Comment on how to get unbanned from communities?

I pointed out that constantly posting about ‘trans rights’ was just a way sow division with a topic that directly impacts a very small portion of the population, but gaslights a large portion of the remainder. Got banned.
Wanting rights for a minority is gaslighting and sowing division?
Please, I’m very excited to hear your explanation of how, without being a transphobic piece of shit. Please, go on.
I mean if you don’t mean anything bad you won’t get banned, right? ;)
When you define anything that involves trans people and something you don’t agree with as transphobic then you’re not going to be able to take three steps out of your door in the morning without encountering something transphobic.
Everyone deserves basic human rights and the dignity that comes with them. And someone can feel like they are whatever they think they are, absolutely fine. And others may fundamentally disagree with what you think, which is also completely fine.
The fact of the matter is that the majority of the people in the world, don’t give a shit what bathroom someone uses, or what an adult decides to believe or do with their own body. They never did. So by putting such focus on an issue that impacts hardly anyone directly, one which many people fundamentally disagree with, you’re just making more division.
everyone in the country had their civil rights suspended, so try and think a bit larger than just one microcosm.

Supporting human rights isn’t in any way “gaslighting”. It’s very reasonable to ban someone for being a piece of shit.

You must be an active mod on one of the tankie instances with that kind of thinking.
Everyone is a piece of shit in their own respect. It’s our jobs to find common ground in spite of that

There is no middle ground between binary options. You have rights or you don’t. You hate or you don’t. “Just a little bigotry” it’s still bigotry. If I say 1+1=2 but you say it’s 3 that does not make the right answer 2.5.
Your worldview is literally the middle ground fallacy.
