Do you think it would be possible to contact this person and ask them if they would be interested in joining a safer online space for trans people free from reddit-logo clownery?

I can dm you the post If you wanted to try

edit - looks like I missed your edit. if you want me to reach out, I could also try

I would appreciate it if you want to try. Lately I've been trying to recruit trans people who don't know about Hexbear yet, and who could definitely use a safer platform.

If a trans sub can't understand how it's even harder for non whites in the community then they have some serious blind spots.

Transgender people of color face unique challenges as gender discrimination and racism intersect

trans people of color have been the overwhelming targets of this violence. The Human Rights Campaign has recorded over 256 cases of fatal violence against trans people since 2013 in the U.S., 84% of whom were people of color.

maybe-later-kiddo haven't you heard of the tolerance paradox?

Not only do they have racism, but trans subreddits are so bad at being inclusive that they also have transphobia!

If your idea of what the trans community is like came from Reddit alone, your image of trans people would end up being harshly negative.

(I may or may not be speaking from experience as a former black non-binary Redditor who did, in fact, browse trans subreddits.)

[–] Pluto@hexbear.net 25 points 5 months ago

Damn, on its way to getting 300 upvotes!

[–] ashinadash@hexbear.net 19 points 5 months ago

Subreddit moderators, more like bootlickers.
