here.
