I apparently got shadow banned almost a year ago from blahaj, for a comment I made on lemmy.world
(lemmy.sdf.org)
For the record I was posting in support of inclusive language, but pointing out that context and convention matter.
They seem to have even scrubbed my comment from their instance, lol.
He specifically said in another comment that he would stop if asked. If Lemmy users were punished and held responsible for all these random off-comments taken out of context, half of the user base would be in prison right now, and the other half would be on a watch list for some of the shit I've seen people say. Stop choosing to be outraged for the fun of it.
He said, verbatim,
They don't want that mentality in a trans community (shocking) so they preemptively banned him. Nobody is punishing him, he only thinks that because he feels uncomfortable about having to face his own internalized transphobia.
