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
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

Probably longer than blahaj instance even existed lmao
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
Me, a progressive anti-tankie liberal, being baited by “minorities” during an argument
a trans person ragebaited me into admitting i'm a transphobic tit, whaaaa 🦈😭🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
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.
I love my trans comrades
mods, MODS! they made me say the slurs by pretending to be a minority!
tfw i'm in a "making shit up" competition and my opponent is a radlib
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.
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!
i literally joined hexbear because i heard how trans supportive this place is
Welcome! I did for the same reason and I love it here.
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.
"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
wtf I'm cis now
i sometimes have nightmares like this
I would continue your joke and say come join us, but you really do not want to.
The amount of bullshit involved in cisnormative straight relationships is way too damn high. I don't understand how anyone can do this. I can't as a cisgender bisexual guy.
A cis, on my Hexbear?! Wow, this site is sure starting to feel progressive and inclusive! Welcome Conrad!
I got estradiol as a bit, so I could troll the liberals
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.
I’m trans and here so their argument is invalid and I stopped reading
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.
Wow blahaj is a pretty transphobic space if they tolerate that shit.
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.
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.
Didn't we defed from Blahaj specifically because they kept accusing us of faking being queer?
And I still think it's fucking funny people would play let alone defend the mid ass game that is Hogwart's Legacy. Like damn, not only are you a shitty transphobe, but you also have complete shit tastes in games lmao
Quite literally one of the last posts on the old subreddit before 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.
transphobic by proxy
Hahaha blahaj sucks so hard.
I remember when we defederated them first because of the ableist apologia they did.
PS I love all our trans comrades
We love our trans comrades
Popped into the blahaj thread about it and...
CW: transphobia
Ally moment.
It's the doubling down that's the worst part. The misgendering honestly wouldn't be that big of a deal if they would just apologize and fix their behavior after being corrected. We get it, mistakes happen. Like in the original case that triggered this conversation the user was using a client that doesn't show our pronouns, so they defaulted to "they" instead of the user's listed "she/her". A completely understandable error. But when they get politely corrected and their response is "ugh you Hexbears getting offended is not a good look" or "actshually 'bro' is gender neutral because I say so" then fuck you you're not an ally if you turn into a reactionary the moment you get scratched.
We must roll the tanks into Blahaj and liberate them with TC69 Thought.
drats! those vitriolic hexbears made me say some slurs and advocate for some fascism!
Same shit happened with r/CTH. Everyone accused them if being transphobic when it was one of the safer non-trans-centric places on the net at the time
Remember "people of NATO"? lmao
Nothing says "I'm an ally of a thing" than going out of your way to try to erase the thing. Nice job blahaj real good trans friendly space you got going on there.
Blahaj is Swedish for “chaser”
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...
This dipshit is a trans "ally" in more of the Molotov-Ribbentrop sense.
Im glad we defederated from blahaj, they are one of the worst lemmy instances for sure, in their post about defederating programingdev most users were ok with transphobia if they keep being federated with other instances
