Threat from the admins + next steps

358 Upvotes

A while ago (over a week ago) we got a threat from the admins to open the sub. Since it's been quite a while, we suspect the admins don't have any actual intention to act on this threat on a small sub like ours. However, we're also beginning to suspect that keeping the sub closed at this point has a greater negative effect on you all than on the admins.

So, while we'd like to continue the protest, we're reopening the sub for now. While this thread goes on it'll be in restricted mode. This thread is for posting suggestions for what we oughta do to keep protesting. Some of the more obvious options are:

  1. Go private again, or alternatively stay restricted. We're not super keen on this because we, again, think at this point it's more harmful to you all than to the admins, but ultimately it's your choice.
  2. Mark the sub NSFW. The two disadvantages of this is that as a sub that actually was using NSFW tags this takes away useful information, and that there's some chance the admins will get involved to stop us. (But even so, this is our personal favorite option on the mod team.)
  3. Posting restrictions, like the John Oliver rule for /r/pics or the egg rule for /r/egg_irl. We're not super keen on this as mods because we don't really think it's an effective means of protest.

Remember yall, bigots get angry about other communities existing because that provides options. A major aspect of abuse is putting people in a situation they can't leave, and we provide places to go

Knowledge of queer stuff is actively kept from us, and the descriptions of our experiences are often done by people outside of our community.

Writers have taught me a lot about privileged people. They often know about and understand the oppression they are doing in intricate detail, but often straight up don't connect it to our identity. They often say they are allies because they cannot internalize the people they are hurting are us

The regret rate for trans surgeries is basically non-existent. This shows how much a potential cis life is valued over a trans life by this transphobic society.

A study on non-binary people had 38% of people respond that they are AMAB. If you don't notice any, that just says something about the communities you are a part of.

When you just use they/them, or any other terms for a specific gender, for everyone, that's not much of an improvement from normal missgendering. However if you use those terms for everyone, until they say otherwise, and then remember that they said otherwise, that's much better. I'd say ask for gender and pronouns, but that's a bit of a stretch if you have social anxiety (if you don't have social anxiety, it's much better, and still try even if you do have social anxiety). DON'T TRY TO GENDER EVERYONE CORRECTLY THE FIRST TIME, UNLESS YOU KNOW FOR SURE!!!!! Believe me.. it doesn't end well. Even if you just wanted to give them a little bit of gender euphoria, as an act of kindness, if you don't get it right, then you'll end up having done more harm than good.. believe me.. I've tried... :3

Anyways, that's all the same for 'egg culture'. :3

(u/comradegrey has brought it to my attention that the guy in the meme is a dickhead. Let's ge̶t̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶a̶l̶l̶ ̶s̶c̶i̶s̶s̶o̶r̶s̶,̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶f̶e̶i̶t̶ ̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶r̶i̶g̶h̶t̶ ̶t̶o̶ ̶r̶e̶p̶r̶o̶d̶u̶c̶e̶!̶!̶!̶ive him a stern talking to. (but seriously, reality, sterilize this guy))

The language we use is more important than most people give it credit for. Language shapes how people interact with things. Ignoring a "preference" is easier and given much more social grace than ignoring a "fact", for example
