    Imagine having the privilege of so much free time that you can afford to purity test people whom you know full well are using colloquialisms.

      Oh sorry you’re right mods shouldn’t do anything to try and make a leftist trans space more welcoming to people 🙄 silly me. I’ll just ban anything I don’t like and abuse my power rather than wanting to have a discussion. We’ll also go back to calling things “gay” to mean undesirable because it was colloquialism. Words don’t matter, right? /s

        When you intentionally misinterpret people and childishly insult them, as you have done to others in this thread, you debase them more than if you used a word with a “problematic” etymology because you’re attacking them directly. When you use histrionics, however, you debase yourself.

        As a mod of other subs, no, you shouldn’t motte and bailey yourself to weasel your way out of admitting what you’re doing is stupid as fucking hell. Idiotic. Imbecilic. Retarded, even.

        What matters is what’s actually affecting your sub, and right now, it’s

        1. You calling ableism when it is not warranted

        2. You arguing with users on your own sub


        Honestly. 🤦
