Broadly speaking, you probably agree with the large majority of the views commonly attributed to whichever group you identify with - what are the exceptions? Something that if you mention without a caveat immediately makes people jump to conclusions or even attack you?

    That Lemmy can be just as bigoted, hostile, and close-minded as the sites it set out to replace; it drives out views which aren’t in line with the gestalt majority. This thread, then, mostly gets answers which are on the mildest end because those who actually hold opinions out of step with the majority know damn well not to speak up, or, well… be immediately othered.

      Yeahs and people are on good behavior in posts like this. The “lemmy” doesn’t come out as much.

      Bigotry against the bigoted isn’t bigotry.

        gender war bullshit is bullshit.

        lemmy is full of anti-men threads. there was a massive one a few days ago with 100s of comments. is that pro-woman?

        I don’t know, personally I’m against anti-whatever nonsense. I’m not in any camp, but I will point out my gendered life experiences, because the often go against the popular grain of gender essentialism that many people are conceptual wedded to.
