Wow, this thread had me bringing out the ban hammer a lot!

Yeah and judging by the modlog, pretty arbitrary. I was expecting transphobia or similar, but the banned people were just annoyed by OPs "smugness" and then ban reasons are "you're not the victim" or "playing victim when told he has to earn allyship"??? These are not real reasons no? Im not suggesting a power trip but are you OPs aunt in need of defending them or what.

There is no space on this instance or its communities for "allies" who think the tone of queer folks comics is the real issue that needs to be talked about
