The latest ban was for calling someone gay. The sub I used was known for being a place where you could do that. Call it edgelord or hateful or whatever, I’m immature and still find it funny. Sue me. I had done it dozens of times on that account. I had seen it dozens of times on that sub that week. This time: Instant ban. Literally clicked save, clicked on a new link immediately after, banned.

You’d probably be more comfortable over on Twitter or Truth social then. Casual homophobia doesn’t go over well around here.
Alright then. Fortunately, unlike on reddit, blocking here actually treats an account as if it no longer exists. So that’s enough of you for one lifetime. 👋
If your hill to die on is calling other people gay, maybe this isn’t the place for you. That’s all I was saying.
We’ve got a pretty large LGBTQ+ user base here. Homophobia isn’t funny no matter how rational and logical your other topics of conversation were there.
You know what does help them? Working together. Collaborating. The free exchange of ideas. Sharing a laugh or an experience. Bitching about life and dating your shitty fucking job together.
Calling them gay helps them apparently /s
Your account is hours old and you really think coming in here and scolding all of us for being anti-homophobes and anti-edgelords is the move?
So, before you run your mouth any more, you should know that lemmy is a pretty small population and proudly obnoxious people may not be banned, but they sure as hell can be put on a lot of people’s personal blocklists.

I’m gonna follow that other person’s advice and be the change I wanna see in the world
You mfers ain’t even seen casual homophobia yet

The mods and admins won’t look kindly on that, just to give you a fair warning.
Homophobia is not something that is tolerated well here.
Well, if it makes a difference, I’m being completely serious
What’s the point of coming into a community to spread hate on purpose?
Again, the Fediverse is still rather small, we all kinda know each other here. You won’t find a warm welcome this way.

Absolutely. It’s the best possible use of my time
You’re getting this upset over the smallest pushback on using “gay” as an insult. Interesting.
You started this shit. I was minding my own business. Chopping it up all nice and civil

I’m shaking in my boots, partner
Yikes.
Those are the exact type of Redditors that I would prefer stay far the fuck away from the Fediverse.
This attitude sucks.

Immature? No, the word you’re looking for is “homophobic.”
No, actually it was obstinate. Obstinate. Back to the board
