Should we have a "no linking to transphobia" rule for submissions?
Post Body

Hey friends,

We mods have been encountering some things in the modqueue that make us uncomfortable to approve but which aren't technically against the rules of the sub as they currently are. Specifically, where a trans poster links to some transphobic shit someone else said to mock it, or of them arguing with a transphobe. (Without any shame or offense meant to these examples, here are some; CW for transphobia on all of them.)

IMO this is close enough to just posting transphobia that I'd rather it not be on this sub. (Plus it's basically never actually a meme, so it's doubly bad.) But, it's technically not against the rules, and part of the conceit of this sub is that we do things democratically here.

So, what do y'all think? Ban this? Allow this? Ban some of this but allow others of it? What do?
