Lemmy.ml is the devil tempting good leftists to sin. They pretend to be leftists, but the admins are transphobic. It’s a trap designed to trick leftists into supporting transphobia. That way they won’t get to go to heaven.
I was made a moderator here after calling out cis shitters being transphobic in our trans comm; the only admin we have beef with is Nutomic, the rest have been fine.
Have you considered that you defending an instance that defends a transphobe means you are defending a transphobe? Because Jesus Christ (transmasculine, He/Him) would have considered that if He were in your position, and He wouldn’t do it. It’s a sin.
Jesus Christ is a fictional character and the logical end conclusion of your points is:
“Transphobes decide where everyone else can go. First we wait to see where transphobes go, and then we stay away from those places, because we want the transphobes to have free ownership of whatever they choose and not be bothered by anyone”
Nutomic is one of the two lead developers and owners of lemmy.ml. If using and defending a platform owned by a transphobe is brave resistance, why don’t you go to Truth Social or Xitter instead? It would save us having to hear your silly arguments.
Well no, both of those things are supporting transphobes, the only difference is whether you’re supporting Nutomic’s transphobia or someone else’s. The true alternative is to quit lemmy.ml and not be a transphobe supporter at all.
I guess your argument is the best thing to do is to slowly reform the space by working under a transphobe, like that’s ever worked in history.
is your actual position that trans people should give transphobes free reign in any and every space they want, because to contest that would be actually supporting them?
My actual position is that Dessalines should tell Nutomic to either stop being a transphobe or get lost. And since Dessalines won’t do either, lemmy.ml is a lost cause and should be defederated by every trans-respecting instance until it’s stuck in its own little transphobic bubble with lemmygrad and hexbear. The rest of us get on with our lives and slowly move over to Piefed like Ada is doing with her community. Eventually lemmy.ml is about as influential as Truth Social or Raddle or Digg and Nutomic dies at the ripe old age of 90, having learned nothing and lost all relevance. In the intervening decades a worldwide communist revolution has destroyed capitalism, so Nutomic is entitled to free healthcare in his battle with cancer/parkinsons/dementia, because I support liberty and equality for all, even wankers.
I actually unlocked the ultimate grift: getting on the payroll for every foreign government all at once in return for my single digit posts per day on obscure internet forum for linux nerds.
Me, I’m not on anybody’s payroll. But I’m trying to be. Once I build up my modlog enough as a freelancer, the plan is to print it out and mail it to the nearest Chinese embassy so I can finally quit my day job.
"Thanks for joining us for the Militant Lemmy 2025 awards show! It is going to be a great year for autocrats boys and girls. A special thanks to all our disenfranchised westerners, remember without your misguided support tyrants everywhere might feel unwelcome.
For our first award this year we are celebrating the most hypocritical poster. We are not just talking about any old conservative hypocrite here, we are talking about people so hypocritical they don’t even remember what they actually agreed or disagreed with to begin with. People who are so contradictory they make doublethink seem like a fun meditative practice.
Alright, the votes are in. This is going to be a wild one folks! This years winner is none other than DIVA!!!"
See, this proves even if you are a lonely pusher of shitty propaganda you to can get recognized for your efforts. Congratulations, you really do deserve it.
You can just let people be wrong. It costs nothing.
They’re obviously hardliners to the point of comedic effect but why do you care so much to argue?
Do you really expect someone who’s so set in their opinions as to join .ml to read your comment and just go, “oh damn, guess I’ll just stop believing in the things I believe in and believe in entirely different things”?
Do you genuinely think you’re so convincing or do you just enjoy a good pissing contest?
You can just let people be wrong. It costs nothing.
Well… when they’re for example spreading disinformation and propaganda for Russia, that can cost a lot, even if not immediately, or not to you personally. As someone from a small nation that has a long history of being attacked by Russia, I’ll ask: what do you think ultimately happens when more and more people start to believe they have the right to invade their neighbors…? I’d rather not just let paid trolls and simple idiots spread Kreml’s disinformation to weaken “the west”, and justify taking over Ukraine and attacks on other countries as well
Tankies are the worst of the worst. They ban people for nonsense, brigade people with alts, and are devoid of candor. I have talked with hundreds of people who have been mistreated and abused by them including myself.
What I say here has no bearing on anything and I am not stopping anyone from doing anything. I have no power, I am not a mod, and I don’t have alts.
I was literally having a fun fantasy in the face of someone that is without a doubt disingenuous. It is taking it to a higher place beyond what is going on. Absurdity meets absurdity. I get you don’t get it and that is okay.
I have no love for tankies. It just seemed like a lot of effort and mental energy went into that so I thought there may be some interesting lore there.
how I look while typing replies:
Except it’s true. Not a fan of tankies or marxism
personally I prefer marxist/anarchist spaces, not a fan of liberals or conservatives
I can’t tell whether a meme featuring a character from a Chinese game company is part of the joke or coincidental.
Either way, I upvote for Silver Wife.

I use X because I’m not banned there. I won’t bother with Truth Social knowing they’d ban me
Well there we go, don’t we
I’ll happily go to hell if the alternative is ceding a space I’m in to transphobes without a fight tyvm

That’s what I think we should do.
Lmao
Not everything is (nor should be) about you and your minority of choice though? The faster you learn that the better.
are you cis?
Oh gawd that is rich, do authoritarians pay you for these sick memes!?

Idk why you call my hypocritical or disingenuous, I’m actually very ideologically consistent and earnest, I just like to joke around as well.
that aside, I don’t need your recognition when I already have like 12 different paychecks rolling in
Why do you care about tankies so much?
You can just let people be wrong. It costs nothing.
They’re obviously hardliners to the point of comedic effect but why do you care so much to argue?

Yes, I agree, spreading Russia’s misinformation should be combated and illegal.
We need to immediately close and fine Facebook, X and Reddit.

Lol pure projection

You do know that crazy people can believe in and spread conspiracy theories for free…
So not liking .ml makes you checks notes a conspiracy theorist. Got it.
Your reading comprehension needs work.
Your probably right.
