Diva (she/her)

Explain how I’m sounding racist? (not getting your ‘joke’ specific to France and Belgium about how people self delete isn’t racism)

You sound like you have a chip on your shoulder and have already demonstrated yourself to be a prolific liar so I don’t have any reason to take you seriously.

Waiting on the explanation on how my pointing out that your behavior (a cis guy gatekeeping who is trans or not based on your opinion of them) is transphobic is actually transphobia on my part too.

lmao of course you’re the type of person to also handwring about a scumbag CEO getting shot. As you were, officer 🫡

For the schismatics in the room Christmas is in January 😔

I’ll be damned before bending the knee to the king of Rome!

cis man declares himself arbiter of trans-ness based on his opinion of them.

Cool. I am clearly just playing the victim and bullying you by pointing out the transphobic shit you’re doing.

I’m sorry what evidence lol?

I posted right at the start of our exchange. Hexbear is majority non-cis as of a poll they did months back- and it wasn’t the first one, I checked. They instructed cis people to fill it out too, and considering how active /c/traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns and the various matrix chats are, I have no reason to think it was somehow staged.

Now, if some of the chapo bros recently became trans, or if some trans people decided to join their community, I’m more then happy for them, I couldn’t care less. But I have to admit I’m pretty curious about how trans people can happily coexist with tankies who cheer for Putin (an anti-lgbtq+ dictator and murderer) and let Jeffrey Epstein’s closest friend get elected because they wanted to “own the libs”.

The democrats ate shit so hard they lost the popular vote by a bigger margin than all of the other votes combined, you clearly have a chip on your shoulder about them making fun of those french settlers. I still don’t think it’s a particularly good excuse for your behavior, you just seem like a creep who’s seriously projecting with all of those comments about ‘superiority complex’.

Also the trans person in my life has a message for you “Fuck off Diva, I don’t need your advice and stop pretending to represent my community you douche”. His words not mine, but I provided the translation.

I most certainly did not offer any advice to the trans people in your life. His comment is a reflection of your ability to twist the truth. Anyone can read my comment, it’s right here

‘For the sake of any trans people in your life I’d hope you do some introspection’

You seem to need help with translation, here’s the subtext:

If you think it’s okay as a cis man to be declaring who is and isn’t trans based on your petty podcast grievances and your (poor) ability to parse satire, I would hope you rethink your actions in the future so that you don’t do that in the outside world too.

I didn’t give any advice to anyone, certainly not him. That was for you, and it was in earnest. You seem like an absolute creep and I hope you find a way to stop for everyone else’s sake.

You said it’s 95% white dudes, and are doubling down in the face of evidence that it’s clearly not. That’s being incredibly dismissive of the trans people on there, and just makes it clear you want to be able to gatekeep other peoples genders whenever you have an axe to grind. For the sake of any trans people in your life I’d hope you do some introspection, but I’m not going to hold my breath.

And if you want to exist in a bubble. Then by all means please do. But don’t admonish other people for not doing so. Ignoring politics and being ignorant of politics is in large part how so many of the problems we have today were created. People left alone at the levers of power who should never have had any business. All because people were content and ignorant.

Just wanted to chime in that I agree with this, and frankly that’s why I value keeping an eye on what the narrative that both sides have been operating by. I don’t see how any of the problems we face are served by selective ignorance.

Hell lemmygrad and hexbear weren’t banned because of their politics. They were banned because of their behavior. Anyone who behaved like so many of them did should have been banned regardless of politics.

To say they weren’t banned for their politics but instead their behavior is a bit misleading in terms the sequence of events. The .world defederation was preemptive as near as I can tell- Hexbear turned on federation but before they federated with anyone, .world had already defederated. The citations in the .world defed thread were all pre-federation threads of people being hyped to connect to more people. Even if people were saying they wanted to ‘bully libs’, that just reads to me like people talking shit because as far as I can tell the hexbears never made a single post anywhere on .world.

The thread in question cited several threads, it’s a bit dramatic in places, but also explicitly instructing people not to break rules- instructed not to even register accounts for trolling. Standard things to be aware of in posting on a federated instance even if they are being dramatic or saying they’re propagandists- there’s plenty of normal people there from what I’ve observed this last year. If the points they outlined in that post are to be their party line then at least they’re just stating it right there so you know what their angle is going to be.

