Thank you for all that, but you forgot about the most important part of the original thread:
Defining politics as "controversial topics" is propaganda invented by transphobes and it empowers transphobes on the forum. I told Ada that allowing propaganda like that would lead to transphobia. And it did! Abigail was directly transphobic! I was right and Ada was wrong. This is basic science, we tested Ada's hypothesis and proved it incorrect. Allowing people to misuse the definition of politics will lead to transphobia, I explained why and then I proved it.
I agree that it empowers transphobes, what I meant in my OG response is that this misuse isn't an innocent one, it is in fact endemic to anyone wanting to silence others, trans people being one of the targets. It's a weapon for oppression, and Ada didn't recognize it as such, the consequence being the cesspool Blahaj is right now. They removed your posts and banned you, they literally did the opposite of what they were supposed to do; so I say, let them keep their echo chamber, anyone on there who saw that you proved them wrong will leave the instance. You did the right thing by raising awareness, and fighting for your rights.
Thank you
