Nutomic is still a site admin, still banned from this comm, haven't heard anything new myself.
- looking more and more like I'll be making an alt on another instance then... :p
  
  Yeah, just a frustrating situation, running into communists who view trans people as bourgeois decadence is usually something I have to go home for.
  
  The process of 'westernization' was what brought things like homophobia and transphobia to places under colonial occupation. The civil criminalization of gay people in England started as early as things like the buggery act of 1533, buggery comes from the french term bougre -
  
  "sodomite," 1550s, earlier "heretic" (mid-14c.), from Medieval Latin Bulgarus "a Bulgarian" (see Bulgaria), so called from bigoted notions of the sex lives of Eastern Orthodox Christians or of the sect of heretics that was prominent there 11c. Compare Old French bougre "Bulgarian," also "heretic; sodomite."
  
  The western imported 'values' were themselves rooted in xenophobia and bigotry against eastern orthodox heretics. (Bogomils)
  
  Feel free, migration takes 2 clics
  
  I was going to request hexbear admins to federate with sopuli.xyz, but it looks like sopuli.xyz blocks hexbear
  
  A lot of instances have a thing against hexbear, which imo is just because cis white boys love to keep making shit up about trans people / cry when the trans people don't like transphobia and are mean to transphobes. Half of hexbear is trans.
  
  Blahaj defederated hexbear, and they aren't really cis white boys

  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.
  
  Interesting, thanks for sharing
  
  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.
  
  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.
  
  I had a person there say I deserved to die, like a kulak, and then I got banned for not arguing in good faith. So. There are other reasons.
  
  You defended biden's genocide so... not exactly a civil thing you did there. You led with being evil.
- still banned on a few hexbear comms
  
  Banned from entirely from hexbear, it's a site ban
  
  I stand corrected, serves me right for only searching in the .ml modlog
