Want to see the transphobia and homophobia that Lemmy tankies from Hexbear are getting up to? Check out !dronerights@lemm.ee (https://lemm.ee/c/DroneRights) to see their months long harassment of a single trans person for being nonbinary.
What’s with the chaser username?
I'm gay. I'm a fat enby and I'm attracted to fat enbies because I'm gay. My username is a joke about the fact that I'm gay.
A lot of people think only a chaser or a fetishist could ever be attracted to a fat person, but that's a fatphobic trope and it's time to move past it.
Not all attraction to enbies or fat people is objectifying, but some of it definitely is, and your reddit “pm me your tits”-style username comes across that way. And no one scrolling lemmy is going to hear your explanation of who you are and what you mean, they’re just going to see the comment and username right in front of them.
But I don't think my fellow fat enbies are going to be offended, because I'm a fat enby who's actually active in the community. And I don't think you are. I don't care what straight people think of us.
You’re trying to dismiss the criticism by ingroup-outgrouping me. I’m not straight, I’m fucking pan, and numerically speaking I doubt most of the thousands of queer people on here know who you are or the intent of your username.
I’ve said my piece here and in our 1:1 conversation, and the more we talk the more you’ll probably dig your heels in. You got feedback from one person and a few upvoters. Take it or leave it.
Lol that .ml user is just being a shitass
what happened to your username https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/u/PM_ME_FAT_ENBIES ?
You know how The Gamers hate it when the left shoves "politics" into media and by "politics" they mean women and queer people? Yeah, well someone on Blahaj said they hate "politics" and I said I hate reactionary scum like them. Ada took this as harassment because apparently she thinks it's okay to hate "politics"
No, she hasn't directly harassed me with slurs and transphobia, it's only been the people on her instance who she refuses to ban.
They did that to me too. Banned me for being "reactionary" because I was too left-wing for them.
I wasn't telling them to KYS, they just interpreted it that way because that's genuinely what you lot think about people you don't like. Closest I come to KYS is telling pedos to go into the woodchipper because it really gets under their skin.
Even if I was, it wasn't the reason why I was removed. If you look at my chat history you'll see the last things I posted and it will become a lot more clear that I was just getting on the nerves of one of the admins and that was why they applied the ban.
I don't even care they banned me because the place has already proven themselves to be cryptofash faux-leftism and it sucks so many genuinely communist folk find their home there where they can't really make any genuine leftist connections.
What did you mean by
Because to me that comes off as KYS or "hopefully you die" and you said it twice before you were banned.
Honestly it seems like you got into an argument and you said some really problematic things and were banned.
Yeah, you won't have to face another shitty day. Like get your shit together and make better of things. It boggles my mind how much that the admins were able to just absolutely control my image just because they didn't like the fact I was picking fights with the cryptofash. Isn't the whole point of leftism that you're supposed to be uncompromising with fascism?
You can nitpick through each and every ban on the log and try to confabulate a reason for why I was removed or you can look at my chat history and see the admin flat out saying "I'm going to ban you if you don't back off with your critiques of me" which I of course didn't.
Thinking the admins are looking to control your image is kinda conspiracy brained, I literally just looked you up in the modlog and I agree that their read on what you said was reasonable.
Whatever, I've only moved left ever since I got banned from that shitty cult website and hopefully one day you will too. Looking back, my time there has been the sickest mentally I have ever been and that's saying something with all the shit i've been through.
I generally don't think that cults yell at people to go join a local org, even if that local org is the DSA.
Well, we should all hopefully move left over time, unlearning is a life long process.
Yeah it really is, and it's really easy to get caught up in false consciousness along the way, but that's just how you learn. You probably wouldn't be surprised how many times I ended up hanging out with neoliberals thinking they were cool only for them to surprise me with outright nazi levels of racism just out of nowhere. Yeah, those are not fond days.
