After the last post publicly by Naomi Wu being

“Ok for those of you that haven't figured it out I got my wings clipped and they weren't gentle about it- so there's not going to be much posting on social media anymore and only on very specific subjects. I can leave but Kaidi can't so we're just going to follow the new rules and that's that. Nothing personal if I don't like and reply like I used to. I'll be focusing on the store and the occasional video. Thanks for understanding, it was fun while it lasted”

Naomi Wu mentions briefly on her silencing and how she is not nearly as safe as she was before now that it’s obvious to the Chinese government her disappearance won’t cause an uproar of bad press making China look bad.

As far as i can tell there is nothing regarding 3d printing in the article. I don’t think it is too much to ask to keep a community for 3d printing on topic. This seems to be some news piece about someone who had influence on / contributed to the 3d printing community, but as it’s not directly about 3d printing, I honestly fail to see the relevance.

    No. This is very relevant to this community. Naomi has been a great member of this community. She is an engineer and is known for bringing innovative products to market; many with her name on them.

    Furthermore she is being targeted for LGBTQ+. That makes the issue doubly relevant to all real humans.

    That said, incels REALLY hate Naomi for whatever reason.

    I think you're way out of line with the insults and broad accusations. I am bare new to the 3D printing community and I never heard of Naomi Wu before. The article only mentions she is an influencer, and this discussion makes little to no efforts to add context to why is a particular influencer relevant to 3D printing.

    Calls to clarification are faced with comments like yours, accusing those of asking a simple question of being incels.

    This behavior reflects poorly upon you in particular and the 3D printing community in general. Please pay attention to what you say and do.

    Let me give you a quick life lesson.

    You've typed too many words to try to rationalize your toxic behavior.

    I repeat: pay attention to what you say and do. All communities have their bad apples, but this does not grant the likes of you the right to spoil the whole barrel.

    Ah, you forgot to check the "about community", or "sidebar", or whatever it shows as in your app of choice.

    It's an easy thing to forget.

    If you had, you would note that there are no rules against posts regarding related, and not technical subjects.

    This means you don't have to see the relevance. As long as the mods do, it's all good.

    From the community info:

    3DPrinting is a place where makers of all skill levels and walks of life can learn about and discuss 3D printing and development of 3D printed parts and devices.

    This doesn't appear to be discussing "3D printing and development of 3D printed parts and devices".

    I don't think there's anything wrong with content being curated to fit the community that's literally the entire point of communities. Just because someone says this should be on a different community doesn't make them an incel. It's called content curation, it's the whole point of having multiple communities.

    Am I missing something? Where did anyone specifically get accused of being an incel in this thread?

    Discussion of influential figures in the broader 3D printing community is as valid as posts, videos, or articles about related tools, products, and news.
