Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

what?
Here's the goomba fallacy in a nutshell:
It's basically two fallacies of composition together. I think Kairos is saying it applies in this case because of the greentext.
(Another name for the same fallacy is the "Muhammad Chang" fallacy. Basically: if the most common name is Muhammad, and the most common surname is Chang, then the most common full name should be Muhammad Chang.)
I willing to bet there are people named like this in indonesia and west china (uyghur province)
Most likely, but it isn't the most common full name in the world. Because typically people with one don't have the other.
(Plus family names aren't even obligatory in Indonesia, and Muhammad is so common among Muslims around the world that they typically have also a second personal name — like "Muhammad Osman".)
that's fair. At first glance Muhammad Chang sounds impossible as the two cultures are quite separate, but I tried to think of overlaps.
What would A and B be in this case?
It's all implied, but:
A: fetishising trans women +> treating trans women as women
B: refusing trans women rights +> not treating trans women as women
Or something like this. She's implying a lot of stuff into the post.
Note the "core" of the text is simply taunting that shithole full of bigots, and boils down to "your claims that nobody treats me like a woman are wrong, because chasers exist".
[EDIT: to be clear, I'm trying to interpret what she said; not condoning or condemning her, I'm in no position to do either. And what comes below is more of a comment on society being fucked up.]
It's like a fucking lasagna made of shit, you remove a layer of shit, then there's another layer of shit below, recursively. 4chan's "hurr durr you never be a woman", society refusing human rights (such as, you know... trans rights?), fetishisation (a type of objectivisation)...
i'm reading it more like refusing trans women rights is treating them like women have historically been treated.
That's what I'm reading too, a cynical joke.
This, too. And there's a third way to read it:
Two more layers to the shit lasagna, I guess...
[Note: I'm not trans. So, please, if anyone who's trans find something I said is wrong, or bullshit, please do point it out.]
What, porn based on taking titty pills? Revolutionary. Next you'll tell me people will take dick pills for porn.
Also, I think what you said is right.
