How should we treat Imperfect Allies? (piefed.social)

Hi,

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, I'm specifically curious to see how blahaj.zone, feels about this topic.

I recently made a post Discussion: Do Not Reject Imperfect Allies

In this post I open up the discussion as to how we should treat imperfect allies, and made some crude examples one of which relates to people who are Pro-Trans but not fully.

What do you feel is the best way to approach these scenarios, and influence positive change?

I think your response makes the most sense, it feels like Blahaj has gained a reputation of intolerance, but OP seems a little confused and maybe thinks it's about the community here rather than a specific moderation policy choice, and that the community thinks the moderation policy reflects how we should treat imperfect allies generally?

It's not clear, so while I think defending the moderation policy is the best immediate response to the question (since it responds to our reputation), I wanted to give OP an opportunity to parse this in other directions, in case challenging our policies was not the intent.
