Snowe, an admin, complained about a transgender person being offended over being misgendered. Ategon made an apology post but keeps snowe on, no public apologies from snowe to the transgender people affected.

note: conversation about Ategon's use of the word triggered edited out, might be misunderstanding, need clarified

    This genuinely read to me as them using "triggered" in the other sense, like "caused," as gets used in programming speak sometimes. I would never try to argue this as being true because I feel silly in retrospect, but just thought I'd share.

        Your reading is very reasonable (I think that a general audience of native English speakers would be split on the which sense was being used), so there's no need to blame yourself either way.

      nah they're referring to branches of a comment thread being "triggered" in the colloquial sense unless i'm misunderstanding the narrative around the images I can't see (and won't bother going to programming.dev to see)
