Hey! Can you double check its not in your spam folder?

If there's nothing, then please send an email over to hello@lemmy.zip, include your username, and we can have a look for you!

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 2 points 7 hours ago

Yeah, nothing! I'll send over the email, thanks!

While you’re there, it could be nice if you could answer my email

It’s been 3 weeks now

[–] flamingos@feddit.uk 6 points 10 hours ago (3 children)

That is a very normal bio you have there.

Obviously the reason I want to reach out

Apparently not agreeing with specific subjects about sports and transgender athletes is transphobia, despite science backing up the fact that a debate can take place. When feelings and opinions are over facts and debates, you end up with this mod log and the blahaj instance

I’m not going to start the debate again but you’re free to check the comment history, modlog, search studies, and you’ll find out I’m not bullshitting and Ada, v4ld1z and her team is pushing misinformation for the good of transgenders, but still misinformation.

I mean, you're the one who brought up trans women in sports, admitted to not knowing anything about the subject, and then outright stated you didn't care if you're statements caused hurt, so I can see why you copped a (3 day) ban.

Also, your response to someone concerned about CSAM being posted was to say 'I'm sick of people using "think of the kids" to justify strong moderation' (paraphrasing), so you don't seem like someone worth taking seriously.

That's right, then the lemmy specialists came and hated on me. No source were given, except one, which after checking was a study with low sample size which said that there were small, but non zero, inequalities between cis and trans athletes on a couple of sports, when subject to those sports' rules, while there is no clear consensus on if hormonal treatments are required and the minimum level of testosterone, which can be part of a debate

Apart from that, nothing. So clearly, saying there is equality is misinformation, but saying there is might also be with our current knowledge.

I did my own research. There is no consensus, and anyone saying that there is is lying. However, we do know that having male puberty will make definitive changes to the muscular and bones structure and as such create at least a little inequality, which is ground for debates on the subject. That was my starting point on the subject: the debate is valid and isn't transphobia nor misinformation.

The wrong I potentially agree is saying "biological men" as a mean to refer to cisgender men, instead of using the word "cisgender men". I obviously only used this word in a scientifical context to underline the biological aspect, not as a mean of dogwhistle, but of course if people are against me they will jump on the smallest of things to call me out, even though I wouldn't have used this word in another context. Lessons learned, "cisgender" is also used in science now, so let's not give opponents ammo, and I apologise for this.

and then outright stated you didn’t care if you’re statements caused hurt, so I can see why you copped a (3 day) ban.

I will say it again, but if you're hurt by the fact that there can be a debate on equality between cisgender and transgender athletes, then yes, it's your fault and I don't care, because you're not hurt based on hate speech, but you're hurt because someone has different opinions than you. It's not because you're a minority that you should get a lot of exceptions if that is not fair. There can be a debate and silencing it this way is just manipulation. Passing this as transphobia is deceptive.

Also, your response to someone concerned about CSAM being posted was to say ‘I’m sick of people using “think of the kids” to justify strong moderation’ (paraphrasing)

I strongly believe freedom and transparency should be over security. I have enough of the censoring, auto filtering of messages, manual approvals and believe they do a lot more harm than good. Perfect examples of that is what many governments try to do with the analysis of all of our private messages, phone and computer contents and media... You're just painting me as a weirdo

so you don’t seem like someone worth taking seriously.

This is purely based on your emotions and opinions. I did not misinform or act in bad faith.

You also got temporarily banned from lemmy.zip, so it's not only Blahaj

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip -1 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Yea, by v4ld1z - I mean their bio tells you enough as well

Thus the reason I want to reach Demi but they don’t give a fuck

[–] Demigodrick@lemmy.zip 1 points 45 minutes ago

I do give a fuck.

I give a fuck about creating a welcoming safe space on this instance.

I give a fuck that we act with integrity and fairness.

I don't give a fuck that it hurts your feelings to be called out, nor do I have time to respond to emails that are just more justifications of your transphobia.

We issued a temp ban as a warning. Instead you harass my admin team and bad mouth admins from other instances, while continuing to try and justify yourself.

I suggest you find another instance that will accept your behaviour, because its not welcome here.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Probably busy with something else, or agreeing with @v4ld1z@lemmy.zip decision.

If you're unhappy with Lemmy.zip, feel free to change to another instance.

Answering would be more respectful than ignoring. I'm staying away from the instance for now.

If you’re unhappy with Lemmy.zip, feel free to change to another instance.

My activity on this account should show that this has happened, but it's unfortunate as I enjoyed the instance

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Lemmy.zip has got a large influx of newcomers following lemm.ee shutdown announcement https://lemmy.zip/post/40323214

The instance now has 1170 monthly users, there are probably a lot of users wanting to debate admin decisions.

If you want, you can document this decision on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com , or !modabuse@lemmy.sdf.org

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 2 points 6 hours ago

Didn't know those communities, ty for sharing

a bit annoyed that the main one is hosted at db0 but hey it is what it is

[–] MajesticElevator@lemmy.zip 1 points 9 hours ago

That’s entirely related to the reason I posted the comment above so… yea
