I’ve had this conversation! This is where a lot of tranaphobia came out of me. Like “yeah I wanna be a girl, but not trans - trans people are freaks. I’m not like them.” Fortunately, trans people have very good representation now.
I was really lucky to have met so many great trans people at the perfect times… And it didn’t change much for me. It was, and still is, about accepting myself. So many conversations about it, yet none led to me doing anything about knowing I’m trans.
This rules list is overwhelming. Some of these things I haven’t heard of or can’t think of an example of.
What is good faith discussion about ideology, but no sectarianism? Like I can be a… M & M’s fan and you a Skittles fan, and we both want a world that supports more Candy, but I can’t say you’re wrong and I can’t say when we disagree it will result in bad candy being in charge?
What are the consequences for bad behavior? Am I gonna have my comment removed? Will that removal include an explanation? Will I be banned?
What is a historically classified socialist country and why can’t I say they are wrong? That sounds like a highly academic discussion to me.
wikipedia isn’t a valid source
Wikipedia is a great source though, 99% of the time the text on wikipedia sums up what’s in several sources linked below. So now I could go to wikipedia and the writer could have made a decision based on 3 different slightly conflicting sources, I pick the first one - now my argument seems stronger but it might be missing extra context.
A lot of the time I would rather someone link me to Wikipedia than Corporate News (CNN, NBC).
Oh okay so we can have fun on the weekends when the normies are off from work 😋 neato, sounds like a board designed to be a headache 5 days of the week.
What do I even post here, theory? I don’t care much about theory.
What is this community aimed at accomplishing?
Is this true?
I’m gonna be pretty! 😊
What flavor is it OP? I hope its mint chocolate chip
Yeah proton does this with everything, its fucking wild.
The onlie trans community uses y’all a lot. And howdy and haiii :3
Exactly! Haha I’m glad for you. That’s really sweet.
Wish this was my experience, just reading silly haha funny egg memes as a “cis male” until I started to understand why I relate It is praxis to make the absolute funniest egg memes possible. Increase the surface area of the net to catch all reppers, closeted, and confused so they can put 2 and 2 together.
All the ones that were into that shit were fucking boring and awful to me.
