Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

What are you doing on blahaj zone, mate? That's the trans instance. She denied the genocide of trans people during the holocaust. She denied the book burnings of the research by the institute of sex and gender research.
I read your article, and I found this:
- JK "Just Kidding" Rowling
But that's a lie. Because she wasn't accused for saying that. She was accused for saying this:
Rowling had to lie about what she said, because she knows that what she said is incorrect and also holocaust denial.
She has gone on to tell the same lie about why she's being attacked multiple times, despite having been fact checked on it and arguing back against the fact checking. Because she's a lying bigot.
And it's not surprising that Jewish News UK printed these lies excusing holocaust denial, because they're lying fascists. They have a track record of supporting Israel's genocide. They like genocide, they're fascists who print lies!
The Wikipedia also says
And I disagree, because it's not sometimes. It's most of the time.
Encyclopedia Brittanica: Holocaust, the systematic state-sponsored killing of six million Jewish men, women, and children and millions of others by Nazi Germany
History.com: The Holocaust was the state-sponsored persecution and mass murder of millions of European Jews, Romani people, the intellectually disabled, political dissidents and homosexuals by the German Nazi
See, I think it's really irresponsible to do as Rowling does and make the Holocaust solely about Jewish people and not the other groups.
First, the etymological argument. Holocaust means whole-burning. Not Jew-burning. It's not called the Loudaicaust, is it? Indeed, according to Wikipedia, people used to say "The Jewish holocaust" up until special importance was assigned to the Jewish persecution and people began to conflate the two.
Second and more importantly, the ethical argument. When we assign special importance to the persecution of Jewish people, we forget the historical oppression of other groups. Which is exactly what Hitler, Rowling, and Netanyahu want us to forget. All three are aligned as fascists who want to tear down history and forget the suffering of those they deem subhuman. Anti-semitism does not exist in a vacuum. It always operates as part of a broader ideology we call fascism. The ideology of all three of these people. The Holocaust is what the fascists did. They did it to many different people. Never forget.
And finally, you moved the goalposts. When you cited Jewish News UK, your position was that she didn't deny the persecution of trans people, because that's what Jewish News said. You've already lost the argument, and now you're trying to save face for Rowling by quibbling over technicalities.
Modern Israeli politics aside, and thats a huge aside, saying that antisemitism doesn't exist is a bold claim seeing as the one thing you can bet on existing pretty much any time and any where in the last couple millenia is antisemitism.
I'm not Jewish. I have no dog in this race. I just like going down history rabbit holes and it always makes me laugh when "Opinions on Jewish People" seems to show up randomly as a section on the wiki. Almost like it's a genetic predisposition in some people. It's fascinating.
Please tell us about modern-day antisemitism. It would actually be awesome to hear the examples cited in the video existing. Prove me wrong.
And calling worldwide Jewish exceptionalism both in politics and in society "modern Israeli politics" is pretty fucking crazy, not gonna lie.
You want a clear example of modern day antisemitism?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bondi_Beach_shooting
2025, a father-son duo go to "Chanukah by the sea" at Bondi Beach and shoot into the crowd, killing 15 people. Worst terrorist attack in Australian history.
The media blames Palestine supporters, but I blame Netanyahu. See, he's been conflating Judaism and Zionism for years. He had to know he was inciting politically illiterate people who hate Zionism to also hate Judaism. And I think he wanted it. Because attacks like this, to the politically illiterate masses, sap support for Palestine. Governments get more support in policing anti-zionist speech as supposedly antisemitic.
And it works because there is no denying that 15 people, including a 10 year old girl and an 87 year old holocaust survivor, were shot dead for attending a Jewish holiday. There is no denying that antisemitism happened here.
What do you mean by this? Aren't most Nazis denying the Holocaust?
I'd argue the opposite. Supremacists of any kind don't care about facts and only care about "their side"
Nat-Z stands for National Zionist. And I'm not a Jewish supremacist.
What I meant by that was that any kind of rhetoric that would harm the Zio victim narrative in any way would get a huge hit piece from them, not defense.
The Zionist narrative has always downplayed or erased non-jewish holocaust victims.
I know. I don't do that?
So what term do we use for the non-jews that were rounded up and sent to the same concentration camps and murdered?
Rowling has been on a rampant lawfare against organizations and individuals that call her on her bullshit, that's why there are many cases of people having to apologize to her publicly.
Also why are you linking to a Zionist tabloid?
But transphobia and nazism are different things
Also, wouldnt holocaust denial be when you deny that the holocaust existed (to say that the nazis werent that bad), not when you deny that a certain group was targeted?
