I agree that 'ironic' homophobia is still homophobia, and should be removed, just like 'ironic' misogyny and transphobia.

his comment wasn't 'You're gay', but it was close

A meme this could be seen as referencing is this

you responded with this:

Going into past threads to respond about an unrelated grievance would get you a temp ban in a lot of lemmies, regardless how valid.

Here's the transphobic part of the post of yours - the same one in the post above

spoiler

Hexbear has done many surveys at this point of the gender of its users (most recent one linked here) As of this last one cis people are in the minority, I don't know why you would insert a comment like that if you weren't trying to be transphobic.

Lol. The joke about shooting "a superiority complex" (3 feet above your head) is encouraging self-harm? This the probably the most told joke about French people ever, it was invented by Belgium. I haven't met a single person from France that doesn't find really it funny, and I've met more then you ever will. Maybe it doesn't translate well, but it's definitely a joke, no ambiguity here. On the other hand a loser calling me "Gay" for loving my daughter it's clearly humor?? Fuck off lol. I've been bullied all my life, I've learned to stand up against this kind of "joke". Maybe I've overacted but I will always show my teeth when it involves my daughter and homophobia.

I still haven't seen my so-called transphobic comment, why don't you just quote it?

BTW, you're just confirming me that you .ml people are powertripping hardcore. I use to defend the instance but I will now gladly join the bashing. You people suck.

I'm not familiar with it, and I doubt many other people reading it got that either. It's a little ironic that you're this bent out of shape when other people don't get your joke but at the same time can't give other people the same deference.

I still think removing the homophobic comment -ironic or otherwise- was the right move, however you going into months-old threads to harass them about your current beef was also something begging for moderation.

I have, twice now, are you being intentionally obtuse? click on the spoiler tag if you want to see.

I'm genuinely shocked that people are upset with what you're saying. Even if people believe the "95% of you are guys" comment isn't transphobic and is just weirdly presumptuous, the rest is still pretty icky behavior.

It's the reflexive hostility liberals have towards anyone calling out someone complaining about Hexbear.
