How has that flagrant troll not already been banned? Stranger ---

Don’t know if it’s appropriate at this time to mention one of my favourite (short but sweet) SDMB posts, by Ann\_Hedonia, suggesting that DemonTree go smash their fucking fingers with a hammer on the keyboard (or something to that effect, hence no quotes). ---

The acronym-based etymology for the term is automatically suspect, just on account of it being an acronym-based etymology. [![](https://i.imgflip.com/9ip2cw.jpg) ](https://i.imgflip.com/9ip2cw.jpg) ---

Can we program the Disco-robot thing to autoreply to her ATMB posts, “you won’t be allowed to advocate your awful gender bigotry here, no matter how many different hairline loopholes you try to claim allow you to weasel through”? Because it seems like that would save a lot of time. ---

Honestly, it’s more interesting seeing some of the usual suspects standing up and complaining about the -biased- moderation. Oh, a few are doing so in the “technically correct” way, but others… Although the point was well made that no, it’s not biased moderation if say definitions were in the rules, to which the response was that those rules were wrong and how could I be expected to know them… 🙄 ---

I quit the board before because debating so many people at once was too stressful, and the nastiness, especially in the Pit, made me horribly depressed. But I muted the Pit, and took breaks if it seemed too overwhelming. I sympathize. I too receive a lot of negative replies every time I question some minority group’s right to exist, even when I’ve been unfailingly polite. It’s so unfair that I should be held accountable for what I say in public fora. ---

Seeing as this is the Pit and one of the two subjects is banned, the other Pittee is an eminently reasonable guess. You can check the last several posts for links to the relevant threads. I have little desire to wade back into that morass of ignorance and hate, though. ---

I’ve been arguing with DemonTree for quite literally years, in public posts and in PMs, trying to explain to her the many problems with misgendering trans people, in specific or in general. “Denying people’s right to exist” is a stupid way to describe what she is doing.
