A reddit user posted screenshots of a gas giant that were beautifully adorned with the colors of the trans flag.
This attracted bigots with their agenda to disrupt the community discussion and the mods shut it down by locking the post.
So the poster created a second one with more photos as a symbolic gesture that the message was simply about pretty planets that they felt represented them-
It too, was locked.
I made a post there proclaiming that I am leaving until I see the mods replaced with those that will not give in to bigotry, and I linked to this community with the hope that people can find a new home here.
Sooooo… welcome new friends!
Aren’t there options to restrict posting to people that have been around the sub for a while though? Pretty sure I have seen others do it. Might be a better choice as it means you are only banning community members that are bigots and bigots from outside of the community can’t comment.
That allows the community to continue to enjoy the place.
If that’s an option, agreed. It’s been a while since I’ve been active over there so it didn’t occur to me.
