Wanna get mad? Yesterday drag made a similar post criticising Lemmy, but it focused on the transphobia on the platform. -46 downvotes. Thread full of transphobia anyway. On Blahaj. https://lemmy.nz/post/17415487

hmm i honestly just don’t understand what the post is trying to say. it’s a bit unclear to me but im sorry there was confusion and hard feelings going on

Anyone who thinks pretending to be trans is an effective troll hates trans people.

see i agree with that statement when written out like that. the post doesn’t really do anything to get me to that notion on its own though.

Hm. Maybe it was too subtle? Cunk is explaining why "trolls pretending to be trans" is supposed to be a problem on Lemmy, using her usual brand of accidentally telling it like it is. Lemmy only has a "troll problem" because Lemmy users hate trans people. No trans hate, no troll problem. If everyone respected trans people, nobody would be getting called a troll. If anyone actually tried to troll that way, they'd be met with acceptance and have no power.

All drag's friends on Discord understood the joke on their first read. Drag isn't sure where the misunderstanding is. We're currently in a voice call trying to figure out why anyone doesn't understand this one. Drag's friend suggested maybe you don't think Lemmy is full of transphobes, but drag thinks you do, since you've said Lemmy is very misogynistic, and those two things go together. Maybe you didn't understand that Cunk is supposed to be wrong about the trolls actually existing but right about what the problem the users have is?
