MODERATORS
I think the best course of action here is that the community should be locked, and all posts should be removed save a redirect to /c/women and/or a list of other feminist communities on the fediverse. That will solve the continuity issue of people coming here from reddit, and it'll solve the transphobia issue. I've made a post on /c/twoxchromosomes calling for this solution, but I'm not expecting a response as others have been asking the mods to do something about the gender essentialism since the subslrpnk was created. These new mods have directly cited the original justification that having two X chromosomes is "girly" and "subtly awesome". That's direct gender essentialism. I don't think having people who claim to be trans inclusive, but stonewall trans people's concerns is appropriate. I don't think it aligns with our code of conduct. If the 2xc mods aren't willing to listen to trans people's concerns, then custodianship of the community should be given to someone who will.
