Update:
#Purism has decided not to honor my request to be removed from their #purismforums and be provided my data, stating:
We will not delete the anonymized accounts or posts
To #purismforum users, I do not consent to any of what has happened, and I recommend abandoning that site.
To users who stay there, never link to my projects or my socials and never mention me, my socials, or my projects ever again.
For those wondering:
I find myself in this situation because transphobic posts harassing me were allowed to remain on that site while Purism moderators removed, hid, or censored some of my responses. My posts were calm, civil, and respectful, while many of the posts directed at me were none of those things. Purism’s moderators decided that it is acceptable for users to repeatedly post transphobic insults directed at a trans user, while it is strictly unacceptable for any user to say the word “fuck” in any context, including in a hidden thread that exists for discussions centered around the “politics” of pronouns.
Goodbye and good riddance

yes, i brought it to their attention that other users had been allowed to be forgotten, but they are determined to claim ownership of my words on that site and have denied my request for deletion. and they have also denied me the right to delete my own posts one-by-one.
in the mean time, i’ve set my repos to private and am completely disengaging with those people.
