It helps when they make me look cooler when they talk about me, haha, though I'm overdue for a break from Lemmy.ml.
It's truly depressing seeing the continuous right-wing slide of Lemmy.world. It isn't surprising, of course, but they'd rather ban people calling out transphobia for being "aggressive" than address the transphobes, and that says a lot about their moderators actual stances.
Your comment wasn't even that aggressive. It is fully within the bounds of civil discourse by their standards. You've clearly pinned them as transphobic in a way they can't even reconcile, so instead of dealing with this contradiction you've presented, they bury you. It's everything they claim places like Russia or China are about. The federation model of decentralizing services really does lead to little fiefdoms run by petty lords.
Edit: But we love our petty lords here, don't we folks!?
100%. They side with transphobes when it's Leftists calling them out, because it helps obscure the nature of their particular method of censorship. Now, censorship can be a good thing when combatting misinformation and bigotry, of course, but that's the opposite of .world's methods here.
Defederation is the most you can do to censor an entire group of people. It looks less obvious because you don't see removed comments, but it shuts out speech. Leftists are generally more up front and honest about what they censor and why, while .world and sh.itjust.works try to pretend that they don't censor at all.
Yet, they recently made that announcement about the site requiring "Civil Disagreement" in all communities. It leaves one to wonder how much of their actions are intentional, or if they truly believe they're acting in a civil and just manner.
odd that they also accused me of being "aggressive" as well when i rarely comment there; sounds coordinated.
Just read the libs’ reaction to this interaction on sh.itjust.works (TW: lots of transphobia) and sh.it’s just absolutely awful. Just and endless stream of victim-blaming and doubling down on their transphobic crap.
It’s pretty much just the top comment that’s somewhat decent (except the last paragraph). The rest of the users (including the fucking admin) have no shame at all handwaving all the bigotry away, some even saying stuff that’s way more transphobic than Yerbouti’s.
Fuck this is depressing!
On the brightside, this absolute gem came out of it (no CW needed):
"Cowbee isn’t just another tankie. He knows his theory and will use it to dazzle you with bullshit."
This has to be the greatest compliment a lib can give. "Do not trust this trickster spirit, they will use a vast knowledge ancient magicks to trick you into disagreeing with the US State Department"
I know, I kinda want to put it in my bio but I'm not that self-interested. Wanted to share it because others might find it funny like I did lol
cowbee verified only leftist on hexbear
Truth be told I kinda hate that I'm getting some degree of enioyment out of the absolute terror I seem to strike in the hearts of the MWoG weirdos, when at the same time these people are genuinely defending and fighting for their rights to not only be transphobic, but enforce that.
I’ve heard the phrase “baffle with bullshit” before but never “dazzle with bullshit”
I know, it's more flattering and gives me pizazz
Abbreviate shitjustworks and you immediately realise why there is absolutely no reason engaging with anyone on that particular lemmy. The abbreviation is not an accident.
You mean SJW? Is that really the origin of that name? Wow.
(also, who the fuck says “biological men” in the transgender context, its called transgender women)
Conservatives and other right wing that’s who. That’s why you hear tankie leadership saying it.
They really love just making shit up and expect no one to check, don't they?
Why stop when it’s still working fine?
The same people: "what do you mean blue maga, definition? Debatemedebatemedebatemedebateme"
Same admin who was butthurt over people hating on in a different thread
If Hexbear is transphobic then I'm J.K. Rowling 😭
This just in: Commenter on Hexbear community /c/slop claims to be Rowling herself, world-renowned TERF, and doesn't get her comment removed, thus showing that rule 4 is just for show /s
I'm finding that a lot of irl liberal spaces have been weird about transphobia this past year. I'm connecting the dots with his thread, civility is just "I'm transphobic but I'm not gonna say it".
they always have been. i've been out as nonbinary since 2017 and i've had just as many weird libs be transphobic to me as conservatives. they just go about it differently.
The meanwhile on grad thread about this is even worse, CW transphobia:
spoiler
"China and Russia are doing rainbow imperialism on the west" is a hell of a take. Really shows that the only thing blue MAGA doesn't like about MAGA is that they were told to hate Trump first.
"If we treat you like a human being, the Russians win somehow."
"how can there be 50% trans people that's so unrealistic"
That part was especially baffling. Like, you're getting accused of transphobia and are defending it, and you wonder why trans people flock to explicitly trans-positive instances? Do they not see the connection there, that perhaps the queer side may indeed have a point?
Yep, imaqtpie tried to tell me Hexbear is "more bigoted" yet is peddling alt-right conspiracy theories that
cw: transphobia
Foreign nations are "transing" the youth.
Unsurprising from the instance that maintains MWoG and NCD.
"How dare those trans people cause their own transphobia instead of just sucking it up so we can maintain decorum with people who violently fantasize about hurting them!"
If it's such a small, niche issue, then why the fuck can't you just tell reactionaries to fuck off?
Peaked back into that thread, a gem: (no CW needed)
"Cowbee isn’t just another tankie. He knows his theory and will use it to dazzle you with bullshit."
Lmao
huge thanks to Xi Jinping for personally coming to every trans girl's computer, installing Fallout New Vegas or Victoria 3, and watching the dominos fall in place. We owe him a massive debt for pushing Western civilization forward, we wouldn't have 100 Gecs or the People's Joker without him.
The rival nation state's devious, psychological warfare tactics of... helping people realize who they really are? Makes it sound like your rivals are the good guys.
I think everyone forgots the secret program of Russia and China to forcetrans people. I had tens of people in my city growing up report Putin AND Xi Jinping coming over and injecting them will a new set of hormones. That is what happened to me too. I was talking to a friend online about the US political system being deeply transphobic and bigoted, and I heard the door being slammed on. I walked over because I thought it was the humble US police accidentally coming in to shoot me, then the door caved in. From the dust I see the silloettes of Xi Jinping, and Putin. They rush in, with Putin tackling me, and Xi injecting me. I scream in agony. I am injected with 2.5 mg of Estradiol cypionate in oil. Xi activates my now biological codephrase to be a communist agent, and tells me to repeat this injection weekly. Since then, every week on the dot, I have received 2.5 mg to inject myself with. They even find me when I'm traveling. I took a day off and visited my now girlfriend's house (she's also the leader of my local CCP chapter in my area (power dynamics)), and forgot to take my weekly injection. As I arrived to the entrance to the apartment building, who else was standing there, but Xi Jinping. I tried to run away, but it felt as if time had been frozen, and I couldn't move. He spoke some words in Mandarin I couldn't understand, and injected me with my hormones from 20 feet away. Suddently, he's gone. Time starts flowing as normal. Did I hallucinate all that? I do not know. I just continue on to meet my girlfriend.
I got about 4 sentences in and realized I was just writing fan fiction at this point but its funny to me so I had to commit
this is a certified trans tankie banger
Wasn't iamaqtpie the one who was complaining about anti-american bias earlier this week?
That guy is just an up-front chud
Also claimed Hexbear is more bigoted than sjw on the original thread I got banned from, so especially goofy.
Congrats, Cowbee, you've won a week's vacation from AskLemmy on .world!
Honestly, better for my mental health to not see constant unaddressed bigotry.
Now this is the stuff that should be on dbos power tripping bastards comm, not people spamming they got banned from ml for being a shit head.
@gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com and @Leate_Wonceslace@lemmy.dbzer0.com are making transphobic comments in that post, yet no action on divionsbyzer0?
Not surprising given that one of the admins of that instance made anti-GSM comments
My investment on being anti federation keeps paying dividends
