And here I thought both transactivism and transphobia were clearly promoted by Russia to create discord in the west. It would kind of track with what Yuri Bezmenov was saying back in 1984: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yErKTVdETpw

But if you disagree with the person who created the software you're using, why on earth does that bother you? It doesn't become unholy because of their touch. You can think of it like the old saying goes: "They Capitalists will sell us the rope that we will use to hang them".

Because why would the bourgeoisie want the masses fighting each other? Though he's wrong anyway because the elite didn't promote anything that doesn't benefit them financially. While that includes turning the poor against each other, it also includes selling anything in any form to anyone regardless of want moral, ethical, or practical factors. If they can get you to pay them money for something with a rainbow on it, congrats, they're pro-lgbtq. Because they've got another subsidiary that will sell the hate-fueled psychopaths that want to kill you their Bibles and.

Classical Marxist/Lenninism is specifically not intersectional. They'll use race as a lever against capitalism but deny race as a social problem they must specifically intervene on. But it's also stupid to adopt. There's a reason TERFs are often fascist adjacent.

@[email protected] So sorry you had to hear this.

But this isn't the first or last time the lemmy devs go off the deep end. Come check out [email protected] for a whole range of extremism the developers actively endorse and encourage

:(

he sounds like hes pointing out hypocrisy on someone elses comment

am missing somethimg?

@[email protected] can you comment on this statement, or at least its veracity? Kind of fucking alarming even if it was a private correspondence. Sure as hell gonna make it (more) impossible for me to convince my trans siblings to join Lemmy if shit like this is allowed to fly. And I'm sure a lot of us are in similar boats.

I wonder if the lead developers of Lemmy, and other federated software, who are also admins and mods of instances and communities, realize that they too are part of the bourgeoisie they rail so hard against? Then again, they probably have a whole gymnastics routine for how they somehow are not part of the aristocracy.
