cis woman says a trans woman talking about a trans woman issue is sexist, how dare you
and we get this shit on top of everything else
fedi continues to rep itself incredibly poorly
I am so tired of this bullshit

@tillybridges gotta acknowledge it’s a hilarious one though…
That said do we have any indication that it’s not a dishonest account? (Bot, sock puppet…)
The person tagged "@lemonlolita" (!!!) probably isn't a feminist posting in good faith? That SOUNDS like the sort of name a 4chan burnout would pick.
And, of course, espousing overblown viewpoints of your victims to try and start a fight between them is classic trolling.
Feels more like "why hasn't this shit weasel been banned yet?" to me.
@ann3nova @tillybridges (Edit: respecting OP's wishes.)
My apologies, Tilly.
I just want to let you know that I (as a cis woman) support your right to have your specific trans issues heard and addressed. Especially without someone being an ass about it.
I can't imagine how it feels to basically upend your whole life and fight to express who you really are, and then when you do this shit happens. I'm so sorry.

@tillybridges far too many people have taken the idea of intersectionality and inclusivity to mean that every post or statement ever made has to be applicable to everyone otherwise it's bad and wrong.
When, in reality, it just means that more diverse voices need to be listened to on the same level as the voices of those in the majority.
Just wish the world would let trans women talk about trans women without having to add in all sorts of addendums and caveats to avoid upsetting the "but what about *me*?" people.
@TheSunnyOne @tillybridges seems people are becoming less willing to listen to others even especially if their opinion differs.

It is so very important [for people] to listen to different voices and opinions and does not mean they need to agree but we need to understand and appreciate others' have different views.
Hopefully 'we' can be civil and respectful to each other in the process and sometimes we learn, tweak our opinion or even confirm our previously held view.
The second we stop listening to others is a sad day and one where we regress and those that solely attack through ignorance or intollerance may already be lost.
@tillybridges Thanks for the block recommendation! I found a couple more in the replies to that post.
People are not okay.
@tillybridges thank you for the block recommendation. I know @/[email protected] by her unhinged posts she makes on fedi
btw she is using AI generated pfp. She loves to make others uncomfortable
Ahhh mastodon dot social and its err, interesting, approach to moderation. This is exactly why the (trans run and moderated) instance I am on has limited federation with it.
It isn't fediverse moderation which sucks, it is moderation on certain instances, and all we can do is call out as much as we can.
