There is a spector haunting Lemmy, the spector of trans people that disagree with you.

Liberals on Lemmy are ridiculously fast to let fly all sorts of conspiracy theories if it means discrediting any trans people to the left of them. Worse still, is that this behaviour is reinforced by Lemmy mods, look at this ban Cowbee copped for the crime of being allegedly uncivil to this transphobe:

Every day, I'm glad for you fuckers building at least this tiny queer safespace on the internet. Death to the cis, etc.

Nah, I'd rather not do that as the weirdos on MWoG are already relatively obsessed with me and I'd rather not give them ammo for me being "drama obsessed" or something. I could have done it earlier when they perma-banned me from Political Memes for calling out the moderators on removing comments explaining how the Democrats are complicit in Palestinian genocide, but didn't for similar reasons.

I'm 100% fine if someone else wants to make a post, though, I'd just rather not do it myself.

Very mature and cool headed of you. Still shit that we need to be the bigger people.

I agree, but over time I've come to realize that as much dirt as they smear on leftists, eventually they reveal their real character, such as when they defend transphobia or

cw: transphobia from sh.itjust.works adminClaim there's a conspiracy from foreign countries to intentionally "trans the youth" into radicalization against the US Empire

Eventually these contradictions put them out of touch with their more "normal" userbase, we win when they damage themselves. Doesn't hurt to help the process along, though, which is why I'm not against anyone making a post about it if they feel so obligated.

I agree, long term, we'll win out. It just sucks to see it in the present.

Why would anyone pretend to be trans with how much shit they have to take.

See, that's the strangest part. Transphobes do post-hoc justifications to reconfirm their biases, regardless of any actual merit.

Going off what cowbee already said, I'm not sure the post would even go over well there. Yes it's world doing something terrible but it also involves an ml account and the last week has been nothing but look how bad ml is for removing me after I was being awful
