I’m calling for https://lemmy.ml/u/Beaver@lemmy.ca, the most prolific user of the transgender comm here on lemmy.ml, to be immediately unbanned and nutomic to be removed as admin. It is good and correct to leak the DMs of transphobes.

@dessalines@lemmy.ml @JoeBidet@lemmy.ml @cypherphunks

edit: you can find more info from kristinas post here and beavers post here

edit 2: proof, also beaver was banned from the whole instance modlong

edit 3: For trans people looking for a safer instance, I suggest Hexbear. They have a very active trans user base and are extremely supportive.

    That’s awesome, but wasnt there a whole debacle with lots of instances defederating from hexbear? If it was so, I never heard it was a trans positiv community (I hope I’m wrong). I always heard beehaw was the trans 💖. Please enlighten me!

      I will say, I have had a .ml account because I like to engage with the broader lemmy even if it is often very transphobic. Hexbear has the best trans environment from what I’ve seen, I think it’s worth emulating. The red scare fearmongering was a bit over the top from the other lemmies, people responding to your posts from instances you’re federated with is not brigading

        Thanks! I knew there was something rotten in that instance. Wanting to dismantle the west, indeed, a very pro LGBT stance they have. Good luck being LGBT in one of the fine dictatorships like Russia (where trans is seen as a mental disease, probably the most lenient of those dictatorships, in Iran it’s a death sentence).

        Yeah I’ll keep myself at beehaw and leave hexbear to the pro dictator fachos.

          Lol yeah the west is so pro LGBT. Just ignore the hundreds of proposed anti-trans bills in the USA, or the mass incarceration/prison violence towards trans people, or the widespread medical gatekeeping, or the fact that being LGBT (especially T) makes you way more likely to be homeless, or how even the supposedly left Labour Party has taken a huge rightward swing under Queer Harmer. If you actually think there’s any hope of freedom for LGBT people in the western world you are a fucking idiot. Go read a book and you might yet be able to pull the worms out of your brain. Rainbow Solidarity in Defense of Cuba by Leslie Feinberg is a great one if you want to see what a country actually trying to improve the lives of LGBT people looks like.

                  The nerve to be coming in here and telling trans people they aren’t who they fucking are.

                  yeah yeah yeah just plug your ears and close your eyes. erase my identity because i don’t conform to your narrow minded worldview. i’ll give you one thing, you’re damn right i’m hateful. i’ve spent my whole life in the west and hated every miserable minute of it. keep defending my oppressors all you like though, i’m sure the colonial murder machine will pay you back graciously one day

          where trans is seen as a mental disease

          Until extremely recently that was also the case in the states, as in, before informed consent became a thing I couldn’t get HRT without a doctors note saying I’m mentally ill and fuckable enough, and even then it was sterilization first and having to pay out of pocket for tons of shit.

          Also Iran post islamic revolution was one of the few places you can get a binary transition- it’s still pretty fucked up, but not a death sentence by any measure.

          I wish that Russia was less shitty about being trans so I could visit family more safely, it’s not been made better by having my identity turned into a cultural wedge issue.

            Yeah but today I’m staying in Europe, and would prefer USA over Russia or Iran.

            Shame about Iran, it was so west before the take over.

              I think you misunderstood me, after the islamic revolution they allowed for binary transitions. edit: citation

              Yeah but today I’m staying in Europe, and would prefer USA over Russia or Iran.

              I’m sure that you would, I’m just letting you know as a trans person that the US has been pretty shit for quite some time unless you have money. Even in blue states employment discrimination is rampant and I literally know people being forced to move to less-safe states because they can’t afford to live in blue states.

              Seeing that in my everyday life while the US poses as some sort of monolithic protector of LGBT rights is just insulting.
