Moderation of trans issue and terms

Which part are you supposedly offended about ?

Wait now...

In the first 2 words of this reply you state that it is patently untrue that you are attempting to filter discussion on trans issues - then you go on to say that that's exactly what you want through word filters and Mod enforcement.

Then, when challenged for examples of allegedly offensive posts or the terms you are bothered by, you back away telling posters to do their own research - why? It's your thread and call for change. The onus is on you to explain and illustrate why change is needed. It surely shouldn't be hard to do if it's such an issue?

I'm genuinely confused.

I think it's as I said initially. You don't like what you're reading because you disagree personally with the positions being put forward by other posters and how they clash with your own views, and so are seeking to censor those other views through censorship under the guise of being kind or not "offensive" - but again without any evidence to support the idea that anyone is actually offended besides yourself.

You've just done it again!

You don't want to filter or limit the discussion, but you do want words and terms known to cause offence to be filtered.

What words? Who are they offensive to? Based on what? Where are the examples of this that prompted your original request/post in the first place?

Saying it's tedious that you're being asked for these things (and not just by me) isn't an answer if you are expecting your suggestion to be considered I'd have thought? Indeed if it's such a big issue it should be very easy to provide multiple examples and reasons why the posts were offensive, no?

But.... If indeed it is actually just the case that YOU are offended that's fair enough too, but I must refer back to my previous replies that that doesn't mean that these posts, words and terms (whatever they are) are necessarily ACTUALLY offensive either.

It's a discussion forum. People are going to post things that others disagree with for whatever reason. Trying to limit or filter that because you don't like the content isn't going to change that - especially when it comes to topics like this one.

What are these terms that people are offended by? Cisgender is one. What are the others you are insinuating?

You don't seem to have any issues just using the other terms as examples but haven't given us the ones that specifically offend trans people. Nor has the person who started the thread.

I was going to respond to that but nullzero has nailed it above to be fair.

All I'll add is that hysteria and strawmanning doesn't actually do what you think it does, nor is it clever or achieving that "so there" hit you think it is.

It just undermines any actual point or argument you're trying to make.

They haven't and they've very recently said that they haven't asking people to do their own research instead which I have.

You seem well versed in derogatory terms but don't seem to want to list specifics in relation to this thread.

I am here from the begining of the thread. At no point has the OP given a list of words/phrases used in the forum that they deem to be transphobic and up for addition to the filter list despite being asked numerous times.

I seem to be the only person on thread who has suggested adding cisgender to the banned words list as it is offensive to many according to my research.

Continued attempts telling people to go back to the beginning and read again will continue to result in the same responses....

Once again - this is YOUR thread and YOUR call for action based on what YOU have seen posted in discussions on this topic.

It's entirely reasonable to be asked for examples of what you're referring to and you probably should have expected that.

Responding with, essentially, "you know what I mean", and then trying to score points (wasted on me incidentally) by inferring transphobia by anyone who doesn't just accept your argument (which you haven't actually made) doesn't help anyone or anything either nor does false equivalence to unrelated terms no one is using here.

If this is such an issue, it should be very easy to back up YOUR OWN CALL to action with clear examples - if for no other reason than to help the Mods in the review you're asking for.
