"The best union organiser is the boss" sort of vibe

Socialism is when the government does stuff and everyone is poor!
And when everyone has nothing, it's communism!

A trans person from the instance hexbear.net

Lemmy.world pre emptively defederated them before hexbear federated with wider lemmy because hexbear's a very active community of communists who've been on an undefederated fork of Lemmy for three years or so.

Hexbear users are very active in calling out anything they perceive as reactionary thought (transphobia, racism, ableism, homophobia, support for imperialism, colonialist apologia, etcetera) and pretty frequently get hostile about it, one of the stated intentions of them federating was to bully bigots into silence in order to make all of lemmy a more left wing space. Hexbear has a broader definition of what constitutes as reactionary thought than most people do though so they'll frequently attack liberals too.

Basically they felt hexbear's community wouldn't mesh well with lemmy.world

If tankies defend trans people and liberals are attacking them then I'm with the tankies

Basically a single transphobe came in, a load of trans hexbear users started bullying them and mocking them and that boosted the visibility of the post so that more transphobes came into the comments, but because you're not federated with hexbear all you're seeing is the transphobes and some people doing pushback on them

We've never "pretended to support lgbt", why would we? What would be the point of a load of alt right channers roleplaying as queer communists for years on an incredibly niche social media in the hope that eventually redditors would come to the site? And even supposing we did, and we were all just alt right types, if we'd spent years doing reading groups of queer theory together and kicking out transphobes and creating the most queer friendly space on lemmy just as an incredibly long extended bit then would the supposed communists we're impersonating even take issue with that?

Like just use some critical thinking, at this point almost half of the sites users are trans and most of the rest are queer, most new users cite our radical opposition to queerphobia as their reason for joining, what evidence is there that we lie about being queer friendly? Like just check out !traaaaaaannnnnnnnnns@hexbear.net or !anti_cishet_aktion@hexbear.net or !transenby_liberation@hexbear.net and tell me in good faith that all these people have been lying for years about being queer

ITT: people managing to be simultaneously racist and misogynistic

because of kolektiva the FBI has my nudes saved on a hardrive somewhere 💀

can you please not just be homophobic as like some epic own of the conservatives. Even if its supposed to be an ironic thing because conservatives would hate to be called gay, it just reads as normal homophobia.

ngl, i'd rather twitter wins since it's imploding already so it will hardly survive for much time after it beats threads down
