I just got a message from a trans friend saying they got banned from /r/trans for trying to post the feinberg image I made some time ago. They messaged me, saying they were crying, because they got banned from 4 trans subreddits because of it and they were one of their only places of support and was so shocked that it was against the rules. They were already harassed off reddit once. I mentioned they could come here.
Its so fucking crazy that literally the 2-5% of trans people, liberals, were able to get ahold of the trans subreddits and hold our communities hostage, fragment them, and purge any trans people that want to fight and advocate for third world trans people who are literally having bombs dropped on their heads. I spend half my time on here going through ban logs to make sure as many trans people get to be here as possible and are dealt with leniently because of shit like this.
ruins everything
Uhhh what’s against the rules about it?
Isn’t Leslie responsible for a good portion of the language we use in the trans struggle today?
Trying to inform a liberal about context and history is like explaining how to crochet to a rock
She’s literally on the National LGBTQ Wall of Honor inside the Stonewall Inn ffs. Gender Studies wouldn’t exist without her nor half the language we use for gender identity.
the majority of non marxist trans people I know know nothing of the Stonewall riots, monument, or Inn
liberals are genuinely completely allergic to learning history
I’m boggled by what these people think is actually involved in achieving anything. Erasing someone like Leslie would have a considerable negative effect on the output of future activists for trans people. Where do they think radicals come from? The democrat party? lol
