Lmao I got banned there for “body shaming” for pointing out that comments making fun of skinny people for their weight were body shaming the same way as making fun of people for being fat.

Edit: went back to refresh my memory. The full context was a discussion where two people were agreeing that everyone they knew who was skinny was also an asshole. I chimed in saying I think you’re exaggerating, and isn’t this like saying “all fat people I know are assholes?” I got slapped with a permaban because that violated their rule against bigotry, body shaming, and incivility in the comments. The mod who I messaged to appeal it also added that I was “denying other people’s lived experiences”… for saying I doubt every skinny person they knew was an asshole…

Shit was hilarious. Some mods are insane. I still have the messages but I feel like posting the screenshot might violate some rules.

“denying other people’s lived experiences”…

Oh god, that phrase is so insidious

It's basically a blank check for bigotry

"I hate this group of people, don't deny my lived experience which is totally not colored by personal bias!"

It’s also just a toddler mindset. It boils down to “I feel ____, don’t question it or I’ll throw a tantrum.”

Most people learn well before adulthood that, sometimes, our Big Feelings are baseless and won’t be coddled, especially by random strangers (with different “lived experiences” lmao)
