        I never know if i should be more repulsed by the sheer amount of transphobia in that kind of comments or just completely baffled by how ignorant and clueless these people are. First time i saw that in the wild, it was by some guy who thought that it’s suspicious when his replies include pronouns like, i shit you not, he / him, she / her, they / them and any / undecided. Made him think we’re Russian bots with pronouns set to shuffle. Like mfer have you been living under a rock, there wasn’t even a single neopronoun or she / it catgirl in there! Any irl trans meetup i’ve even been to had a wider pronoun selection than that. When other users pressed him on that, he admitted that he had never talked to a trans person in his life, which is probably better for all the trans people he could run into.

        even though socialism is a strong undercurrent in the trans community since stonewall, and there was even a book written about it by leslie feinberg in the 90s?

    Uncritical support to our megabillionaire tankie overlords who are apparently PAYING Lemmy admins across the Fediverse to keep mention of our communism quiet. SHUSH EVERYONE IT’S A SECRET.

    a lot of Lemmy admins are actually on the take from dumbass tankies. Actually the two Lemmy devs are tankies too, or so the word on the street says. No one wants to even consider that, though.

    I was called a bigot by 7 or 8 different people because I dared to suggest that when someone finishes transitioning, they are no longer trans.

    Lol bruh that is bigoted, it reinforces the gender binary. Dude was so confident about this they responded to multiple comments with this.

      Not only does it reinforce the gender binary, its also is a transmedicalist reactionary take that trans people all need to become indistinguishable from cis people to become “cured of gender dysphoria.”

      Nobody called them out about this immediately in that thread because it fit the “evil alt right alt left ultra tankie authoritarian ruzzian CCP teenage hexbear conformist” narrative.

      I say this person and yeah, this is one of the most wildly bigoted takes masquerading as pro-trans I’ve ever seen. Absolute truscum teansmedicalist garbage. Non-binary erasure. If I were of less sound mind I’d go make an account on that instance and ask if they have any clue what a gender fluid person is, or genderqueer, or asexual.

      Finish transitioning? Who even decides that? When they’re cis passing? And this person is completely unchallenged in that thread. Over here they’d be ripped apart and probably banned. Is this why these liberal shitheads think we’re so aggressive? They’re so used to spouting off transphobia and getting no pushback on it.

    Ever wanted to be talked down to by a 14 year old alt-right sociopath who pretends to support lgbt so they can stealthily insult liberals and blame western whites for how China is?

    holy fuck I laughed out loud at this outside by myself at ten to 1am … I didnt know what hexbear was, soooo, I reported a post for saying that anyone who ever supports a democratic candidate in america needs to be hit by a truck, and that violence needs to befall them, so the mod I reported it to posted my username and announced I had reported it in a comment to that post. people then piled on saying how I was a hypocrite and deserved violence brought against me, because violence has been done by cops agains homeless and trans people. also, that all I care about is getting brunch

    lmao these people are so willfully ignorant it’s amazing.

      What even is the alt-right anyway? To me it feels like a term that was created by libs a decade ago to just describe fascism.

        I feel like it cropped up around 2016 to describe the people who held the exact same beliefs as every elected republican but were actually honest about their beliefs instead of starting every sentence with “I’m not racist buuuttt…”

        Have to differentiate them from liberal darlings like the fucking Rodney’s, McCains, and goddamn Cheyneys.

        It was definitely created by fascists, but it was equally useful to libs and “normal” conservatives to pretend that there’s some kind of distinction between fascists and mainstream political figures. It was only ever a branding exercise, but now it doesn’t even nominally refer to a distinct faction. Anyone who takes it seriously isn’t paying attention.

      so the mod I reported it to posted my username and announced I had reported it in a comment to that post.

      I don’t remember doing that, have other mods started to do the thing too?

      Edit: I got the answer, it was zooms who named and shamed that clown

  • when someone finishes transition, they are no longer trans

    For anyone who isn’t sure how to explain why this is wrong, here’s what I came up with:

    1. It’s better to think of transition progress in terms of how often you are content vs whether or not you’ve achieved some completed state.
    2. Transitioning does not retroactively fix your AGAB being wrong and all the harm that comes with that. It does not negate the experience of needing to transition in the first place.
    3. There’s a difference between being “cis-passing” in most of your interactions with cis people and being mostly-content with your transition. These stages usually happen at different times if they both happen at all and the OP’s comment feels like it’s prioritizing cis people’s perception of “passing” over trans people’s contentedness.

        It actually maintained the original concept that working in an office sucks instead of thebus version which took about 1 season to start glorifying office work as a bunch of quirky people doing pranks on each other.

    Ha ha ha HA! You fake trans Hexbear ruZZian bots are all PATHETIC RUBES compared to my grand scheme! I raised a transmasc son from INFANCY in order to infiltrate federated Lemmy instances!

    It’s all just an extended bit! I’ll probably tell him midway through HRT, for comedy value!
