I don’t think the person on the left’s a transphobe, but I also don’t think they understand the scale of the harassment trans people face on a daily basis. Like it’s so bad the users would rather just have potential trolls ignored and downvoted than to see well meaning cis people come in and do vigilante justice using the same tactics of abuse trans people go through every day.

That empathetic disconnect looks like transphobia to some users. I don’t know that the users are right, but I understand how you reached that conclusion, especially with the person on the left’s days-long soapbox crashout about how despotic Ada is.

So you can post this meme, but if I post the exact same meme with the speech bubbles reversed it will be removed for "gatekeeping". Do I understand that correctly?

It makes no sense reversed

The more people passionately post about drama on a meme page, the less I care about it.

It is nice to see a meme poking fun of and criticizing the "leavers" without twisting and misrepresenting their views.

glad to hear you felt this was fair. i had a long conversation with one and so did my best to be as charitable as possible with what i learned.

I honestly don't understand the whole problem from anyone. I hit the block button after 1 post, and I'm just shaking my head every time. I did the same for the person who insists on having their pronouns capitalized or something (and I'm reasonably sure it's the same person, but eh, block and move on).

It costs you nothing, it takes basically no time at all, and it makes your life and everyone else's experience better. Like blocking .ml

I annoyed myself for ten minutes reading their posts, realized they were a teenager looking for attention, and blocked.

Boom, no problems.
