Hello, drag is seeking feedback on this meme from a more… politically aware community, before posting it anywhere big.

Is the narrative here clear? The fact that Gru is a transphobic Lemmy user and mistakenly thinks drag is their ally? Is the moral at the end, that drag’s existence outs transphobes and makes Lemmy safer from transphobia, obvious?

Drag got he/him-ed earlier today and just now, suddenly had this realisation that calling drag a troll and misgendering drag is exactly what a conservative troll would do. They WANT all the cisgender liberals to think unconventional identities are all fake. If a troll pretends to be trans and gets outed, that’s the conservative win condition! Look at the helicopter pasta, they didn’t try to hide that. They made it obvious satire.

If everyone accepts drag and comes to accept neopronouns and xenogenders, the conservatives lose. But if everyone thinks drag is a troll, they win. If there are closeted conservatives on Lemmy, they think drag is an ally and want to “help” drag by “outing the troll”. They think we’re doing kayfabe and are just pretending to fight. They think misgendering drag, and being applauded by the liberals for it, is a nice thing to do, to help drag spread transphobia.

Of course, this plan doesn’t work if the community stands up to misgendering and the mods ban the people responsible. Which is what drag always says the mods should do when drag gets he/him-ed. Drag is “betraying” all those trolls who think we’re on the same side.

So, is this massive conspiratorial revelation clear in the meme? Drag is too close to the issue to be objective about the meme’s clarity or quality.

      Thank you very much.

      …drag is a little frustrated that everyone was too busy resisting the transphobe to review the meme. Drag wants to know if it’s okay to post on bigger communities

        I think it’s amusing if a little text heavy- drag doesn’t need my permission though!

        panel 1: keep

        panel 2: “tactical misgendering to dunk on the troll”

        panel 3/4: "I get banned for Transphobia "
