He a narrow definition of transness and harassed the community over a trans person ostensibly feeling unwelcome because of people like, fuck, what was their name, the dragon fucker person, who wanted to be referred to by their name only.

Isn’t drag just trolling? Drag’s the alt account of another, more prolific user apparently lacking any of the same… would zoophilic tendencies be the right phrasing when speaking about a sapient, fictional species? Either way, I just hope people feel safe on blahaj when all is said and done.

I dunno Drag always seemed sincere to me, and perhaps Drag was outed as a troll later on (I haven’t seen them in a long time, maybe that’s why), but really what it comes down to is having basic respect for people instead of instantly deciding they must be a troll because of their profile. Ada isn’t about people making snap judgments with no evidence and Drags neopronouns were just as valid as anyone else’s.

And Pug is still stalking this thread and replying exclusively to you and me so Ada and other Admins can’t see him.
He’s very afraid of the truth being told to him.

Pug couldn’t handle this basic request for decency.
And still can’t, and still insists Ada is evil for blocking him. Very pathetic behavior.
Still waiting for when he leaves, like how Admiral Patrick said he was leaving a year ago.

That is my perspective as well. It’s worth neither the time nor energy to try to parse drag’s deal. People come in too many shapes and sizes to constrain your perspective. Drag is, at worst, a useful litmus test. However, this does read a bit like Kassandra’s prescience.

Again, I never failed to use Drag’s pronouns, nor did I object to the neopronouns used. In fact, Drag never gave me any guff about acknowledging dragons, and likewise, I never bothered Drag about it. It was always unrelated people insisting that I had to acknowledge the reality of dragons existing, or else be transphobic.

Because I, while on a non-Blahaj instance and having not used any Blahaj comms in months, opined that while I would use anyone’s neopronouns, including Drag’s, and had no interest in getting into an argument with anyone about their gender, I didn’t think dragons were real.

I thought that was it. Yeah, Ada definitely defends her site with a level of zeal. She mellowed out as potential community issues dwindled, but was contemporaneously doing what beehaw hoped to do. Building a safe space in a semi-open system.
If someone wants to make up pronouns and act like a goof, they’re protected under the same system by design. Even questioning the questionable is perceived as an attack in a safe space. Fundamentally, she wants everyone at blahaj to feel 200% safe. Real? Fake? Not anyone’s business. Just be and allow others to be.
Finally making my way to my point, most people don’t need to be in a safe space. Pointing out that someone’s manner of being isn’t conducive to the perpetuation of a safe space is really not much of a takedown and I’m not sure why the user above feels like it is.

Unfortunately, Ada still to this day spreads slander that I do not respect neopronouns, despite that explicitly not being the issue and being corrected on that.

Well, you don’t seem like much of a bigot to me, for what it’s worth.
