    reddit is a fucking poison on the internet and i resent all the redditors that came to lemmy, took a massive shit on the floor and then blamed us for trying to clean it up. normal bigots will at least be honest about their bigotry, these mfs will be openly bigoted, you’ll call them out on it and then they’ll call you cisphobic or something and act like the “wokescolds” are trying to send them to the pronoun gulags or something

    that faux-equality shit they pull where men/women, white/black, cis/trans etc. are all presumed equal and it’s just individuals that display “in-group biases” and really it’s the poor white men that get all the backlash because of woke or some shit is so tiring, you just can’t get through to them.

    This is news to me because I have been condescended to exponentially more as a decently passing white trans woman by cis white men in particular than I ever was before transition by ANYONE.

    However, your anecdotal experience is just that. I have been subject to exponentially more racist abuse from black individuals than from individuals of any other race.

      Funny, I’m white and never experienced racist abuse from anyone

      Maybe this individual should consider curbing his cracket behaviour and people might be nicer to them

      Man I’m sure all those times, all three of them, he was called a cracker by a black person, really interfered with his ability to get a home loan or be considered for a promotion.

        Also no idea why a guy whose this much of a total fucking loser would be getting called cracker.

        Maybe it’s because he was trying to explain to them how he experiences more racism from black people than black people do from white people.

    Well, I am angry at that. Women and all races deserve equal rights and possibilities. We should keep fighting for that. But white males don’t need to be transformed into comedy punching bags in exchange for women/other races equality. Can we respect everyone INCLUDING white males?

    Guy tells a person who “wrote the book” on a topic that they should “read the book on the topic that they wrote”. columbo-donk

    Oh noes!! We shouldn’t make fun of them! And we double shouldn’t make fun of them if they happen to be both white and male. That’s a double disadvantage! i-spil-my-jice

      Big, Beautiful Mods! We have the best ones, we really do. Have you ever seen those other mods? Disgusting those other mods, they’re not great I tell you, not great, and I know great don’t I folks? It’s a shame, really, I’m sure Dot World could be a nice place, beautiful communities, of all sorts of… topics and … discussions. You know if they had mods like ours, heh, well, you know, we might be in trouble! But they don’t! That’s why we’re the best! We only have the best people as our mods! a-little-trolling

    I sometimes wish there was a thread diffing tool or something, where I could open a thread and see all federated comments, and show which ones were federated with a given instance and which ones were not.

        That’s true actually because the instances do all the heavy lifting of federation. You would just need to query both instances for the list of comments and then render them in a single page. There are plenty of possibilities for data visualization here. It would be interesting to see, for example, where votes are coming from on a given post or comment. Or get an idea more generally of which instances are interacting with posts originate from your instance.

    It must be really weird having the last name ‘McCarthy’ with McCarthysism and such being a common -ism. If my name was an -ism I would feel personally attacked every time it was mentioned in a negative light.
