I kinda get not starting shit with other instances (Although, Hexbear should be the last to be able to invoke that), and it is still her instance and her rules there. But yeah it would not make me happy to be part of a community under those rules. Being a safe space doesn't mean you have to shield bad actors from criticism. Especially if she's not going to be respectful to good actors. And it really is weird how she comes to some of her conclusions (How is a non-existing person trans, where did she learn this?) and then still wants the same response when that turns out to be wrong.

This comment thread reminded me of a problematic trans group that is mentioned in the "Being phobic is sus: weeding out transphobic Facebook groups" Facebook group occasionally because that behaviour seems really similar

I've forgotten the name of the group though and will edit my comment if I find the name again and haven't forgotten about this comment

Edit found it

The problematic group is the "Trans Education" group run by "Evey Winters" on Facebook

The posts describing that group are similar to the what the comments here describe

I have edited my comment because I found the name of that problematic Facebook group
