      Yeah I really don’t understand how people have a such a bad experience on here. I think I have had one asshole who argued with me, in over seven months spent here. And even that guy was mostly just condescending as fuck instead of outright throwing insults. Everyone else is just the normal kind of argumentative that I am myself as well.

        Yeah honestly the people at Lemmy are mostly great.

        I think the difference is that the people on Lemmy seem in general to be smarter than other places, generally people actually seem to want to discuss rather than argue.

        Not that there aren’t dumb assholes on Lemmy. I mean, I’m here.

          To me it just means people are more eloquent about their transphobia or their rationalization of genocide 🙄

            I haven’t seen a lot of transphobia here.

            The genocide rationalization is an issue I’ve noticed.

              Just a heads up, whoreticulture is going around trying to drum up trans hate by pretending like they are trans and then being an awful person. You may not want to take the bait.

                I don’t get into arguments about culture war bullshit anyway. Thanks for the heads up tho.

                  Wow lmao I can’t believe you straight up just believe that, I am guessing you’re a terf too? idk. anyway this is some of the transphobia I was talking about. This user didn’t like what I was saying because I called them out as spouting terf rhetoric, and they started calling me a fake trans person trying to make trans people look bad.

                    You just called me a terf, which I’m not, for absolutely no reason. So whereas I didn’t actually care before, I’m inclined to believe them now. None of the trans people I know throw around the term “terf” like that at literally anyone.

                It’s nice that lemmy is small enough that you start to recognize the troll usernames. I once got FederatingIsTooHard to admit that he was HACKthePrison’s alt, two well known trolls

      with full respect, probably not lmao. :) lemmy is small but there’s a lot of diversity of activity going on.

      i mean fuck it, your instance name is literally yiffit.net. best not call into question other people’s expression of lived experience without evidence 👍
