I do believe I said “immediately attacking and dogpiling trans women who point out that the situation would be much worse under Trump”, not using transphobic slurs or whatever.

Nice astroturfing, though. I see you out here.

I drive a cab and talk politics all day in one of the most leftist regions in the US. I’ve never so much as heard the name in person. Including from other socialists and active agitators for workers rights.

Good thing hexchan’s take is totally irrelevant!

Queer rolls off the tongue a lot better than LGBT. Though I have heard it pronounced like ‘el gibbity’ and I fully approve.

Can I have it? I’d never buy one but I use Spotify constantly in my cab. It’d be nice to have it not attached to my phone.

I love this take. It reminds me of like that picture of a guy in a hoodie and sunglasses from the early 20th century, or when an older show or movie has a line that seems to refer to the name of something that hadn’t been invented at the time, but it’s actually referring to something else.

Or like when they fix time travel paradox in a story by faking an ‘inescapable’ event.

It’s perfect.

Nope. Blocked the community and all the users who replied. Go dig around in their trashcan of an instance if you like. Or just tell them you’re trans and want to make sure Trump doesn’t get into office so you don’t have to flee the country and watch them come out of the woodwork.

Whoever made this small army of bots spam posting new sports communities on an empty instance, can you stop?

We get it. You’re desperate for attention to your server. All this gets you though is blocked and defederated.

I feel like those posters aren’t really socialists either. There’s a point which just claiming a worldview isn’t enough to justify the accuracy of that label while holding all the opposing positions to its values.

I’ve been having a number of conversations on Hexchan recently trying to make sense of their politics. The most common instance of their hateful hypocrisy I’ve encountered is this constant assurance that they support trans people while immediately attacking and dog piling and trans people who point out that the situation would be much worse under Trump.

I live in Massachusetts. We are a very blue state and we’re one of the best places in the world to transition. We have informed consent, legal protection of our basic rights, and mandatory insurance coverage of trans health care, which state insurance also covers. Whatever you think of the DNC, the Democrats in Massachusetts are absolutely allies of trans people who’ve worked to actively protect our rights.

Still, I’m well aware of the danger that federal law could potentially pose. I know there may be a time when I have to flee the country if things get bad enough, and that’s a lot more likely under Trump.

But they don’t actually care about my rights, happiness, or safety, or those of any other trans people. They don’t care what happens to us, they just want to use us as a bludgeon to dunk on people.

The hexchanners who aren’t actively Russian trolls seem to be little more than useful idiots for conservatives, minimizing the damage they do to vulnerable populations and engaging in high school level pettiness and hate.

I spent like half my time on Lemmy today just blocking bot accounts, bot communities, and chuds. The all feed looks about as bad as Reddit did now.

That didn’t take long.

I’d like to block all users and posts from hexchan, exploding heads, and lemmygrad. I don’t care if it sends the data as long as it blocks it from my UI.

What’s that written in? Python? I need to learn Python.

I love Twin Temple!

Are you in Twin Temple?

:O

I honestly wouldn’t give those people the dignity of calling them leftists. They’re too concerned about cosplaying as activists and dunking on people to actually give a shit about advancing the rights of real people or trying to protect anything good.

Honestly, it’s begun to feel more hostile and shady. Pretty sure the Russian trolls are here, but hexchan ain’t helping either. I’m waiting for a client side instance block feature. We really need it.

Out here desperately hoping that the fake leftists propping up Trump are mostly Russian trolls or just a pocket of internet children. I think actual real life people on the left in the US largely get how dangerous this could be.

I don’t really engage with anything I don’t see as a thoughtful reply made in good faith. Sometimes. But I try not to.

Harvard has its CS50 lectures online for free. Can’t hurt.

You making a pop culture Civ clone?
