After years of reddit/twitter/facebook propping up fascism/bigotry with algorithms & bots I’m honestly surprised and relieved to be in an online space that clearly rejects their ideology.
They can have reddit/facebook/twitter. AFAIC the only way to reach some of these people is to leave them alone long enough to realize on their own.
Lemmy.world admins are doing an amazing job dealing with everything. Their recent decision to defederate from exploding heads (or whatever its called) really goes to show that they’re in it for the right reasons.
There hasn’t been a shift in conservatism. There has, however, been a shift in the left’s labeling of it.
Right: “don’t chop off the penis of children”
Left’s response: “OMG you’re literally commuting genocide to trans people!!!”
Yeah, no. Not buying it. And banning anything you disagree with in the guise of “anti-fascism” is just the Orwellian icing on the cake.
Aaaand you are fucking lying.
Yeah tbh trans discussion isn’t even my space so I’m not even going to get involved. I just don’t want to have an opinion of others lives or belief systems in this case.
Personally, my only gripe really is that I feel that male bisexuality should be more accepted. Not directed at anyone in particular.
That’s it really.
Cool. Glad you have an opinion. Isn’t it great that you’re allowed to express it civilly without a horde of intolerant losers trying to censor you for it?
Just by saying that the left “wants to chop of children’s penis” you are spreading misinformation.
No, the take is this: if someone feels like they are born in the wrong body shouldn’t they be free to do whatever makes them feel better? Should they not be provided with all the mental and physical help to make a decision whatever that would be?
Ps not everyone is American and those US takes which are “slightly to the right” for you are Hella-right to a lot of us.
What about hermaphrodites where ambiguous genitalia could be damaging to their long-term health?
IIRC, removal of the inappropriate penis (external genitalia) is the preferred choice in today’s medial science for fixing 46 XX DSD. Which is a pretty simple case of internal-organs are female, the child identifies as a female, but for various mutation/birth defect reasons, she was born with a penis (Completely non-functioning mind you, as all the internal parts are female).
