Dragon Rider (drag)

.world has come under a lot of fire for being centrist and having anti-violence policies. 196 actually moved from blahaj to world, and most of the users said they wouldn’t be going with it, because they don’t agree with the aforementioned policies.

This is great. Dull men’s club is a great community and it doesn’t deserve to be lumped in with the rest of .world.

Ground News makes you think American conservatives are centrists.

MBFC is bad. It supports the American overton window, which is, you know, now openly fascist.

No.

You chose a bad analogy because you don’t understand. That’s what’s going on here. You think the overton window isn’t culturally relative

Directions do not have an absolute reference point. There is no center of the universe. Numbers do. That’s why numbers aren’t like directions. Don’t use numbers as an example when numbers have something directions don’t.

No it’s not. It can be relative to anywhere. If drag’s on the left side of a room, then the center of the room is to the right.

Spacetime is relative. If we’re putting directions on politics, then politics has to be relative too.

Ew threads

Drag has been misgendered (The he/him kind), harassed, and banned from communities on .world for using neopronouns. The admins don’t care and do nothing.

Blahaj still federates with .world, which as you said in your previous comment is a problem.

Blahaj also struggles with an anti-drama moderation stance, which is harmful to queer people. “Don’t rock the boat” is a saying that privileges the majority.

Yeah, it’s full of tankies and transphobes.

Lemmy is too right wing to serve as a good Reddit replacement. The queer communities on Reddit don’t want to move here because their members will be harassed.

Drag has a friend who got instance banned on first comment lmao

Right, you’re not a troll, you just act exactly like one. You sow suspicion and conflict in the queer community and refuse to let your child use their chosen pronouns because you’re such a huge ally.

You know, drag realised something a while ago.

Any transphobic troll, who thinks drag is one of their own, would want to “expose” drag. They would want to erode the trans community’s trust in trans people. They’d want the public to believe that neopronoun users are trolls. They’d think drag wants it too. They’d engage in kayfabe - a fake fight, a manufactured drama, to make the public distrust trans people.

So drag believes you’re being quite honest when you say you think drag is a troll. And you want to “help” drag, you want to finish the “con”. You don’t want the community to accept people like drag and every other queer identity. You want to start a fight and convince the community to turn against ourselves.

This is a fake fight. You think you’re on drag’s side.

Well it’s only fair, since drag asked if you’d like power mods and transphobes to be removed from Lemmy, and you didn’t answer.

If it’s true that you avoid people you don’t like, then perhaps drag was wrong to think you didn’t like drag. Drag has in the past advised you to block drag, and it seems you’ve decided not to. Drag is flattered. Perhaps you’ve decided to respect the “they” part of your child’s she/they pronouns. If so, you’re very welcome for the push. Drag has always believed that hearing the experiences of trans people makes others more likely to respect differences in gender presentation.

As drag said, the technology is great. Drag believes in the mission of the Fediverse. It’s just that a lot of it is infested with power mods and transphobes. If we could get rid of that sort of person, this space would be much better, wouldn’t you agree?