I feel like the case that it was not political censorship would be stronger if the whole thing had been less vibes based from the start.

4chan level bigotry, shocking.

Just editing this in to address the question, yes it is. That’s just being transphobic. If they say they’re trans they’re trans. You do not get to dictate what someone else’s gender is just because you disagree with their politics or because a podcast insulted French Canadians.

You asked for the context, click on the spoiler tag if you want to see the removed comment, here’s another link

I really don’t see how taking a shot at hexbear as being ‘95% guys’ is relevant, or anything other than being intentionally transphobic, but I look forward to your explanation.

Also I don’t care about shittalking chapo lol, pretty much every time I’ve listened to them (extremely infrequent occurrence) I’ve been annoyed by something.

This the probably the most told joke about French people ever, it was invented by Belgium.

I’m not familiar with it, and I doubt many other people reading it got that either. It’s a little ironic that you’re this bent out of shape when other people don’t get your joke but at the same time can’t give other people the same deference.

I still think removing the homophobic comment -ironic or otherwise- was the right move, however you going into months-old threads to harass them about your current beef was also something begging for moderation.

I still haven’t seen my so-called transphobic comment, why don’t you just quote it?

I have, twice now, are you being intentionally obtuse? click on the spoiler tag if you want to see.

part 2:

CW self harm, transphobia

Bullshit. Why don’t you show the context?

Oh here’s the context for the transphobic comment too:

Worth noting all of this is in the public modlog, anyone can look it up

I agree that ‘ironic’ homophobia is still homophobia, and should be removed, just like ‘ironic’ misogyny and transphobia.

Here’s the transphobic part of the post of yours - the same one in the post above

Hexbear has done many surveys at this point of the gender of its users (most recent one linked here) As of this last one cis people are in the minority, I don’t know why you would insert a comment like that if you weren’t trying to be transphobic.

The only bans I saw on your account were for being needlessly hostile- and they look like they all were extremely short.

Re: the homophobic comments, in your posts that got removed you were hostile for what looks to me like your misinterpreting a bad attempt at a bad joke (not even from .ml user, but .ee), though you didn’t tell them to kys that time at least. You then went through the their profile responding to months old posts to try to continue things, again being needlessly hostile- if I had to venture a guess that was more of the reason for your ban 5 months ago. Plenty of other instances will also temp ban for behavior like that.

and then 8 months ago you dropped this gem: CW self harm, transphobia

The accusations of toxicity seem to be projection.

Along with racism, bigotry and transphobia sprinkled in.

Bold words, but I run into way more bigotry and racism while/after posting on .world vs posting in .ml spaces.

Nutomic is a shithead for failing to address his transphobia, if he ever posts in /c/transgender I’ll ban him myself.

authoritarianism/dictatorship with a communism mask like the CCP or Russia.

Russia is not pretending to be communist, wtf are you on? do you mean USSR? if anything I’ve run into way more cutting critiques of existing/historical socialist states among actual communists in these spaces as opposed to carnival barkers with a tenuous grasp on history.

The racism allegations also kind of sound like projection in this context considering on of the main controversies I’ve seen about bans here are for banning people being weirdly racist and choosing to die on the hill of depicting the president of China as a yellow cartoon animal.

Most addicted city (over 100k visits total) Eglin Air Force Base, when I see someone going out of their way to be a cop about communists on the Internet it just makes me think you must get paid to be one IRL and just can’t shut it off.

anything you say officer 🫡

Supporting a political party that has been participating in a genocide is supporting genocide, the Democrats have been a genocidal regime worse than any in my lifetime

Trying to run a third party is the only viable reformist track- the democratic party is totally unresponsive to reform attempts- recall how Obama personally intervened to stop that last time. He even dismantled his own electoral apparatuses after his first run.

The endpoint of the lesser evilism voting is that you’re browbeating people to not protest vote and instead vote for one of the two parties, both promising more genocide, one of which is directly implicated in an entire year of it so far.

To any outside observer ( the people you’re trying to sway) it still looks like you support them and everything they’ve done.
