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

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

Removed by mod

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?

Removed by mod

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.

Idk about that, I don’t experience this on any other instance

Youd have to look from an alternate instance that can see blahaj’s stuff afaik. Sometimes the whole thread can have distressing material in it, I figure thats part of it, though being able to turn it on and off seems more ideal

Are you looking at those instances from blahaj? If so it would still happen

Nah its specifically some sort of tool the admins or mods use for this instance and its a little buggy. You can respond even though the thread is hidden because technically those comments werent deleted.

Pretty sure its because this instance purges the whole comment chain below a comment when a comment is removed. Afaik this isnt typical behavior, most instances have a ‘comment removed by mod’ and shows the rest of the thread. Those comments arent technically removed, you can see them in people’s profiles and in search results, so I assume its a quick mod to this server.

nah, sis is a word. real dudebro moment

Also, I’m not a bro

And he responded

Sorry, they really aren’t prominently displayed everywhere. And getting offended by it really isn’t helping your case here.

A sorry was enough, doubling down and complaining about trans people being offended is transphobia

Ok, all of those are trans people responding to someone who misgendered a user and used transphobic talking points? You’re allowed to be angry and make personal attacks against transphobes, transphobia itself is a personal attack against all trans people

we just really like shorks

What do you mean by this, can you cite a specific example in the thread? Trans people are allowed to be mad when encountering transphobia.

This is transphobic, almost all the people in that thread that are responding are trans, and as you can see by this thread and the other thread, the trans people on this site agree with the ones on hexbear on this issue

Trans people have a right to call out transphobia
