Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.

Rules…

Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Any woman-identified person under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is welcome.
Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.

Vent about an Ask Lemmy post (lemmy.ml)

I recently made the post above.

Overall the responses were insightful, and I had a joy responding to some comments. ✨

I ended up choosing the comment that made most sense, and included an edit explaining to guys what I think would have been best in that situation if they were the ones walking by.

But after I added those edits in, it seems to have ruffled the feathers of some men, whom took it upon themselves to insult me and or throw shade upon me for my conclusions.

I did get the insight I wished for, and better understand the situation that occured. But I didn't want to also have dirt in my mouth after eating my meal.

I wish that in times like this there was a way for me to mute threads etc. 😞

Vent over, meow meow meow.

I didn't know .ml was left-communist (the ML I thought stood for Marxist-Leninist, which is certainly not left-communist).

I thought they leaned authoritarian, more "tankie" (e.g. defending Russia and North Korea) rather than anti-authoritarian. 🤔

My experience with .ml folks has certainly been that they are of that aggressive authoritarian strain. As I understand it, of the ml Lemmy devs even suggested the bourgeoisie are pushing a pro-trans (and LGBT+) agenda and thus it's unlikely they would be anti-trans.

Not that I enjoy inviting the wrath of ml users on me or mentioning Lemmy in-fighting in the first place, just that this is the first time I've heard they're left-communist.

I thought it was the other .ml one (forget its name) that was the "tankie" one?

IIRC Lemmygrad is the third of the "tankie triad" that you may have been thinking of, along with Hexbear and Lemmy.ml

[–] ZDL@ttrpg.network 1 points 5 hours ago

Lemmygrad, yes. That was the one. I've never seen much about Hexbear so can't comment.

[–] dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 7 hours ago

honestly not sure - there is also hexbear (maybe that's the one you were thinking of?) which is also obnoxiously tankie, so much so that lots of instances defederate from them

(these are glossed over impressions on my part, I don't know enough to speak about this, tbh - just hoping someone else knows more than me, lol)
