lemmy.world is not far left by any stretch of the imagination
Not far left, democratic far left. I’m no talking about leftist, I’m just talking about the lib left.
Don't bother with this whoreticulture account, they are just on here to pretend to be trans and then they behave like an ass to try to get people to dislike trans people or something. I know it's stupid, but you can take a look at their account history to see what they are doing. It's no wonder it's a new account, I imagine they are doing this a lot. I'm working on a little script that just auto-warns people about them.
this person is mad that I called them a terf lol
I'm not mad. I haven't called you any childish names, or did anything else that would indicate anger. That would be you and you alone, and unless you go and start editing your posts anyone can clearly see that.
I'm gonna be real, looking through your account, you seem like a bioessentialist. Potentially a terf, though one that hides it well.
Some of the things you've said are rooted in bioessentialism and come off as very backhanded which I'm assuming set off the other commenter's alarm bells. Quit the act or educate yourself from a trans positive feminist angle, whichever fits your role better.
for anyone that happens to read this and feels lost, here is a good place to start with what bioessentialism is and why it's linked to terfs.
I have nothing against trans people, I've said nothing against trans people. I didn't know of this term "bioessentialism," but thanks to you, I've just looked it up. It does not describe my views. I am 100% aware of the concept of people being genetically one way while having a different gender. There is nothing wrong with this at all. I have never said anything remotely like that.
This other commenter is not serious. They are pretending to be trans in order to make them look bad. I don't know why they are so hateful, but at this point, there really is no other explanation. There is no reason they would be so awful to someone trying to learn.
booo
eat shit
edit:
yeah i sure fucking hope you did, i linked an article.
The article didn't show up. I appreciate you introducing me to a new term. The whole point of me being here is to learn.
Thanks, I see the article now. It must have been part of the edit, so I missed it before. I appreciate you taking the time to make the link.
I think they're hiding it quite poorly lmao
