Also I’m a "actual trans people with sense"™, so my opinion can’t be discarded.

damn, based

why arent the transgenders being nice to me when i say transphobic things

yeah piracy is right there if you really want to subject yourself to it

If you want to read the arguments a bunch of trans people from hexbear wrote, you can see them here. https://hexbear.net/post/1527796

Cromalin broke it down pretty extensively.

I know right? Its wild that this even came up again, but it got re-litigated because of the steam awards. Which is likely because gamers are transphobic and wanted to re-litigate it

I don't play games much, but I've been told by other transfems that cyberpunk2077 is really affirming gender wise due to how immersive the first person camera is

And yeah the rights to making games for the Harry Potter universe is valued at 3.8 billion right now I believe, so I wouldnt say its a little, its enough to influence British politics, but piracy fixes that on an individual level

doesnt matter, im specifically referring to a trans community on hexbear, you can make an account on lemmy.ml to access traa. if you look at removals the only thing we've removed is transphobia. hexbear has explicitly defed from dozens of instances because they are harbingers of transphobia and harass transgender people. there is a reason why almost half of the site is populated by trans users.

and how is 'no fascists' a bad rule?

Unfortunately that one has only one inactive mod, which makes it prone to transphobic raids. You could make an account on lemmy.ml (or hexbear itself, its one of the only instances with pronouns as a feature built in and has been very supportive of trans people and defeding transphobic instances) and access hexbear's /c/traa which is somewhere around 10x more active and has 23 mods on it. Generally we're able to remove transphobic content within 5-10 minutes of a report so that other people don't have to see it.

youre very in your own head about these ideas. perhaps you have been told these things and have not investigated yourself. you are not immune to propaganda.

The first contradiction stems from the set of terms {“Moscow”, “no fascists”, “LGBT”}, it conjures images like:

the moscow time thing is a joke, theres a lot of people that genuinely think hexbear is on putins payroll. for the record, historically the trans community has even been decried as soviet and russian infiltrators, as far back as the 50s and 60s

Videos of gay couples holding hands in the center of Moscow, getting insulted and spit on by random passerbys.

i have gone into my experience dealing with russia on hexbear in the past. im the head mod of c/traa on hexbear. i have personally engaged in (now) highly illegal acts in russia, largely to do with helping trans refugees escape to czechia and finland, draft dodging, and getting HRT to people along the border with china. you might be surprised to hear this, but the average young russian communist is very trans supportive and very helpful to the trans community at large in russia. so many have helped get trans people out of volatile areas like chechnya and donbas.

“if it moves, then we eat it” saying.

can you explain this

I’m afraid the rhetoric pattern of “neg, victimhoood, authority” is not gonna work here.

no, its just quite obvious you havent investigated, it is not 'negging', i am not giving you a compliment, and i am not manipulating you, i am simply suggesting you use your own two eyes to investigate something beyond a cursory glance. being someone with skin in the game and personal experience has nothing to do with a call to authority, i am explaining to you my history and viewpoints, which are relevant. and saying im acting like a victim makes you sound like a chud.

as you can see on our ongoing survey, which was done publicly, around half the site is trans. over half the moderation is trans. do you truly think that we're all in on putin, who labels transgender people as terrorists for existing?

are you trans yourself? im wondering what your personal experiences are
