A reddit user posted screenshots of a gas giant that were beautifully adorned with the colors of the trans flag.

This attracted bigots with their agenda to disrupt the community discussion and the mods shut it down by locking the post.

So the poster created a second one with more photos as a symbolic gesture that the message was simply about pretty planets that they felt represented them-

It too, was locked.

I made a post there proclaiming that I am leaving until I see the mods replaced with those that will not give in to bigotry, and I linked to this community with the hope that people can find a new home here.

Sooooo… welcome new friends!

What’s wrong with me? You’re the one deciding that someone else should moderate and confront hate on a subreddit because you feel entitled to their efforts.

Having consideration for others is the baseline of being a decent person. Why is this a problem for you?

Golly gee, how awful of me to expect someone who volunteered for a position of authority to actually do something their position requires.

This isn't random bystanders catching flack, these are people who SIGNED UP TO DO A JOB. If I volunteered to help at a soup kitchen and then just never showed up, the soup kitchen has a right to be upset with me. They are, in fact, entitled to be upset with me because I made a promise to help. And then I broke that promise.

They did do what their position required they shut down a thread that was filled with hate that had no bearing on the game.

You think they should just have to accept dealing with hate non-stop because you have zero empathy for these people as you have made clear in your posts.

You seem to think subreddits shouldn’t be focused on the subject of the subreddit which is really weird.
