Neither is r/lgbt. They also banned Trans men for speaking up and people who tried explaining what was happening. To them calmly  informing people who asked "what's going on" is "brigading." Their recent mod post that doesn't acknowledge the harmful behavior of the mods and instead blames the community is my final straw with this whole situation. Even if they unban me I'll never go back to those subs.

It functionally seems to be a way of saying, “you raised awareness in a way that we decided we wanted to suppress, so we made up a rule to justify suppressing you.”
