I appreciate you posting some receipts and acknowledging that you probably shouldn’t have commented that.

I think there might have been an issue with this:

…consider [email protected] or another trans-friendly community. While Hexbear claims to be trans-friendly,…

It kind of implies that you don’t see hexbear as a trans-friendly place which is very strange as they have very strict polices regarding transphobia. You can argue all you want about not wanting people to migrate to hexbear, but they are undoubtedly a trans safe space. It comes across as disinformation which might be why you copped a ban. The ban might have also been for other reasons not apparent in your screenshots, but we ideally need a dialogue between both parties to understand better.

It might have been helpful if you included some of that reasoning in the ban reason.

Are we able to see your removed post? It might help to understand the context here a bit better. You might have been transphobic either in that post or somewhere else, but I’m not the one who banned you so I wouldn’t know. I’ve seen that you are cis from some comments (please correct me if I am wrong), so please know that you might have accidentally said/done something iffy even if you didn’t think that was the case. I’m not accusing you of being transphobic, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t that per se. I’m inclined to trust a trans mod’s judgment here for a trans community.

Regarding your edit, I contacted db0 beforehand in regards to the nature of this proposal. I was told that this was within scope of this community. I didn’t know about the matrix chat, but feel that this should be a community decision rather than behind closed doors and obscure modlog entries. I also didn’t want this to be a drama-fest so I did not post this to yptb.

inb4 some software bug bans us all haha

Here’s the thread (archive link) that the admin intervened in:

@[email protected], cats CAN NOT survive for long with a vegan diet. Its dangerous for them. Cats are carnivores.

Please refrain from removing warnings about such dangerous facts. Everyone who killed their cats by doing so, have a nice rest of your life knowing you killed your loved pet.

p.s. yes i am a cat owner.

Edit: to the rest of the mods: Dont promote harmfull things for pets. @[email protected] and @Eevoltic are demoted.

If anyone else thinks pets should be vegan i have no problem banning them for being a troll and promoting killing pets.

Just that you heard it from me too: YES cats can survive vegan diet for few months but prolonged exposure and it gets harmful for the pet and even death.

This is why I banned them and would do it again if I could. They’re actively spreading misinformation and being incredibly aggressive about this for some reason.
