      That user is notoriously self-righteousness about grandstanding whenever gender is even slightly mentioned. Even when other women tell her she’s being obnoxious.

          That’s hilarious because I’m not even a transphobe, so that fits right in with your character of calling people various kinds of intolerant in order to feel like you’re on a moral pedestal

            It’s not like your removed comments disappear.

            Regardless, if users like you are the ones who don’t like me, I’m not losing sleep over it.

            It’s been a long time since I lived my life based on what others expect of me. My moral code is strong and I’m not ashamed of it.

            Have a good one out there.

              What, my removed comments that got mischaracterized and swarmed by people virtue signaling like you instead of actually engaging in a rational discussion and trying to understand what I was actually trying to say? Cause if you could see the full context, which you can’t, you would see that what I was saying wasn’t transphobic at all.

              And that string of “banned for being transphobic” was all from one mod, on a series of comms that I’ve never participated in, over the aforementioned conversation on a different comm. And that mod was clearly someone like you who cares more about virtue signaling than rational discussion.

              After all, I called you a woman, didn’t I? I used your preferred pronouns. That doesn’t seem like something a transphobe would do, does it? I’ve never once attacked you for being trans. I’ve called you out for being self-righteousness and in many cases bigoted, and I’ve seen other trans people call you out for the same shit too.

              But whatever, don’t lose sleep. I wouldn’t want you to damage your health. Just, when you wake up in the morning, take a look in the mirror and realize you’re just a human too, with human flaws, and you don’t get a pass on that just because of your marginalized status.

              Anyone can be a bigot. If you don’t believe me, just look at Caitlin Jenner, Alice Weidel, Kanye West. It’s not exclusive to cishet white men. Remember that.

          You’re agreeing with someone banned from multiple communities for their transphobic attacks.

          But yeah, my self awareness is non-existent.

          Good allies you got there!

            your lens of the world must be extremely cloudy, kiddo. i don’t care about your fantasy outrage scenarios. and quite frankly, I don’t have to.

            you are an extremely unpleasant individual to be around and comment to.

            good day.

            One mod. Several communities that I’ve never participated in. Over a strawman.

            Yeah, but self-awareness has everything to do with this. 🙄

      Oh no, I’m being a killjoy for all the jokes about misogyny, rape, and pedophilia in this site?

      Yeah I’m the one in the wrong.

      I’ve got messages in my inbox justifying electing a rapist regardless of political identity and we can’t even talk about spiders without someone making jokes about how shitty women are.

      Whatever.

        we can’t even talk about spiders without someone making jokes about how shitty women are.

        Funny thing coming back to this thread and answering a few more replies about people’s admiration for spiders, it kind of hit me that once you collapse your initial comment about the light-hearted joke, people can actually just talk about spiders. Like all the off topic talk was caused by you and no one else.

        The initial joke is even biologically accurate.

        The cute ones tend to have higher career salaries on average, so they are able to attract female spiders to mate with.

        Not in all, but some (very prominently the “peacock spiders”), the males absolutely have to be cute and perform a literal dance … with a high chance of getting eaten by the female if they don’t live up to her standards.

        So yeah, that joke is actually pretty good if you knew a fucking thing about spider biology. But you had to come here and inject your brand of self-righteous feminism into it. Great job.

          Gold digger jokes are inherently misogynistic. I’m allowed my opinion when someone comments at me with said joke.

          Scolding me isn’t going to change my mind here. Do you feel better though?

                You don’t. But your continued bickering with people brought this thread back up and brought to light some worthwhile comments. Replying to you was more of an after thought (also most “new comments” where located in your thread). But it seems obvious that you’re quite feedback resistant. So you do you.

                  I’ve got someone in my ear literally telling me I’m trans when I’m not, people in my DMs arguing that we should elect rapists, mods not removing pedophilic comments about 14 year olds consenting to sex with adults, but yeah, I’m the problem.

                  I am quite feedback resistant on this site, yes. I’ve seen what some of the biggest users on this site celebrate. I’m not one to abandon my moral code to get some chuds online to like me.

            nobody did in any serious capacity. you flew off the handle and then doubled down when you were told it was a joke.

            go outside and touch grass ffs. read some poetry. literally anything that might help you develop a sense of humor.

              I’m never going to find humor in making fun of women like this.

              There’s no amount of snotty little boys telling me I’m no fun that will make me lean in to casual misogyny.
