The Dude seems to be trying to fence sit on extremely vitriolic transphobia and refusing to listen to the trans folks who are trying to warn everyone

That seems to be the consensus but I don't see where it comes from yet? This latest thing seems to have happened over the course of a day and their last message is 2 days ago.

For the "the donald" thing they appeared after a bit like "hey, catching up on everything, obviously it's gonna go". Seems likely the same would happen here? Just feels like a busy regular guy who could use some mods.

Unless there's some non-public stuff I'm not aware of as a newcomer?

It's been going on for most of the server's lifespan. The vote to defederate exploding heads was a week ago now, and afaik the dude hasn't commented on it yet. Admins for the instance have said "we need more time".

IDK. I like this account but I think I'm going to close it off and go to another instance, maybe I'll return if this one gets its "sh.it" together. It'd be one thing to be given a reason for disregarding the vote - then I could decide if I agree or not - but the radio silence feels disrespectful given the nature of the request.

I see, that is concerning.
