just wondering if there’s been any updates since nutomic’s transphobic behaviour anyone can report on.

      All the whispering about brigading has seriously been about the dunk tank? They don’t allow linking to federated instances and low traffic posts (and federated instances) are not allowed.

      Calling them fascists is a joke though, like as an anarchist I’ve been subbed to most of their comms for close to a year now (other than dunk_tank which blocks .ml). I have not come across anyone even slightly fascist or supremacist- they even crack down on posting Yakub memes.

      I’ve run into way sketchier/transphobic people on .world - post a contrary political opinion there and you get people going through your posts to find reasons to harrass you.

      Ada also refused to answer a simple direct question that I posed “Will you ban trans fascists/racists” and preferred to talk around it

      As such blahaj.zone is not an inclusive space and is fundamentally only for white people of a liberal bent, the only place I can recommend as accepting and inclusive and has a large trans community is hexbear.

      Also, to be frank, most of their community is /c/196. Trans people feel like a minority there. Also, Hexbear defederated blahaj, not the other way around. They defederated because chasers from blahaj were harassing their trans users + 196 was harassing trans users over their socialist politics.

      Wasn’t it the other way around ? I remember hexbear defedding blahaj because some mod was defending chaser stuff and Ada defended them or something like that.

        Yes lol, second line from the blahaj link:

        Edit - Hexbear announced plans to deferedate from us.

        From what I saw it was because of the behavior of the mods there, among other things (links in the link): https://hexbear.net/post/369410

        Due to multiple factors, such as unaddressed ableist removals from the /c/196 moderators, defense of chasers, no-quarter rules regarding our users, leakage of good-faith DMs from our admin team, and a general lack of initiative to punish these behaviors, we have come to the conclusion that the 196 community on lemmy.blahaj.zone has made the fediverse an unsafe space for our queer, disabled, neurodivergent, non-western, and other marginalized comrades on this forum, and we will be defederating from lemmy.blahaj.zone until we can be confident that this will not continue to be an issue.
