No anime avatars (Sorry, but a very large amount of drama and bullshittery comes from folks with anime avatars)

That also disproportionately removes trans people, I imagine. Anime is a pretty large cultural staple of Online Trans Culture, for some reason (I don't watch much and don't get the appeal) so I don't think this is the best move.

You're not wrong, but people with anime avatars on Discord are very bad, and yeah a lot of them are younger trans people, they are still bad though.

I got banned from several anarchist discords and called truscum for not agreeing that "transsexual" is a slur and using it as a label for myself, and for saying that afab folks using the term "transwoman" for themselves is appropriation, and these were trans folks with anime avatars. I'm not truscum, I'm just a trans person who lived through the 90's lol.

Talking about anime, liking anime, posting anime shit, is all OK and allowed though.
