    they also removed 5 other respectful responses to my comment… and said they banned me to prevent “concern trolling”, which is very telling because nothing i said could be construed as concern trolling, but they themselves are doing exactly that.

    i believe this mod to be disingenuous and focused on abusing trans people, under the guise of being one of them… as all concern trolls do… and they should be removed as mod.

          Not what I meant but good try. That’s not a respectful comment.

            that’s not what concern trolling even means, ffs.
            this is concern trolling:

            i.e. accusing people of doing things they’re not.
            me saying “people are free to associate however they want” but preferring a more accurate description is not concern trolling.
            gender isn’t binary.
            being non-binary doesn’t make sense in that context.
            i don’t respect the way you’re speaking to me disrespectfully.
            say something other than “you bad”. explain it or you’re just flaming

              you bad. You were debating the validity of a widely used term for gender expression and denigrating the use of “non-binary” as latching onto a futuristic term.

                discussing how a word feels to me is not denigrating, it is expressing an opinion.
                i was never debating the validity of a term, i was commenting on my own personal opinion of the aesthetics of the term… which is entirely valid and i will always respect any person’s preferences of references…
                odd coincidence that binary is being used constantly in every other aspect of the world at the exact same time non-binary was popularized, don’t you think?
                do you really not get that connection?

                  Wait, is it a coincidence that people are using words that we use?
