True. There's a picture of me at five years old playing dawn of war

Is there a way to block hexbear in c/main@sh.itjust.works
[–] Zirconium@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Don't listen to hexbear users when they say they "defend themselves" from homophobia and transphobia. One user thought the admin of Blahaj.zone was being transphobic for not allowing politics in every community. Hexbear users will literally just lie about the repamant amount of homophobia and transphobia to justify their existence here.

I'm be honest there's all this debate about defederation but not much people having discussions on politics, society and systems of power.

How to discuss trans issues to uneducated people? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Hi, I have a transmasc boyfriend and am part of the LGBTQ+ alliance. However I started my first year of college and encountered uneducated men who just did not believe that trans people had their rights under attack. One of my friends even told my trans woman friend that she had more rights than him. How or what can you do to help others become educated without "debating trans existence" or starting an argument? Thank you.

Weren't there studies done on how deplatforming Nazi communities help deradicalize vulnerable people. Also its good to keep in mind that people who dont think they are wrong don't care to hear other people out. They would rather call you slurs than admit being wrong. You can't help someone who doesnt want help unfortunately. I saw a good video by "that dang dad" on if the left neglects "wbite cis men." And I think contrapoints is a good resource for helping people deradicalize.

Especially since the supreme court never sides with the few when it has the opportunity to grow a spine. Ie: "Jim Crow", "slavery"", internment camps", etc

Judical branch is in place to protect the rights of the few and Constitution so it plays a role. The issue is that the justices defend the powerful rather then thepeoples.
