And what I mean by the reality of binary gender ideology- it's the roles of society expected on us, it's the othering in schools, housing, workplaces and healthcare that ends up letting trans people suffer be that abuse or mental health or both

That's just to say
Trans women are women
Trans men are men
Non-binary people exist
We are not a threat to society, we have always existed and we will always freaking exist

And then when they use the Cass review to deny lifesaving care like puberty blockers, they are contributing to the material oppression of trans people, and the material reality that if you are rich then there are no barriers to this care, but if you are poor, well damn

Deliberately ignoring and debating trans existence out of reality and blaming it on poor mental health - poor mental health is the reality of a gender ideology that maintains gender binaries

Trans healthcare is about choice, when they speak of "predatory" doctors, they're denying trans people their own self determination, we aren't the ones pathologising trans youth, they are, by deliberately ignoring trans people's voices in the care we should have access too

Supposedly "left wing" "feminist" transphobia is so ridiculous. Why is trans healthcare and solidarity a socialist issue? because trans oppression is a material reality, limiting gender to biology is the real harmful gender ideology belonging to class society

@michaeljswalker.bsky.social mate GCs don't have a point on trans women in sport. You've accepted their claim on vibes and gut feeling. Trans women underperform at every sport at every level. Sports bans, which don't just affect trans people, are blocking grass roots participation and that's it

Joe Bidenβs green light for Ukraine to fire US-supplied missiles deep into Russia is a potentially dangerous escalation.
It pushes the prospects for peace further into the distance while risking an even broader NATO-Russia conflict with disastrous consequences for the whole world.

Gazan Accounts
I am writing about the spam label/ suspension problem that many Gazan accounts are having on Bluesky. I try to message most of the new accounts from Gaza to try to help them avoid being labeled but it would really help to have some more specific guidelines, because many people I believe are following the guidelines l've been suggesting and still having problems.
I understand that you probably cannot tell me specifics but even general information would help me help these accounts act in accordance with Bluesky's rules, which I'm assuming is the goal of both of us. It also may be helpful to publicly post some of this information (preferably in a few languages including Arabic).
Specifically I would really like to know:
- Information on follower count leading to a spam label (is there a hard number they should avoid- is it overall/ by day?) Also are there any plans to just limit the amount of follows an account can do if a large following amount is something that is triggering a rules violation?
-Information on how complaints come in regarding messages and replies and how they are generally assessed (once again I know that you can't give me specifics but it would really help to let them know what is going to happen if someone makes a complaint). Also in the case of replies- is it taken more seriously if the complaint is made by the person who got the notification or can anyone complain about a reply (even if it wasn't made to them) and it will be treated similarly?
-Information about how an account is assessed for spam if there isn't a complaint about a specific message or reply (for example if the account is reported as spam-what general things do you look for). Would just posting their own GoFundMe link on their page lead to a spam label or suspension if someone reported them? Do you take into account that sometimes Palestinians are targeted for reports because of their race?
-Information regarding the appeals process-many times no one hears anything back after submitting an appeal (and sometimes they don't receive any information on what triggered the ban to begin with). Also in which cases would an account be asked to provide ID documents to stay in good standing?
I know that moderation is not an easy job but I think that most of these specific accounts would be willing to follow the Bluesky rules if they knew what they were. I really enjoy Bluesky as a community and I know that making it a welcoming place is a goal we probably both share. Thank you in advance for any information you can give me.

So I hate to tag the mods- but I sent this email about the mass deletion of Palestinian accounts over a week ago to @support.bsky.team and I havenβt heard anything back (apologies if I somehow missed an email). Iβd like to ensure it will be seen by the proper people.
