          The first leopard attack was just over 4 years ago, tho. You’d think they would get new/better helmets in the meantime

    Instead of properly debating the issue at hand (the sanity of this schizo), commenters fight on whenever or not she’s getting misgendered in the comments. Never change Lemmy

    If this post doesn’t get deleted, I’m gone. This just shows again that lemmy.world is filled with transphobes and that the mods endorse them. I will look for an instance that doesn’t federate with them.

      I am very confused by your comment.

      The picture shows a post by a trans person praising donald trump.

      And a response to that post pointing out that trump is transphobic.

      But you saw this and decided that its the people of lemmy world who are this transphobes?

      How is this post not a pro trans post? By opposing trumps anti trans executive order and pointing that out to a trans person who supports trump, you are damaging trump, not the trans person.

      People can be trans and also fucking idiots at the same time. Its not transphobic to think a specific trans person is being dumb.

        It’s the lemmy people dogpiling and continuing the deadnaming after the point in the tweet has already been made. Yes Caitlyn Jenner is a moron who aligned herself with transphobic fascists who have legally mandated she be called by her deadname. Continuing to deadname her after the point is made is just additional cruelty on top without any additional benefit

        Speaking more meta though, I fully understand the anger coming from people more to the left of Republicans, cruelty has won the Judiciary, congress and the presidency, cruelty has been an effective political strategy for republicans and a lot of people are angry and scared.

          Normally I would agree. But in this instance, the very fact that Jenner is trans and voluntarily having her face eaten by leopards is at the core of the issue. So you can’t really tiptoe around the subject in this instance. She’s totally doing this to herself.

          “The president just ordered the government to deadname you” is not deadnaming.

          Ordinarily, yes - but she’s praising someone who would quite happily dead name her. It’s apt, is it not?

          Nah this is like the social contract thing. You only get protection from the social contract as long as you adhere to the social contract.

          The minute you stop adhering to the social contact you stop being protected by it.

          Don’t be a piece of shit and people won’t treat you like a piece of shit. It’s that fuckin simple.

              If they were being extremely racist I might.

              Not because I’m racist but just because I know it’ll piss them off.

              With that said I’ve never actually done it just thought about it

                Well… the were when they were in the concentration camps in 1930s Germany after the institute that performed the first successful gender reassignment surgery was burned to the ground.

                Sure it wasn’t the many generations of the horrors of slavery but this is literally just Dido-ing at this point comparing the scale of atrocities. An atrocity is still an atrocity. Slavery was bad and we still see major hardships to this day because of the effects of slavery and Jim Crow. Nazi Germany was bad and look around, we’re speed running the collapse of a democracy into a fascist dictatorship following the exact same steps as Germany did in the 30s.

            Trans rights are human rights. They are not something you can take away because people “stop adhering to the social contract”, the same way we can’t take access to food and healthcare away from prisoners just because they did a crime (yes, in real-life they often get taken away, but you get the point).

            Insisting on deadnaming someone also harms the whole transgender community, by pushing the point that those rights are conditional.

      If finding irony in a situation is transphobic I guess you’ll have a hard time on social media in general. Have you tried gardening? And I suggest you don’t announce your departure either, this isn’t a train station.

        Finding the irony of a trans person cheering on a transphobic fascist isn’t transphobic, continuing to deadname (something transphobes do for the sake of cruelty) after the irony has been pointed out is transphobic.

        Yes she’s a dumbass who supports a man who is legally requiring her to be deadnamed. If you follow continue to follow the laws of a fascist to hurt minorities, congratulations you’re still following the laws of a fascist to hurt minorities.

        Call her a dumbass, point out that the law as written requires people to call her by her deadname, point out that she won’t be immune to fascist consequences when Republicans do come for trans people, don’t continue to deadname just because someone else already pointed out irony.

          Is mentioning the name in a conversation deadnaming?
          Because in my mind there is a difference between “trump said we have to call you bruce” and “hey bruce, guess what trump said”, but it might not be the same for the people who disagree with my argument

            Yes there is a difference between “trump said I have to call you bruce” which is what the original post is, but the people in the comments posting photos of the Bruce Jenner decathlon board game, or referring to her as “Mr Bruce that is” or making a fake book title “they still call me Bruce II: electric boogaloo” are where the transphobia is setting in.

            Yes she’s a dumbass, yes she is cheering on the leopards eating her face, yes those leopards are going after trans people, but that doesn’t mean we get to act the same way transphobes do to insult and dehumanize trans people no matter how much we disagree with the trans person. Attack their ideas and their dumbassery, not their identity.

              I agree, and I haven’t seen many people doing that on this thread, so calling out the totality of lemmy.world users as “unmoderated transphobes” as the parent comment tries to do is forced and useless.
              I’ll go a step further and say that this kind of behaviour detracts from the main cause of trans rights, which many of the people here stand behind. Because if you call me a transphobe when all I’m trying to do is to call out your bullshit, what you’re actually achieving is making me loose simpathy for your cause.
