MODERATORS
OP's from a extremist/transphobic instance. A bigot trying to frame this as a bad thing, but ironically it comes off as a celebration of a good decision from the Australian Sports Commission.
That instance 😬
I was initially apprehensive to click on this post because I was worried I would have to read transphobic bullshit like this. But I was so relieved to see your comment calling this out.
LOCKING: the article linked is itself ok, the transphobic commentary is not.
Keep EH commentary out of here. Will defederate then when I'm at a PC.
I've taken a look at EH... there are some genuine communities that would be collateral damage from a full defederation. I'll leave the instance linked for now, but future posts such as this one with any sort of *phobic content will be deleted and risk full defederation.
For now, I don't want to throw the baby out with the bath water.
I don’t love how the inclusion of transwomen is build on testosterone limits. But it’s yet to be seen if national sporting organisations will apply this limit across all participating women. If we’re going to say that 2.5 nanomoles/litre has a competitive advantage I think that should go for all competitors
I think this post is in violation of the instance rules. Plus it manages to be transphobic and sexist at the same time.
Including evidence to back the opinion presented by this post would cause not to violate the rules and allow for insightful discussion.
