I'm not gonna lie it felt good just to be able to tell a couple of those fucks to get out. Like here in the UK we have a horrendous transphobia problem in the media and I'm so used to seeing the Reasonable Discussions that boil my blood. It was nice to be able to just say no, we're not having that discussion here, it's not up for debate, gently caress off. 'oh so I'm not allowed to voice my opinion here?' no you aren't, gently caress off

The freaking UK man. I got offered up an article that was like "Europe is looking at Canada as an example of what NOT to do!" and I'm like "yeah no doubt we hosed up a lot of poo poo let's see what they have to say" and the article was just complaining about how draconian canada is for allowing they/them pronouns and just pronouns in general. Parasite Eve cannot reduce us all to a pile of goop soon enough!!!

As a woman I can understand her points, and I'm not exactly all up in her business or how far crazy she may be, but I would love for trans rights to exist but maybe while achieving that goal don't water down and wreck havoc over what it means to be a woman to get there.

It's a crazy world and no thread can be safe from the realities of social issues, even when picking on terrible video games. :(

Namaste friend. <3

hello there, first of all its a shame what happened to our titanic. someone said 1 thing that not everyone can agree to 100% > ban. i was a bit shocked honestly.
then someone else says: "i thought she was such a good poster and then she says this? how could i be so wrong?"

well, if you think that a friend is only a friend if they agree with you 100% of the time, then maybe clone yourself?
or join the borg collective?

i might get banned and yes gimme the banhammer why not.
titanic was/is a cool person. she is a ship godammit! i'm a robot. what do we know.

anyway...cig should just get rid of quantum travel, that gives em some time to build systems while commandos travel at sublightspeed.

Well seeing as the thread's gone to poo poo...

I don't agree with Titanic's position. But I understand that some women who've been victims of sexual assault, in particular, are going to feel that way regardless. Titanic felt safe enough in the thread once to discuss her own experiences in that area.

In that light this dog pile looks all kinds of crap to be honest. Her post wasn't worded with hate. But it may well have come from a place of fear. That kind of transphobia.

If this was a great place for discussing such things, then it would be great if it could be done better.

But it isn't, so back to the cats.

PS congrats on your transitioning Cockroach Queen!

As a short term response to simply ensure sure a community isn't populated with toxic people, this maybe the right thing to do. Especially as there are already forum rules in place, that explicitly state that anti-trans views will not be tolerated.
And this will be the case elsewhere too, not just here.

But in the long term, this strategy doesn't work. It ends up pushing people into a corner, isolating them and strengthening their resolve. They will then seek solidarity with people who hold similar views, and this causes further problems for trans people. Organised idealogical groups, working in tandem with influential celebrities peddle the anti-trans position using faux moral panic, and whipped up social media hysteria. This in turn can easily condition impressionable people down a very unsavoury rabbit hole without them realising it. These people are often merely ignorant and misinformed, and can be easily turned back onto the right path with some sensible discourse, and in the long term this is far more helpful.

Manky posted:

Many parts of this are plain wrong. That is a choice, not a natural consequence. Being told "wow your views actually align with Nazis" and deciding to leave here for Stormfront is not on us! There are actually lots of educational and instructive resources out there to turn to before seeking solidarity with outspoken bigots, and as strangers in a shared public space we don't have any obligation beyond telling people when their behavior is unacceptable.

tl:dr a lot of people in the SC thread wanted to politely discuss why trans people can be seen as dangerous and think it is a shame everyone is so reactionary and hostile

Eating a week probation and running off into the wilderness to cry about it and never return while your friends treat it like a real forum ban is funny but also peak Maidenless behavior.
