NoScript blocks this link, so given the very limited context, I think I'll skip this link for now.

This is really smart actually.

I see, so he blocked specific keywords, not just specific users?

Thank you for taking the time to provide me this context.

I see. As someone who has been in said communities, I must ask: were all trans and leftist communities blocked, or were only the niche hang-outs of specific individuals blocked? Because in my experience, trans and leftist spaces are rarely what they are named for, and are instead hangout spaces for specific online cliques. "Trans communities" may ban all trans people except 5 individuals, for example, and still call themselves a "trans" community.

You said that "they" got "called out for supporting fascists"? What fascists did they support? Are you saying that the author of the blacklist is a fascist based on his banning trans and leftist communities, or are you saying that they're Trump supporters or something like that?

I'm afraid this is not enough context, my apologies.

In the online art community, "tracing" means you're a bad artist and cheating, people get doxed and bullied offline for tracing.

For real artists, using tools to trace real-life objects and photographs is normal, and has been since medieval times. Not the photograph part of course, but real life objects can be traced or copied using various methods, and it's perfectly acceptable to do so.

No, the first thing you said was the real answer.

This rant tells me absolutely nothing about what happened except that this man is angry about something. Since you're calling him a fascist, you seem to know what is going on, or have some type of context. What happened?
