I can never tell if the posts here are making fun of or agreeing with the screenshots they’re posting, I always have to wait for comments to roll in with context. :(

Didn’t we just finish telling off people on Blahaj zone for making ableist comments like this?
I think you misunderstood me.
This is a very rude response. I did recognize the other song, and asked a clarifying question. Not respecting people who communicate in different ways is kind of ableist.
I recognize and agree that it is a drop in the ocean, but that itself is indicative of how big the issue is and that we should be taking the problem seriously.
I understood the reference, but I don’t understand what you meant by it. This song would certainly be played on the radio in the kinds of small towns that the other song is talking about.
I don’t see why being sarcastic about it is warranted. I feel like being dismissive of the song’s reach is a bad thing: it means we are underestimating our adversaries.
I wouldn’t say “oh, only a few people are doing that” if Nazi flyers started appearing in my town, for example.
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say.
Are you being sarcastic? I can’t tell.
I wouldn’t be so dismissive, it’s being played on the radio here.
I was about to take back my labour value from my company, but then some white guy told me the real problem is people milking welfare. /s
I put up one of those sticky hooks near a window just for this purpose! Never had a loofah get gross on me. I am using the gourd type, too.
I didn’t see the original comment, but I agree with general anarchist sentiment and even I know that we won’t be able to jump right to it from capitalism. I view it more as an ideal longterm goal, and we are of course going to need to have a stable socialist society first to get there. That’s why any communist willing to work with anarchists is a comrade of mine!
Nobody is saying that.
Ughhh. This one really kills me, because usually it’s cis people saying this to trans people, telling them that they’re wrong. Like, would you do that to someone of a racial minority who told you something you said was a slur? Probably not.
I’ve even seen people say that their “transwoman friend” [sic] said it was okay. As if that makes it okay for everyone. It’s like they think they have some kind of weird “misgendering pass.”
They call leftist spaces the “echo chambers,” yet they are the ones rushing to shut up opinions they don’t agree with by defederating. Kind of funny.
Here’s a terrible take I saw today from a lemm.ee user:
[Hexbear’s] they/them tags are a blantant mockery of trans people.
I guess my pronouns are a joke??
no, they aren’t pro trans or pro lgbtq. They purposely pick those pronouns and go around to post racist stuff, bigotry, chinese propaganda and all the accompanying junk. Typical online terrorism.
Hexbear is so good at being GSRM inclusive that they literally think it’s satirical or something. Which basically outs them as having never been a part of a truly inclusive space, since they expect that most people should use “normal” pronouns, and that spaces shouldn’t be visibly queer.
It is definitely used by most people to mean that they’ve never been with a man. But of course, transphobes don’t see trans women as women, so… 🤢
