So I did say Johnathan Ross the ICE shooter is gay with a foot fetish, here’s the whole thing though.

I myself am gay, so they really thought somehow I was attacking him for his possible homosexuality.

I am vocal about black civil rights, and the fact of the matter is I’m gay and white and dating a black person.

I’m waiting for them to at least respond to this appeal but I don’t think so, I don’t think pointing out that I’m gay helped either. But hey, I fit the definition of a number of marginalized individuals. I should have some say on what is objectively offensive, in fact the post I made before I got ban was talking my boyfriend in Milwaukee and seeking advice how I should move in.

I don’t know if you know this, but interracial couple is considered marginalized. Yet Reddit doesn’t not count that.

So it is like to me to say I’m spreading hate for saying that possibly Johnathan Ross is gay, like gay people don’t really consider it hateful when a hateful person who is being supported by right wingers and is a right-wing conservative is gay but some website is going to determine that one of their LGBT+ users call out someone as being gay as you are being homophobic.

They are very clear about the reasoning of course, but I can tell what their trying to throw.

So yeah I’m openly gay and Reddit thinks I must be some homophobe, while I have talked open about my relationship.

    First, what you did was attack his sexuality, and that’s still homophobia, even if you’re gay. Quit normalising bigotry. Second, “what is offensive” is an entirely personal and subjective standard, there is nothing that is “objectively offensive”. You can tell with the penguin test (if a penguin wouldn’t also find it offensive, then it’s not objectively offensive). Finally: they did you a favour, dude. Reddit sucks, that’s why we’re all here.

    Also, nobody cares how they moderated you. It’s not a comment on you personally, they don’t even know you - and that’s the answer to everything you posted here: they don’t even know you. Move on and enjoy the fediverse, or run around outside the orange fence like Eric Andre trying to get back in; your choice only really affects you, in the end.
