It was brought to staff attention that Bliss_Of_Dreams (account age 184 days, site membership 181 days) "has been consistently vagueposting about being homo/transphobic for quite some time now. Just a cursory overview of their posting history reveals several comments on queer articles mentioning discomfort or alluding to being homo/transphobic".

It doesn't really matter that this article makes me really uncomfortable because of my own personal biases regarding LGBTQ groups.

It doesn't matter that I still can't over that nagging feeling in my head that I'm a transphobic piece of shit that'll die unhappy.

It doesn't matter that I would be a possible victim to SCP-6113 as of the time of writing with how I'm feeling about my body. (I'm not a transgender person.)

This Article slaps. Be proud of it.

I probably should've worded it as "Being friends with people who had really intense reactions to marginalized groups of people that had their opinions rub off on me, and I'm still figuring how to feel about it".

Sorry.

can confirm I am indeed uncomfortable

All of you are valid, all of you are allowed to tell aphobes to fuck off. You have my full support. This is my article for this year's Pride Fest and I'm sorry that it isn't an affirming story or even a positive one, but it is my story.")

tbh I js hide so I dont have to say shit like this. Maybe I should stop internalizing my hatred for people over the fact that they exist, and that my mind just says that I shouldnt like that

or im paranoid idk

Received the following message, not a reply to the ban PM (note: the ban PM directed the user to IRC for the appeal):

To whom it may concern,

I recently noticed that I've been, well, permanently banned from the SCP Wiki for consistent vague posting on being relatively bigoted. I've read the O5 post, and I think I just need to send a quick message, I guess.

So, I believe I should just contextual that I'm in a pretty shitty stage of my life right now, and my mental health isn't at it's best. If this doesn't really feel up to par (if there's a standard to these appeals, which I don't really want to look into yet) then there's an easy scapegoat to look at.

In short, I personally do not have the mindset of a bigot. The juxtaposition I was in while writing those comments manifested as "I'm horrible, and I need some flaw to set up," and it just so happened that pridefest coming around the corner was the perfect time to keep up that stupid, stupid facade. My actual opinions of marginal minorities and the like isn't really as extreme as that, and that mindset is more-so universal, not targeted to just people I have no business hating on.

I guess another check to rub on the wound was that I was sucked into a pipeline for several years now based around alt-right perspectives that rubbed off on me way too hard, and I only managed to get out of that thing recently. I've pretty much cut off all my ties with them, and I don't plan on coming back there. I'm still recovering from the shit they 'washed' my mind with, and I guess a sense of uncomfortable bigotry was one of them.

Anyway, yeah. I'm an impulsive person. I say things I really shouldn't because they looked 'funny' at the time, and I have to realize and condemn it afterwards. It pretty much takes me to places I shouldn't even come to, or conclusions that make no sense in hindsight.

So, I'm sorry for my behavior. If this appeal isn't accepted, then I understand. I wrote this up in like 20 minutes, and probably should've looked at it a bit more.

I sent back:

I will forward your appeal to staff for review.
