For the record I was posting in support of inclusive language, but pointing out that context and convention matter.

They seem to have even scrubbed my comment from their instance, lol.

I think it's really easy to construe "get over it" as dismissive of a marginalized group's concerns. That's how it comes across to me. If it needs context to seem less so, it could probably use better wording.

Stop downvoting this dude, they're not wrong, it's a reasonable take and true in hindsight.

who cares. some of these communities are trash who don't allow you to participate if you don't align with their views. no different than reddit.
