  • Ghazi aims to hold itself to the highest standards of trans-inclusion
     
    Trans issues and terminology are important and we encourage you to be up to date on these before engaging with trans people. User suggested resources can be found here.
     
    Besides outright transphobia, outing people or speculating on their gender identity is not allowed. This includes posting comments from other forums speculating on someone’s gender identity.
     
    Misgendering people, asking for details about an individual's surgery, and erasing non-binary experiences is also not allowed.
     
    Don't dispute or otherwise delegitimize someone's understanding of their own gender or lack thereof.
     
    If you are unsure whether your comment/submission would follow these rules, message the moderators first.

    Making racist/sexist/phobic comments is not ok.

    Don't compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity.
     
    Don't be a jerk. There is a real human being on the other side of your screen.
     
    Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.
     
    No "justice porn". Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not
     
    Contrarianism for its own sake is unnecessary.

    If it's not something that would be covered in the average review, please be courteous to other users and put it in a spoiler. Use [type_of_spoiler](#s "spoiler text") to denote spoilers.

[–]spacekatgalFake Ghazi Girl, Mod told she's not a Mod 7 points8 points9 points  (6 children)
Special Shout out to the Ghazi mods who participated in the ousting of one of the most important women CEOs in history.
[–]_rhetz_Social Justice Ghazi 4 points5 points6 points  (2 children)
The mods made the sub private for a short period of time because they had what they felt to be legitimate complaints about how reddit was/is being run. They did not, as far as I know, call for Ellen Pao to resign or to be removed from her position. And I disagree with the implication that people shouldn't air their grievances out of fear that they may rock the boat.
[–]lastres0rtMy Webcomic's Too Good for Brad Wardell 4 points5 points6 points  (0 children)
TL;DR: It's possible to criticize Pao's actions (e.g. for mishandling someone's firing) without it being a direct attack on her for being a woman.
Mod behavior =/= GG-MRA behavior.
[–]Urdnot_VexMan Controller, isn't that a joystick? 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Then they should have asked for input before making the decision.
[–]SaracenusAgent of S.H.I.L.L.E.D. 1 point2 points3 points  (0 children)
Just a quick question, what should have been the response of the Ghazi mods to the firing of Victoria? Or, for that matter the alleged lack of response from Reddit admins to the mods site wide, lack of proper mod tools, etc.
I think it is regrettable that Ellen Pao is stepping down in response to some horrific crap flung her way from the primates that live here in the Reddit Zoo. I do not see this a net positive for Reddit.
On the other hand of Reddit was truly interested in pushing the changes she was bringing to the site, they should have stood by her and let the poop fling where it may.
Fuck, this is why we cannot have nice things.
