Was banned from !egg_irl@lemmy.blahaj.zone for calling out a Mod’s misuse of the Egg prime directive to criticize trans people for helping out trans women in denial of their trans-ness. They’re denying the validity of signs of being transgender, what the actual fuck, this shit is not okay. Then after banning me that dipshit locks the post so no one else can reply on it. How is this not power-tripping?

Girl, the whole point of eggs is that the only way to hatch them is to provide a warm environment and let the chick break out the egg on their own
“breaking people’s eggs” is harmful thinking and while I understand where you’re coming from (wanting to help people transition earlier so they can accept themselves, pass better avoid suicide, etc) - this is not the way - you can’t force others to make decisions about themselves - they have to come to their conclusions on their own terms - otherwise you’re recreating the same issues you’re trying to solve
imagine breaking somebody’s egg and then it turns out they were just into cross-dressing but you kept insisting “nah you’re in denial you’re actually trans - start transitioning now you’ll regret it later if you don’t” - and then they transition and find out that’s not what they wanted and take their own life because of irreversible changes they can’t afford to change that make them incredibly dysphoric - are you ready to accept that responsibility? and even if you are - do you see how it’s not your choice to make?
If you’re wrong about someone and they turn out to be a femboy, no harm no foul, if you are right about a trans woman being in denial and you don’t help her, it’s life or death. I’d day it’s worth the awkwardness and few hurt feelings along the way, it’s LIFE OR DEATH!
