The transphobia stops now (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

This community is housed on an instance run by two trans women, focused on the needs of the queer and gender diverse community.

We allowed 196 here because we were promised the community is queer and trans inclusive.

If you're here it's because you're aggressively supportive of trans folk. Not middle of the ground, not "just asking questions".

If your response to that is, "yes, but..." then this isn't the instance for you, and by extension, this isn't the community for you.

tl;dr - Unambiguous support and inclusion, or fuck off somewhere else.

--

Edit - I changed the phrase "aggressive support to "unambiguous support", as there was some confusion over the intent behind my previous phrasing.

Same energy as "I don't mind gay people I just wish they'd stop cramming their sexuality down my throat by holding hands in public."

Well thats not what im saying, but i guess i missed my mark. Oh well.

I actually meant to convey that since the community seems to be under brigade of biggots that are very much not welcome, being on all seems to be hurting them. Im totally fine with their stance. I am openly and fully supportive. Pride Puerto Vallarta this year was awesome! Knowing why people are showing up who are unwelcome when there is such a huge influx of new people is something that might be good to know about. Which is why i started with im only saw the post because its on all, meaning i didnt go looking for it, it came to me.

Sorry for the confusion. Peace and love!
