The Community Standards page says:
For the avoidance of doubt, we do not tolerate discrimination such as racism, sexism, transmisia, pluralphobia, ableism or other sorts of discrimination; we do not tolerate unwelcome sexual advances, stalking, harassment or doxing.
I have a few question about this section:
- We use the term
transmisia
and as far as we can tell this word is not widely used and while the roots of the words more accurately map onto what is being described it adds more friction for understanding for people who are familiar with the more popular term oftransphobia
while not decreasing the friction of understanding for people who don't understand the term. If the maintainers disagree I would say its fine to keep it as is but then we should also probably changepluralphobia
to match a similar but new but still unpopular word root scheme homophobia
has been omitted in the list I don't think that was intentional and it was just forgotten. (exact wording to depend on point # 1)- is pluralphobia not encapsulated within ableism? Our understanding is abelism just means a way of being that under the context of the current society makes it hard to function at the same degree such as neuroableism. There isn't a value judgment behind saying autism is a disability its just a description of "being autistic can make it hard to communicate and accomplish social tasks in a highly social and unstructured sociaty"
