...at which point we will meet in a comity discussing why we shouldn't give it to you and you will have to convince us otherwise without being present or being able to intervene. Best of luck, you're gonna do great!

To me, it's simple. The first person, I can explain to them why saying "tranny" and "fag" is bad and hurts the shit out of me, and have a good conversation with them and feel confident that by the end of it, they will have learned something, be a lot more careful around those words and even perhaps, not use them at all.

Whereas, the other person, sure they don't call me slurs, but if they were to phrase things differently and actually do call me a "tranny" and a "fag", I know for a fact that trying to talk to them about why that is terrible would be a fucking waste of my time that would only end up with them explaining to me in the most backhanded way why they are justified in calling me such.

I'll take poorly worded but earnest support over the thinly veiled disdain of polite society people any day.

piefed.social, the PieFed flagship instance, is currently sporting a Trans Pride flag style logo to support of the trans community on Lemmy which came under attack recently.

What the fuck happened this time and how am I somehow not aware? Is it the Tesseract thing?

Thanks a ton though, it's quite touching. 🩵🩷🤍🩵🩷

A lot of these recent measures is to avoid election interference. It's quite heart warming to see the government making sure that the far right doesn't reach power because of foreign interference and instead, does everything in its power to make sure it wins with support from the current government instead. Gotta play by the rules, you see? We like our fascism homegrown in France.
(/sarcasm, of course, I want to scream)

Yeaaah, I'm gonna need more than that. Personally I blocked them because their instance's tolerance towards AI ruined my feed, but there isn't much in this screenshot. Fascist being put through violonce? Boo-fucking-hoo, their entire ideology is violence. I don't advocate for hurting or killing fascists. But when one dies, like Kirk, I don't morn the fucker. Hell, you could even call it self-defense.
