You might have been able to infer this from the title, but I don't believe this community is a good fit for Lemmygrad.

It might not be the best community on Lemmygrad, but I don't have an issue with it thus far.

The mission statement of the community would do better on Lemmy.ml or one of the ones with more general appeal from liberals. But as it stands right now, it's fine.

I think it's a pretty huge red flag though that it's a brand new "transracial woke-free" account that immediately creates this community and starts using it to link fascist rags and nothing else

It might be suspect, but it's important to give people a chance to either make their case or shift to our community's concerns before we damn them.

But I do agree with the "woke-free" part of the concern, that feels like a dog whistle. I will be scrutinizing this account and their communities.

There's no scrutinizing to be done here. I refuse to participate in a community that accepts or enables anyone claiming to be transracial. In my opinion, someone claiming that they're transracial warrants an instant permaban. I have been a member of Lemmygrad for a long time, and I moderate some of its biggest communities. I even run other communities that are affiliated with some of Lemmygrad's communities, but I would've deleted my account if this person hadn't been banned.

to be fair, i'm dyslexic and kept reading it as "Transradical"

had my eyes have actually worked, the ban would've been sooner.
