Jumping in here from the sideline: Just because you have an opinion doesn't mean that it's unreasonable to feel hurt by that opinion. Also that opinion doesn't necessarily mean there is a debate to be had. That opinion can also be transphobic, which would explain both the hurt and the nondiscussion of that idea.

Also I have a hard time following your thoughts here:

I strongly believe freedom and transparency should be over security. I have enough of the censoring, auto filtering of messages, manual approvals and believe they do a lot more harm than good. Perfect examples of that is what many governments try to do with the analysis of all of our private messages, phone and computer contents and media

A) I am pretty sure you mean safety and not security. Having the ability to post or not to post has very little to do with security and might have something to do with the safety of readers, instance maintainers and most importantly, the victims of the csam.

B) equaling moderation on a community to state sanctioned censorship is always a big red flag. Let communities choose their own rules. No community should be forced to accept every post from everyone. You do not have the given right to post to every community just because you want a big audience. You have the right to make your own community and build your audience.

C) neither moderation nor censorship are relared to the government monitoring your private messages. That is an important topic that should be discussed widely and be called attention to. But it's wildy unrelated.
