The overlap between kink and lgbtq+ I don’t see as an issue. As long as adults are the ones involved and we keep minors out of it I am 100% for it.

Isn’t that exactly what this thread is about?

As in, blahajzone has defederated from lemmynsfw for kink content which, from what I’ve gathered, seems to consist of consenting adults only.

humans living as they please shouldn’t be political

By that logic, why is it a problem if consenting adults express themselves sexually in non-traditional ways?

Historically speaking, there has always been a lot of overlap and connection between kink and LGTBQ+ communities. There was a time not too long ago where simply being gay was considered to be not only a “sexual perversion” but also a “paraphilic disorder” by the psychiatric community. (Not advocating this viewpoint in any way, just pointing out the historical context.) Because of that, the LGTBQ+ community has basically always been an ally of the kink community, and vice versa. And if you visit a pride parade, for example, I think everyone can agree that there is a general vibe of sex-positivity and personal sexual freedom that suggests that there is no “wrong” sexual expression between consenting adults.

since right‐wingers has already been blaming the LGBT+ community for pedophilia, they didn’t want any more risk of the media start accusing the blahaj instance of endorsing pedophilia, so they had to act

Innocent trans person: gets wrongly accused of pedophilia by disingenuous lying scumbag fascists as part of some stupid political culture war.

Same trans person: wrongly accuses someone else of pedophilia to appease disingenuous lying scumbag fascists as part of some stupid political culture war.

Trans rights are human rights. At the same time I think that every adult has the fundamental right to sexual self-expression, alone or among consenting adult partners. The definition and very nature of “kink” means that a person finds something erotic that other people find mundane, strange or even gross (like feet, bondage, roleplay, nylon, furry, piss play, adult diapers, etc). “Sex-positivity” means being tolerant with the fact that different people get turned on by different things, and that basically anything goes between consenting adults who are following whatever laws that happen to apply to them. Nobody has to like kink, but people ought to accept that kink is a valid form of consensual adult sexuality.

At this point, the facts seem to suggest the the lemmynsfw community in question was made up of consenting adults. And so, taking the misdirected heat off of your community by wrongly directing it at someone else’s community is indefensible to me. Nobody is being protected when false accusations fly freely and people start shoving others under the bus for political convenience.

I think the blahajzone made the wrong call here, and lemmynsfw deserve credit for sticking up for sex-positivity amongst consenting adults, especially under pressure.
