I just got banned from [email protected], which seems to be the biggest Linux community out there.

For context, it was about the recent Vaxerski incident, where I shared my personal opinion about the whole gender stuff. I wasn't even trying to be hurtful against anyone, just shared my 2 cents in an already ongoing conversation.

Sure, ine might not agree with my opinion, and I don't agree with others, and this is totally normal. But at least we should be able to have sane and respectful conversations where no one is insulting each other, or anyone else... without having a mod intervening into the conversation

So to all the mods out there: Your personal opinion does not give you the right to delete comments and block users, just because their opinions don't align with yours!

Why do you think it's absurd to use proper pronouns? No it's not absurd, it's just being a decent human being.

Yeah, I don't see it any different from a person that says

"I want to be called Micheal, not Mike"

Clearly Mike needs to stop being absurd.

Mike is being such a Micheal!
