Also accuses us of getting "offended at anyone, for any reason." Literally indistinguishable from a chud.

Accusing our trans users of not actually being trans is some mega transphobia

Also we've been a trans space for waaay longer then we've been federated for, sooooo

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 62 points 6 months ago

Probably longer than blahaj instance even existed lmao

[-] VILenin@hexbear.net 84 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

We are 2.5 years older than 95% of all the Reddit clone instances, yet they have the audacity to moan about us “ruining their communities” or whatever.

Like, you’re the one that barged in like you owned the place and took a hot steaming shit in the living room

wow it's so cool that blahaj harbors people like that. Love getting my fucking gender erased by people wrapped in trans flags hitler-detector

[-] Cromalin@hexbear.net 82 points 6 months ago

this definitely isn't more or less the exact argument transphobes make to try and take our rights away but with an extra level of online poisioning

[-] sharedburdens@hexbear.net 81 points 6 months ago

It's literally that, it's so fucking obvious I don't understand how someone can say something like that on that instance and not catch a ban. Turning a blind eye is a common reflex for libs.

The intense irony of a user joining a specifically trans safe space instance and then shouting about how trans people they don't like are just pretending is just upsetting.

squidward-nervous tfw i'm in a "making shit up" competition and my opponent is a radlib

[-] aaaaaaadjsf@hexbear.net 67 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

The funniest part is is when they make shit up about right wingers. Right wing politicians are usually so cartoonishly evil that there is no need to make up stuff about them, yet the radlibs do it anyways. See Russiagate as an example.

The fact this person uses the word "whiteknight" tells me they're a right wing shit bag agitator. They're the only fuckos that use the word, typically alongside outdated bangers like "snowflake" and "sjw" but this one is trying (and failing) to mask.

Will blahaj recognise that and do anything about it? Fuck no they won't, because anticommunism is more important to them than trans people even if it means fascising online spaces.

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 59 points 6 months ago

"Simp" usurped whiteknight years ago as the right wing word for respecting people, this one must be so noxious that they had no friends to update them on it

cool! love to be accused of pretending to be trans, something that definitely isn't mostly leveraged against trans women to accuse them of just being men trying to enter women's spaces!

[-] DamarcusArt@lemmygrad.ml 78 points 6 months ago

Claims hexbears get offended by anyone for any reason. Is also deeply offended by hexbear just existing even though they defederated months ago and don't see any hexbear posts anymore.

Yep. Seems like a reasonable person that is saying reasonable things.

They do this there a lot, and it just makes me sad for them because it indicates a complete detachment from real life trans community.

Like, if you're moving within the community irl, you're gonna meet a lot trans people who will fall into all kinds of buckets. Radlibs with extra padding on all the edges, toocute girl who's going to tell you about juche, prepper libertarian-coded people, self-loathers who closed their tttt tab before leaving the house, crusty polycule commune folks, tonnnns of people 196ers would call "tankies", and so on and so on.

I don't like the blahaj vibe, but I understand who in my community hangs out there. Any poster who can't even conceptualize who is posting here on hexbear, and have to propose that it's all fake, just doesn't have contact with any real life community. I think you'd have to be cut off entirely, except for some insular online spaces. Which it's more sad than anything else.

This shit annoys me more than the usual transphobia from chuds. I'd like one of those so called "ally" lib fuckheads to try and say that to my face. If they want to erase my gender I'll erase their face.

I guess the crying myself to sleep and the literal heartache I get isn't because of what I see in the mirror! And the upheaval of my well established life is for funzies. Brb, gotta go tell my therapist that she diagnosed me wrong too.

If this jackass ever reads this thread - log off and rethink your life.

[-] SnowySkyes@hexbear.net 73 points 6 months ago

Whoa whoa whoa, hold up. They're willing to invalidate the fact that I'm trans simply because I'm from this site? People seriously need to grow the fuck up and touch grass. Jesus fucking christ, get a life, kid.

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 71 points 6 months ago

Quite literally one of the last posts on the old subreddit before reddit-logo pulled the plug on us was a heartfelt thank you from a trans person for being a place that was open and welcoming to them.

Just some food for thought.

Didn't we defed from Blahaj specifically because they kept accusing us of faking being queer?

It was the open ableism from one of their mods iirc

[-] sovietknuckles@hexbear.net 71 points 6 months ago

As well as defense of chasers

Due to multiple factors, such as unaddressed ableist removals from the /c/196 moderators, defense of chasers, no-quarter rules regarding our users, leakage of good-faith DMs from our admin team, and a general lack of initiative to punish these behaviors, [...]

Transphobia is when you call out chasers for being chasers and weird objectifying weirdos.

Transphobia is having 3 trans comms and required pronouns so everyone knows how committed to the bit Hexbear is.

honestly wish that i could say something funny about this but it just makes me fucking sick. these people are literally off in their own worlds after defederation making shit up about me and about my trans comrades and absolutely invalidating our experiences. and like, I know I'm not adding anything here, we all know what this is and me saying it directly isn't new information but i really, genuinely find it distressing.

how fucking dare they, honestly.

i have never felt more welcomed and at home on any other place on the internet, or hell in real life even. i've never felt more seen than i do here. and if it's not someone else's cup of tea then fine, I can respect that, but don't go posting to the world that i and we aren't "really trans". i would never do that to them.

sorry for an uninteresting comment. this one just really got to me...

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
