The ideology behind this request

Sometimes the stupidity goes on and on and on until it’s out of sight, like Route 66 or the Trans-Siberian railway. Behold an online summit devoted to research on a famous 18th century lesbian, requesting “your pronouns” and then removing a lesbian who provides sarcastic ones, and then blocking anyone who criticizes this lesbian-hostile behavior.

So, obediently, we consult the Code of Conduct:

Anne Lister Research Summit is committed to providing a welcoming and harassment-free environment for participants of all races, gender and trans statuses, sexual orientations, physical abilities, physical appearances, and beliefs.

No it isn’t. It’s explicitly (and apparently proudly) not providing a welcoming environment for belief that gender idennniny is bullshit, or for all trans statuses, or for all gender statuses.

Who is the bully in this scenario? Is it really the gender skeptic who is doing the bullying?
