lemmy.ml, hexbear, and lemmygrad users verbally fellate contemporary and historical autocratic mass-murderers they deem to be “leftists”, most recently being Vladimir Putin, Xi Jingping, and Kim Jong Un.

They are, in reality, bitch-made invertebrates who don’t even have the arm-strength to lift their Molotov-sippy-cups out of their premium-outdoor-brand backpacks, let alone form meaningful opinions on economics, political philosophy, or geopolitical reality.

That whole 'pretending to be trans' thing always kills me. Absolutely zero sense.

They just assume that because they don't know any trans people, there's no way so many folks are trans in one place online.

There's no way the oppressed would side with the tankies, not when I performatively support your rights (and will hang over your head whenever you disagree with me)

If anything, this website is more inclined on hunting down and prosecuting the cis. They'll never catch me though acab-3

So long as we just keep our heads down and don't bother anyone, we have no reason to worry!

B... But I filed all my paperwork!

I think it's just their internal rationalization for why it's okay to misgender people they disagree with, and then if you ask them to stop that's just more evidence for them that you're trolling. catgirl-flop

Even more than that, let's actually assume for the sake of argument that in some sense, this was the case for a nonzero number of posters:

Maybe in 20 years time, there's a new word to describe some other very real type of dysphoria, and it turned out that, say, a hypothetical trans woman on here was actually a cis woman with zero gender feelings at all (there is somehow zero overlap between this hypothetical dysphoria and gender dysphoria) and only this dysphoria. She just really needed another person to talk to about her experience who could relate at all, but she felt compelled to restate things in terms of gender instead.
Maybe it turns out that, say, a hypothetical cis man on here was only dissatisfied with the cultural baggage tied to masculinity, but he ultimately needed the space to explore their gender identity and realize they felt like being a man best described him after all.
Maybe it's something else I can't think of right now.

Does any of these scenarios actually justify treating those people any differently than someone who definitely is transgender? I don't see why any reasonable person should come to that conclusion.
