If someone claims something happened on the fediverse without providing a link, they're lying.

Evidence or GTFO.

  • "Have you considered that the people we're genociding might be kinda problematic?"

  • They called Kamala a communist too. It doesn't fucking matter, they'll say it about anyone, you can't be afraid of it.

  • and a senator is a LONG way off from the leader of the country.

    I love how this insanity is always what y'all turn to when confronted with direct evidence that you're wrong. The guy who determines who to vote for exclusively based on gender, but only with the presidency, and is perfectly fine with evaluating women fairly in all other top government positions.

    It's just a way to arbitrarily limit the dataset to like two points in order to draw whatever conclusion you want from it. It's difficult to imagine any possible world in which we have stronger evidence that Harris did not lose because of sexism than the one we live in.

    But I understand that, as I said, it's not about reason but fulfilling a psychological and rhetorical need. You're not fooling me with this, "Actually, I'm super critical of Harris" in one breath and "she's 100% my ideal pick" in another, it's just a motte and bailey.

  • Zionism, obviously. But if course, anyone who criticizes Israel or it's supporters must be a secret right-winger or foreign agent, nobody could possibly be legitimately bothered by an apartheid state doing genocide.

  • Three of the seven swing states Harris lost elected female senators. This is just a bullshit excuse to excuse Harris's shitty campaign, because "the Democratic party can never fail, it can only be failed"

  • Really, because I was responded negatively to when I was just calling out misgendering.

  • You're telling me that picture "takes up too much screen space?"

    I think y'all are out of your minds but you do you ig.

    Still doesn't excuse or explain responding negatively to correcting misgendering.

  • size of the photo and the dual display name and @ takes up a lot of screen space

    Respectfully disagree

  • It's the same question phrased differently. I'd imagine a significant portion of the "right amount" answers don't have strong feelings either way.

    Regardless, I wouldn't really consider 62% "overwhelming," but I guess that"s subjective.

  • Which brings me back to the question I've been trying to get an answer to as to why someone would go out of their way to install an app that reduces the websites functionality.

    In any case, the proper response should be, "oops, it was a mistake, thanks for letting me know" and not fighting me on it or downvoting.

  • Defending misgendering and criticizing people for calling it out is in no way better than doing it yourself. I don't know why libs on here always play this, "Um, actually, I didn't say that, I just defended someone else saying it," bullshit. I do not care.

  • If you go around misgendering people, then no, we are not, and I'm in fact quite proud to not be "nice" about that.

    Let me put it to you this way. If I see someone with a clearly female profile pic and display name getting called masculine terms, I'm going to aggressively call that shit out. So you can either:

    1. Stop using a dumb app that removes your ability to see shit
    2. Don't default to masculine terms for anonymous users
    3. Don't get upset when you are called out for misgendering, just own up to it
    4. Block me because you want to go around misgendering people and not getting called on it.
  • Not my fault you choose to use it and then are ignorant of stuff everyone else can see. Make better choices.

  • Or seeing display names.

  • You know you have no proof of transphobia occurring here.

    That's where you're wrong, the proof is in the fact that you're still fighting me over calling out misgendering even now. You could've backed down at any time.

    Not surprised a transphobe is blocking someone for calling out transphobia.

  • Then, genuine question, why do you use them?

  • And I've explained that defending misgendering is not just "a disagreement."
